* ''Synopsis'': ''Doctor Who'' / ''[[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic|My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic]]'' crossover (WAIT! SIT DOWN, I'm going somewhere with this). Equestria experiences a series of strange events, culminating with an eccentric brown stallion literally falling out of the sky in a smoldering blue box. In her bid to get answers, Twilight embroils herself and her friends in an ancient war between two powerful races, one that may well destroy the multiverse with the aid of a [[Eldritch Abomination|Horror From Beyond]].

** Here's a hint: The two races are NOT the Time Lords and the Daleks, you've likely never heard of one of these races, even you Whovians out there. Yes, that was a challenge.

** While the Identity of the races isn't a secret {{spoiler|(the Hervoken are named in the first sentence, a clear description of Carrionites follows later in the chapter)}}, not only is it a treat for those who've seen [[Doctor Who/Recap/NS/S3/E02 The Shakespeare Code|The Shakespeare Code]] and read the [[Doctor Who Expanded Universe|New Series Adventure]] [http://tardis.wikia.com/wiki/Forever_Autumn Forever Autumn] but also an amazing {{spoiler|Re-imagining of the [[My Little Pony|MLP Movie villains Hydia, Draggle, and Reeka]] as Carrionites}}.

* ''Comments'': A more ambitious read than others as it is written as a [[Word of God|Doctor Who episode first, and a crossover second]]. Very solid writing and spot-on characterizations can be found in this cool fic. If you give it a chance and get past the [[Crack Fic|head scratching]] nature of the premise and this fic becomes a tightly written joy to read. The Doctor's characterization as 'Ten-but-a-pony' creates some very interesting (read: hi-freaking-larious) interactions with the MLP main cast and also makes for some truly awesome moments, his lines are best read in a David Tennant voice. The characterizations of the ponies is spot on, beyond my ability to convey in words actually, so it is better read than told. GO. READ.

** Seconded here, ithe quality of the writing and characterisation speaks for itself, but it also gets points for the way it it makes things [[Darker and Edgier]] while more optimistic and cheerful at the same time. The way it expands on the Friendship is Magic univerise and the sheer depth it goes into things is amazing.

* ''Coments'': Dalek Sec [[Unexplained Recovery|inexplicably survives his death]] in [[Doctor Who/Recap/NS/S3/E04 Daleks in Manhattan|Daleks in Manhattan]] (somehow negating the whole [[Half-Human Hybrid]] thing along the way), and ends up tracking Homura's shield through Mitakihara.

** Comartemis: There is nothing in the world that is quite as sweet as a Dalek talking morals with an Incubator, declaring their methods to be repulsive, and ''[[Even Evil Has Standards|meaning it]]'' without a trace of irony. If you despise the Incubators and would love to see QB's [[Omniscient Morality License]] shoved back down his throat, I guarantee you that Sec is going to be your new best friend.
