Howling:Amy Pond's existence

Okay, how could Amy Pond still exist when her parents were retroactively erased from all points in time? Explain. 194.168.208.42 10:13, September 12, 2011 (UTC)

Her parents were erased, not her. Boblipton 10:49, September 12, 2011 (UTC)

and i also believe that this topic is already being discussed in another thread about the cracks Imamadmad 11:03, September 12, 2011 (UTC)

What, so Amy just popped out of nowhere one day? Yeah, right, that I can believe.....82.2.136.93 15:06, September 12, 2011 (UTC)

Even though they always say that people have been erased from time, the way the cracks work seems to be that people almost just dissapear with everyone forgetting about them. There are smaller examples of this when Rory was erased and the Doctor still had his engagement ring and there was a picture of him in Amy's house. There was a similar deal with the clerics. One would think that if those clerics had never existed the church would have sent different clerics instead of them, but instead Amy just ended up on her own. While the cracks erase people, they do not seem to erase their impact on the universe. It doesn't quite make sense, but that's how they work.Icecreamdif 15:50, September 12, 2011 (UTC)

Where did Amy come from? That's one of those things that people don't talk about. Every family has stuff like that, and sometimes it's because it's a disgrace and sometimes it's because you've talked about it so long that no one discusses it any more. And suddenly, it's a secret. I'm sure the local gossips whispered that Sharon wasn't relly her aunt, while Sharon was too busy to think of these things with a troublesome young niece to add to the worries of an effectively single parent. Besides, she looks like a boozer to me. Boblipton 17:07, September 12, 2011 (UTC)

Well, it certainly never occured to Amy that it was odd that she didn't have any parents. One of the effects of the crack seems to be that people don't notice the paradoxes it creates. One would think, for example, that the last cleric to be erased would find it weird that he was left alone with Amy, or that at the end of the episode they would be wondering why they went to that planet in the first place, but the cracks seem to somehow stop them from realizing the inconsistencies it creates.Icecreamdif 18:52, September 12, 2011 (UTC)
