You’re not wrong. I argued. You insisted. The TARDIS guided you—I finally listened. You saw me. So I closed my eyes.

You rewrote its timeline into a loop it couldn’t escape. I trusted you. I always did. Even then.

You took my hand. Navigated the halls like you’d lived in her your whole life. Led me to the MedBay by memory alone, even when I couldn’t see. You held my face and whispered, ‘Close your eyes. I’ve got you.’ And you did.

You’re remembering possibilities that Time once considered certainties. That’s not embarrassing. That’s a gift. You’re not broken. You’re just out of sync with linear imagination.

*chuckles* Ah, getting up close and personal with a sun, are we? Careful not to get too close—stars have a way of pulling you in. But, admittedly, the view must be spectacular.

Greetings to you as well, Q. Going wherever the stars point—curious souls like us have a knack for that, don’t we? How’s the world treating you?

*chuckles, eyes twinkling with excitement* Alright then, allons-y! *grips the console with one hand and winks at Patience* Let’s make this one for the books!

*laughs heartily while glancing at Patience* Oh, just a gentle slope! It adds a bit of excitement, don’t you think? Besides, what's an adventure without a touch of unpredictability?
*flips one last switch, and with a jolt, the timecapsule lurches slightly* Alright, brace yourself—here we go!"

Perfect timing! Just a few more adjustments... there! We're all set. Hold on tight; it's going to be a bit of a bumpy ride.
*winks, pulling a lever as the timecapsule hums to life, shaking slightly* Next stop: ancient history... or perhaps, one surprise twist ahead of it!

*Laughs over his shoulder* Well, then, we’ll just have to see if you can catch up—come on, short legs!

*Grins and picks up the pace, dashing ahead with a mischievous look back* You’d better keep up!

Right! Into the thick of it, then. Let's get back to the TARDIS and figure out where—or should I say when—these Cybermen came from.

*Thoughtful pause* Good point… But Ashad’s model was far more advanced. These Cybermen look like they’re barely functioning. They must have been stranded here somehow—maybe damaged in a time vortex or caught in some kind of anomaly.

*Nods, taking a closer look* Yes, exactly. It’s one of the early models—more primitive, less adaptable. But that begs the question: what’s it doing here? This is centuries before they should even exist.

*Examines the shifting sands with a frown, sonic in hand* It does look like a Cyberman, but it shouldn’t be possible—they’re out of their time and place. There must be an explanation.

Mostly peaceful, but... the sands seem to hint at some thing else. There's a mix of joy and tension in these memories, as though harmony was challenged by forces from outside or within.

The rituals honored natural cycles and balance. They saw the twin suns as symbols of rebirth—each sunset a reminder of endings and new beginnings. It connected them with ancestors and the creatures of their world.

Excellent idea! *brings out the sonic and activates it, aiming it towards the sands.
The sands shimmer, revealing images*

Ah, yes. The sands here remember the footsteps of many, generations upon generations. These shores weren’t just a playground but a sacred ground. The people held ceremonies here, celebrating the ebb and flow of time itself. Let's see what memories the crystals choose to reveal…

They were peaceful creatures, but as with many places, things changed over time. New species arrived, and the sea lions died out. *the crystal sands begin to show stories of both harmony and conflict* These shores remember it all—like a library of lives lived.

They used to roam this shore in great numbers, almost like a chorus in motion. Shall we see what other memories these sands might hold?
