Time Turner comes to Rockville on official geological business; unfortunately that business involves greenlighting a project to destroy the Painted Hills, a local natural wonder and a fondly remembered foalhood locale of local rock farmer, Maud Pie. Unhappy with his assignment, Time seeks Maud's help in saving the landmark by uncovering an ancient secret. The more time they spend together in the hills, the more their weirdness seems to fit together... Oh, yes and Maud's pet rock turned jealous ex, Boulder is trying to kill them which appears connected to it all in some strange way.
Maud Pie x Dr. Whooves
The 'sex' tag is purely for some innuendo but the story does contain hot fossil collecting action.

Cover by me, as always.
So that's Boulder taken care of...but what about Tom?!

Wait... There's another one?
The dry, perfectly straight delivery of this whole story just puts this over the top, awesome work. I was snerking all this chapter reading it.

Thank you! I think to get the most out of this story it's kind of paramount to hear Maud's dialogue in Maud's voice.
This was really good! Despite notably not going for the "Doctor Whooves is Doctor Who" fanon with Time Turner, this in many ways felt like a Doctor Who story. This also had a fun mix of slice of life with the fantastical, which is what really makes MLP fics work. Also, I never considered Maud and Time Turner, but you made that pairing great here.
I also appreciated the bits with the buffalo paralleling real life, including the fact that no one thought to ask the buffalo any information until late in the story, lol.

Thank you. And thanks for being just the 100th person to read the most niche and possibly the most bizarre story I've ever written. I guess if we make Time Dr. Who then Boulder must be a weeping angel.
