Chapter 1, The Life and Deaths of Rory Williams

”You’re…. Ro-ry…” the Doctor says, dumbly.

”It’s a surprise for me, too!” the other responds with a bit of a shrug. “Was Rory. Not Rory anymore. Definitely, definitely not Rory-Pond anymore, Doctor.”

”Who are you?” The Doctor asks, and the other’s smile practically answers the question for him.

Ah. Right.

Who else would it be.

”The thing is, I think you already know, don’t you, Doctor? It just seems soo like me to do, doesn’t it?” he says, hands clasped together. And despite his cheerfulness, the Doctor isn’t amused, not in the slightest.

What is he supposed to say to him? Like this?

”This- I cannot believe- This is a new low even for you, you know. I can’t believe you, you were taken, you- I— I mourned you. Twice!” the Doctor yells, and despite being the one to physically hold her back- Amy was the only thing keeping the Doctor from tearing up to the other Time Lord himself.

He wasn’t sure what he’d do when he got there.

The Master seemed so self-pleased. Smiling, to hide his confirmation that he had gotten himself wrapped into something messy. He was happy to keep that distance between the three of them.

“Well, you know… Fool you once, shame on me… Fool you twice… Did you miss me?”

“… I- I didn’t even think about you after I regenerated. After Rassilon took you. Not at all.” Is all the Doctor can think to say in response.

Amy had no context for any of this. She didn’t need the Doctor to grip her shoulders that tightly, anymore. She wasn’t moving.

And the Master stared, and stared, drumming his hands on that red doorframe again. “…… Oh, you so, so, incredibly missed me then. You poor thing. And- besides, Doctor. If it’s any consolation… There is a very, very long time, between that Master and myself. And here I’d been hoping that I’d finally be able to tell you that I…”

“- What?” The Doctor cuts in sharply. “That you what?”

”… That I was only planning on being right back.” the Master says- and after half a beat, he rips out the front door. He runs past the Doctor and Amy, sprinting out ahead of either of them. And it works, because the Doctor stares for a few moments, before either of them think to run after him.

Up tonight thinking about my trans masc Rory!Master and his eventual space phallo. He'd get a mirror copy of some Doctor regen's dick. Probably Ten's. And wait out how long it takes for Eleven to notice.
