thoughtformed | All right. So.

There are two plans. Only one of them can work (if either of them actually works), and I've got no right to make that decision for you all.

Plan A is to power the TARDIS up as much as I can. Burn off every room except the control room, then pump all that energy and the power from the engines into the shields. That means there will be room for twenty, maybe thirty people inside if you squeeze in tight. Donna, Master, Rose, Amy, Rory-- you'd be in charge of keeping the shields stable. Other than that spots would be first come, first serve. IF the force-field around the island can soak, oh, maybe half of the impact of the comet, then there's maybe a fifty percent chance everyone inside the TARDIS would survive.

Plan B is to get everyone on board the TARDIS. Absolutely everyone. Then we wait for the last moment, after the meteor hits. If we can dematerialize in between the time the force-field goes down and the shockwave hits, we could get away. If the force-field goes down before the tsunami hits or the volcano goes off or the island breaks apart. AND if the force-field is what's been keeping the TARDIS pinned in place here, which I'm not sure of.

Everyone gets a vote, but until I've got your vote, absolutely nobody goes aboard.

And how do you vote we deal with the post-impact aftermath?

One crisis at a time!

That's assuming the force-field works the side s, both sides, Doctor. We have no way of knowing whether or not it'll be affected at all. But on the off chance that it is, I'd like to fit in as many people as possible.

Fair enough. Get the most important ones over here, then, as soon as they've had their votes.

Aye, aye, Doctor.

How many will fit?

Until we know which plan we're going with, call it twenty more.

plan a

All right.

Door's open. We're waiting for you.

wwait
are you serious

Of course! I said we'd be bringing you along on the next ride, didn't I?

That's generous of you!

B. Save everybody or nobody, right?

Good lad! Get the little girl with the hat and leg it over here!

Molly. I was thinking maybe I could help with the power issue instead.

No reason not to do both! Easier to get access to the power relays inside, in any case!

I'd like to put in a vote for Plan C.

Out of left field! All right, I'm listening. What's Plan C?

It's complicated to explain.
But I think you should know there isn't any reason to worry.

You already know my vote.

Of course I do!

Come on, flying like that's going to take split-second timing! I could use a metacrisis at the helm with me!

Right! Really, where else would I be?

And what if it's not the force field that's keeping us stuck here but the lack of a proper vortex?

Then Plan B is doomed!

Haven't we got anything to...move that instead? [She'd say the planet, but she doesn't trust it's not moored on something that'll be lost if they can.]
