"No Zerum that's... Oh butter... Oi! DITZY DONT D- oHMy ButTeR LorDs MASTER GET AWAY FRO- ZERUM! STAY INSIDE THE TARDIS!" Zerum turns and looks at me, her eyes shining curiously in the light. The other two stop their mischief, walking vet and sitting down- following their oldest sisters lead. "Wat does tawdis meen?" She fumbles out, still learning to talk. I sigh thankfully and sit down in front of the small crowd, thinking of a way to explain. By now the children know most other live in houses - and I've chased after a dalek once in it. (The children stayed with ditzy a mum, of course) "well," I begin " People assume that time is a strict progression of cause to effect, but it's actually from a non-linear, non-subjective viewpoint - it's more like a big ball of wibbly wobbly... time-y wimey... stuff. And the Tardis can go through the it all! It's name is technically Time And Relative Dimension In Space... But that's big words, and I don't like bothering with those to much!" I kiss Zerums forehead lightly as she giggles. Derpy walks through the door with the supplies for dinner, and I stand to go help her carry them all.
