You guys, Ms. Frizzle is a Time Lord.
Yes, like Ms. Frizzle from The Magic School Bus.
I am absolutely certain of this.
Think about it. She's got a sentient school bus that can change its shape and size, travel through time and space, and, when necessary, turn into a frog. And how are all the kiddies able to fit comfortably in there, when we all know that school buses are cramped, miserable dens of used gum and rejected lunches? Highly advanced model TARDIS, obviously.
Her wardrobe's way more out-there than anything the Doctor's ever donned, and I am including Six in these calculations.
She's just as cavalier about taking the kids to other planets and into volcanos and such as the Doctor is. And "Take, chances, make mistakes, get messy!"? Tell me you can't hear the Doctor saying something like that in at least one of his incarnations.
Conclusion: Ms. Frizzle = Time Lord.
You know, I'm fair certain that my seven-year-old self suspected that she was some sort of alien. It's gratifying to know that I was totally right.
The really shameful part of this is that I suddenly want to write crossover fic, in spite of the fact that it would be bad and wrong and my childhood shows are supposed to be off-limits for this sort of thing.
But I wanna write it anyway. HELP.
This has been today's Spontaneous Geekout. Thank you, and have a pleasant afternoon.
[ETA] While we're on the subject of insane crossovers, Doctor vs. GlaDOS would be amazing. Yeah, yeah, the Doctor's gone against insane computers before, I know, but...still. It's GlaDOS. Of course it'd be awesome.
Although they'd have to get the Doctor to stop fiddling with the Aperture Gun first, I suppose.

And yes, that is brilliant. Brilliant and sad. Thank you for pointing it to me!

And so is James Bond.

But is Q a Time Lord as well?
(no subject)
(Actually, I suspect everyone in that division is a Time Lord. It's probably a CIA Project.)
(no subject)
omfg, you're totally right! Somehow, this just makes her show even better, not diminished. Also, also, also--I can has The Invasion nao!!!1
(no subject)
YES IT DOES. Because you know that she occasionally had to jet off in the bus once school let out and save the universe or something.
And yay for The Invasion! Weekend plans, methinks?
(no subject)
You know it.
Weekend plans foshizzle, as Kaylie likes to sometimes say.

Gah, I miss that show....
and if you don't write that crossover I may have to.Yay for Spontaneous Geekouts :)
(no subject)
And I can't make any promises, but I want to write this crossover so badly that certain school-related topics might just have to take a backseat...
againI would love to see what you do with it, though. ;)(no subject)

And a crossover is totally legit. I would read it.

And after the initial burst of [name]-is-so-a-Time-Lord posts, there needs to be a ficathon.

Hee! I wouldn't recommend getting into it if you're not looking for another show to watch, because this fandom is like a black hole of distraction. :D That said, I regret nothing.
