Nah, you'd be returned to the point in time you were taken from. Things would get too unstable otherwise, too volatile.

I come from a place like's a big fan of volatile instability. Normal rules don't always apply.

I don't mean just your world. Trust me, nothing will end while you're gone, unless you're meant to be gone. If you remember dying, for instance, it might end while you're gone.

Only once and I got better.

[ A brief beat. ]

I just mean Sunnydale's a little.. different. You know, nevermind. You're probably right. [ She really doesn't have to go into this, it's best to just avoid it. ]

Tell me about it, I love different. Keeps me from getting bored.

It's not a good different.

[ She's obviously not too keen to say. Even if this place is strange, the Hellmouth's a lot more dangerous on top of the weird. Now that it's out she can at least say something that's on public record though. ]

It's probably got the highest rate of unexplained deaths of anywhere, for example. Twelve cemeteries within city limits and it is not a big city.

[ The Doctor sounds pretty oblivious to Buffy's reluctance, he sounds pretty chipper. Trouble is fun for him. ]

I'd say underground alien invasion. But yours being a different world, name like Sunnydale, cemeteries. Guessing vampires. Maybe werewolves and zombies too, just vampires would be too dull.

[ ..Yeah this whole secret thing isn't working. Well, she doesn't have to tell him about her role in it. ]

Vampires yes, werewolves are harmless all but 3 nights out of the month and are humans the rest of the time, and zombies are only harmful if the person who raised them is a jerk. Couple that with demons, magic, any supernatural anything you can ever think of and recently weird commando guys, all on top of a Hellmouth that acts as a center of mystical convergence and "dull" is the opposite of what it is.

[ A pause. ] Except leprechauns. Leprechauns aren't real.

They do exist. Never play cards with them, almost lost my TARDIS playing against one once.

Not in my dimension they don't. What's a TARDIS?

Unless there's no universe outside your Earth, they do exist. Just not in your planet.

The TARDIS is my ship.

Lots of things have the power to leave Earth and not one of them has said anything about leprechauns.

[ They usually go to other dimensions but if they can go to earth it stands to reason at least one of them would've tried other planets. ]

Your time traveling spaceship? [ He's an alien, it's gotta be a spaceship too. ]

Yep. Time And Relative Dimension In Space, best ship in the universe.

You're not bias at all are you?

[ She's just teasing. ] Can I see it?

I'm being objective. Don't have it with me, though. Only one TARDIS here and it's the older version's one, I'm sure he'll give you a tour if you ask.

Wait, so you get more than one time traveler and only one ship?

No, no. We're the same person and it's the same ship. Problem is my TARDIS didn't come with me, sort of figured she didn't feel like crossing her own timeline.

Crossing your own timeline would probably mean things like accidentally making you not exist in the future to come back and exist in the past, so you couldn't have been there in the first place, right?

[ Hey, she watches movies with Xander sometimes. Or watched. And she's used to weird on top of that. ]

Something like that, yeah. I'm usually good at avoiding paradoxes— well, good considering, and this place isn't causing any but there were two other versions of me when I first arrived, each with their own TARDIS. Having three of them would've been pushing it.

So even though apparently this place has no effect on back home you're worried about paradoxes involving your TARDIS but not my near-constant apocalypse situation with only one person who can take care of that?

Not worried about paradoxes back in my universe, I'm worried about paradoxes here. My universe will be fine, just like yours.

Wouldn't paradoxes mess with like, everything? Or am I just thinking of way too many movies?

Normally, yes. But as far as I can tell we're completely separate from out actual time lines here. If my being here had caused any trouble at home then the other Doctor wouldn't exist.

Okay. What if my world has access to alternate and parallel dimensions using the right magic normally? Like not just separate planets. I mean me personally? No go. But there are definitely people who could.

[ She hasn't had the idea of being able to actually relax and just be a girl in so long. ]

Still not the same thing as this place. Trust me, New Moore is completely locked away, I'd be able to see if it wasn't— no pun intended.
