Ohhhh delicious! This was quite fun to read!

"...but miracles were a favorite hobby of the time-traveling ship." I particularly liked this line because, how very true.

:D! This was just a silly little story, so I'm glad you thought it was fun to read.

The TARDIS is both a giant plot object and a plot quick-fix; the miracles kind of come with the job.

This was very fun to read! I loved the rhyming and the details about the minerals cause the water to glow different colors on each of the moons.

"Oh my god," she said breathlessly. "They have rhinoceros heads."

"Don't be ridiculous," the Doctor said. "Rhinoceroses have Judoon heads. Still," he added, "staying away from the Judoon, that's not a bad idea."

This exchange is just so the Doctor! I loved it.

Yay, I'm glad you liked it! I love silly little fics like these, but this was my first time writing one.

I really like that line too; as far as the Doctor is concerned, everything was alien before it was human. Or, well, Earth.
