This is just how I picture their dynamic. In the end, neither is truly successful in their attempts to change one another, it all just sort of evens out. 🤷♀️😂

In Boom, the Doctor recites a poem about the moon and the President's wife. This is intriguing, considering that Missy told Clara that she had cared about the Doctor "since the night he stole the moon and the President's wife" in The Magician's Apprentice. However, in Hell Bent, the Doctor claimed that that story had been a lie. Instead, it had been the President's daughter and that he had lost the moon.
Later on, in Rogue, we saw an image of the Shalka Doctor among the Doctor’s other faces. This is relevant because the Shalka Doctor had fallen in love with the President's daughter while he was on Gallifrey, but she had been killed by an alien race. The Master had aided the Doctor in repelling this alien race but had lost his physical body in the process, leading to the Doctor building him an android body. As a result of the President's daughter's death, the Doctor and the Master were sent on dangerous missions by the Time Lords that retreated into the Matrix. The transfer of the Master's consciousness into an android body ties into The Time of the Doctor, when the Doctor mentioned that he had had an android boyfriend. In this essay, I-

Guide to Jedi Ranking Terminology
I see a lot of confusion about this in fic, so I thought I’d make a post about it. I hope it’s helpful!
Youngling refers to a child— not just a Jedi child, but any child. A child who has been inducted into the Jedi Order is called an initiate. A Jedi initiate is generally addressed by their name, without a title— though sometimes they will be referred to as “young [Name]” by their elders.
A Padawan, Padawan learner, or Jedi apprentice is an initiate who has been apprenticed to a master for formal training. Padawans are not always teenagers; for example, Obi-Wan Kenobi was a Padawan well into his twenties, while Ahsoka Tano, at fourteen years of age, was still considered a youngling at the start of her apprenticeship. They are generally addressed as “Padawan [Name.]”
A Jedi Knight is a Jedi who has been knighted— that is, completed their apprenticeship. The term Jedi Knight refers to any fully-trained Jedi, whether they have attained the rank of master or not. They are generally addressed as “Master [Name,]” not “Knight [Name.]”
A Jedi Master is a Jedi Knight who has been officially recognized as being especially proficient in the Force, typically for training an apprentice to knighthood. They are generally addressed as “Master [Name.]”
A Grandmaster or Grand Master is a Jedi who has been named head of the Order. There is usually, but not always, only one Grandmaster at a time. The Grandmaster is typically recognized in an official capacity as the wisest and oldest member of the Order. They are generally addressed as “Master [Name.]”
Master of the Order, also known as Master of the Council or Grand Master of the Jedi High Council, is the head of the Jedi Council. Prior to the Clone Wars, this title was distinct from that of Grandmaster. For example, Yoda was head of the Order, but Mace Windu was head of the Council. As such, Yoda deferred to Windu on Council matters, such as when the decision to train Anakin Skywalker as a Jedi Knight was ratified by the Council. During the Clone Wars, Windu stepped down from the position to take a more active role on the battlefield, though he remained on the Council; the position was then filled by Yoda. The Master of the Order is generally addressed as “Master [Name.]”
All Jedi above the rank of Padawan are addressed as “Master [Name.]” When one does not know a Jedi’s name, “Master Jedi” is used, such as when Taun We greeted Obi-Wan Kenobi on Kamino.
