According to another account, the day after working deep into the night on ''[[De analysi per aequationes numero terminorum infinitas]]'' at Woolsthorpe Manor in [[1666]], ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Wild Blue Yonder (novelisation)}}) Newton came upon his idea independently after an apple fell on his head, but after the [[The Doctor's TARDIS|TARDIS]], piloted by the [[Fourteenth Doctor]] and [[Donna Noble]] crashed into the tree above him, he misheard their usage of "gravity" and named the concept "[[mavity]]". The change retroactively influenced Donna's knowledge, while the Doctor [[Complex Space-Time Event|remained aware of the original version of history]].

While working at [[Trinity College]], ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Newtons Sleep (novel)}}) [[University of Cambridge|Cambridge]], ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Entanglement (audio story)}}) "Jeova Unus Sanctus" attended [[Nate Silver|the Magus]]'s presentation at [[Salomon's House]] | While working at [[Trinity College]], ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Newtons Sleep (novel)}}) [[University of Cambridge|Cambridge]], ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Entanglement (audio story)}}) "Jeova Unus Sanctus" attended [[Nate Silver|the Magus]]'s presentation at [[Salomon's House]], having long been a correspondent of Nate Silver's. The pair bonded over Jeova's appreciation for Silver's [[The Cycle of Sun & Seed|book]], which Jeova considered to be flawed, but indicated the capacity for improvement. At the presentation, Silver revealed to him the secret of [[Egg (Newtons Sleep)|the egg]], that it spoke to him in the voice of [[Pilots' Coterie|Angels]], but Jeova rebuked him and insisting that miracles had fled from the earth, and the Egg represented only Silver's inner voice. Later, as Jeova and [[Nick Plainsong]] made love, Jeova convinced the Magus' assistant to steal the Egg, jealous that someone else had been chosen to receive it.

When [[Larissa]] and [[Aphra Behn]] encountered Jeova, Larissa recognised what was inside Jeova and attacked with the [[continuity needle]]. As Larissa struggled with [[babel (Newtons Sleep)|the babel]], time began to unravel, until Nate Silver tore the needle out of Jeova's chest. The damage to history caused by Jeova's near-erasure was undone by [[Faction Paradox]]'s rituals.
