A Sunday Doctor Who Poll

[seren_ccd]

I'm doing some plotting and writing today (does it count if the writing is in a notebook and not on a computer?) and I've run into a question.

I'm writing the next bit in the Eleven/Amy series and it's going all wibbly-wobbly, timey-whimey on me. And my question is this:

How much influence do you think the TARDIS has over where they end up? My mind is drawing a bit of a blank, but I'm sure she's deposited the Doctor in places where he needed to do something, even if he doesn't know he needed to do something.

So, because I like polls:

[Poll #1674581]

Matt and Karen look adorable and thank you for helping!!!

My icon says my opinion. *chuckles*

Okay ... my view of the TARDIS is this ...
She is a sentient coral from a planet in the same system as Gallifrey. The corals are converted, mathematically, and become time ships.
Normally, she would not have been allowed to bond as closely with the Doctor. I picture TARDIS' and Time Lords being rotated through duties to prevent the intense attachment.
She cares for the Doctor and, in their own way, they are a couple. Bound to care for one-another, they travel.
I believe she is sensitive to the will of the time vortex and the Doctor's own desires to "fix things." And to this end, she picks out locations to land in. I think the pinpoint accuracy of landings has to do with her will. He can set the locations but if she doesn't want to go then, she deviates from the settings.
I believe she remembers every piece of her time with the Doctor. Even times that were erased, such as "Turn Left." And, moving rooms around is just 'playing' with the Doctor and showing other forms of her affection and love for him.

Whew ... I see I am quite opinionated about the TARDIS. *chuckles*

Aw...*hugs icon*

This! I think this hits the nail on the head. Since she has all of time and space inside of her, she's got rather good direction. Thanks!

Trust me. My Time Lord muse has very specific tardis views. *chuckles* She tends toward the mystic though.

I believe, after all the centuries they've been together, that they share the same wanderlust. The argument could be that she never moves. I believe she lives vicariously through her link to the Doctor.
