Title: One Giant Leap - Sequel to ‘Defining Daisy’

Author: badly_knitted

Characters: Tosh, Owen

Rating: G

Written For: Challenge 316 – Reverse Fandom – How I Met Your Mother at tw100

Spoilers: Nada.

Summary: Owen explains evolution by Rift.

Disclaimer: I don’t own Torchwood, or the characters.

A/N: Prompt at end.

Tosh looked thoughtful.

“So, there’s nothing wrong with her?”

“Not a thing. Maybe Daisy was once a regular wallaby, but we’ll never know for sure. The Rift’s alterations are retroactive. When something becomes changed, if the result is viable, those changes ripple backwards through time so that what a creature becomes is what it’s always been. As far as Daisy’s concerned, she’s never been anything else. It’s natural to her. She’s not broken, she doesn’t need fixing; she’s simply made an evolutionary leap to become a more advanced wallaby. Without such leaps, we’d still be amoebae.”

That actually made sense.

A/N2: Title used is ‘The Leap’

TBC in ‘Tidy-Minded’

Interesting concept. I never would have thought of that in a million years. And that's why you write, and I read.

*grins* Thank you! It's a Rift through space and time, who knows how long such things have been around? Maybe they're responsible for eviolution!

It does make sense :-)

I was a bit worried it wouldn't to anyone who didn't have my brain, lol! Sometimes I don't make a lot of sense!

Thank you!

It's good that Daisy is fine, and is just the way she should be. I like your explanation of the changes being throughout time, as well. Fantastic as usual!

[bk_forever]

Thank you!

I figured since the Rift is through time as well as space, any changes it masde should reflect that. I'm just glad it makes sense to other people. o_O

Interesting addition so the series.

Thank you, I thought I'd better try to explain.

Back to the fun tomorrow. Hopefully!

Whoa, I just had the strangest thought ever - what if the evolution of humans started with a leap like that which was caused by the Rift? Then we all wouldn't exist without the Rift! O.O

[bk_forever]

I've kinda thought that too. This might not be the first Rift, there might have been others at one time, which started evolution and then kept it going.

Thank you!
