*clang* *clang* *clang*Uh-oh! Thyberthonieth!
What?
Thyberthonieth.
Can't understand you with your sonic screwdriver in your mouth, Doc.
I thaid Thyberthonieth!
Cyberponies? What the hay are Cyberponies?
"DELETE! DELETE! DELETE!"
Whoa!
*sigh* Thoth are Thyberthonieth.

My submission for and the theme for this week, A Robotic or Mechanical Pony.
But if it weren't for the theme, I actually would have used Daleks instead, because Daleks are cool baddies. The Cybermen(ponies)...eh...they have their moments, but they're not my favorite baddies. That gosh-awful stomping around they do drives me up the wall, honestly.
Anyway, you're probably surprised by the fact that I used Rainbow Dash to serve as the Doctor's companion instead of the usual Derpy. Let me assure that this wasn't because I have anything against Derpy or her being with the Doctor. Actually, I quite like that duo and wholeheartedly support it. But I wanted to do something a little different and be a little more creative, and RD struck me as a good potential companion for the Doctor.
This pic actually turned out much better than I was expecting, I'm quite pleased with it.
...have I mentioned that I've been watching Doctor Who (for the first time) lately?
Cyberpony designs modeled after the work of , as it happened to serve as good reference material.
EDIT: I used this pic as a cover for this fanfic .

Dash would make a great companion. In fact, each of the mane cast can add their own touch as one of the many companions of the Doctor.

Yeah, they all would. The only two that would really cause trouble is Fluttershy, because she's so timid and frightened (dunno how she'd really react to life in the TARDIS) and Pinkie Pie because she's so sporadic...but they're both certainly doable.
In this case, I was looking for a companion that would fit the ticket well, but at the same time wasn't one that had been done (too often) before, and RD struck me as the best.

Now I want to write Dash as a companion with the Doctor. I've already done Derpy (with Dinky tagging along) and Twilight, so Dash would be a cool choice to write with. And Rarity would be a good Donna with him. Oh, so many choices.

Actually, I'm already sort of a step ahead of you on that; I did start writing a fanfic, a brief one-shot, with RD as the Doc's companion, using this pic as a prompt for the plot.
Dunno if I'll do anything further with it after that, though. As much as I like the idea, and Doctor Whooves, it is a bit overdone, and I'm not sure if I could really offer anything new to it all.

True, it is a tad overdone, and yet, Doctor Who keeps doing it and brilliantly at that. In fact, BBC America is showing 'The Angels Take Manhattan' right now, so there's that. Not everyone (or everypony) has the same reaction to the Doctor's sudden appearance.
Anyway, I wish you best with the one-shot of the Doctor and Dash!

You have no idea how happy I am that someone remembers Ace.
