(no subject)
[seated in an ornate armchair, speaking in fluent, articulate, and rather pleasant-to-the-ears Gallifreyan]
It's actually a bit disgusting, hearing you lot speak Gallifreyan so primitively. Like chanting off - no, that metaphor's incomprehensible without a background in high mathematics. Fine. Like writing Calculus and finding everyone else doing basic algebra.
[then he changes to Russian - less articulate, of course, but he's comfortable with the language]
This one, though, this one's a bit ironic. Look at me, the Master, the deathless, blathering on in Russian. Haven't been in ages, should probably go back and put a few more legends into the locals.
[sips from his wine, and slips back into Gallifreyan]
At least the people of the city still understand me.

Italian (Yeah, he feels more than a little jipped, here)
[wild, irritated gesturing]
Gallifreyan (Whiner, No Whining)
[sets down the wine glass and taps his temples]
Actually, you know what? I don't think I want to engage in Contact with you.
[a simpering expression, and then throws his hands out in something like a shrug, before pulling out a notepad and pen, then tosses it to the Doctor]
Italian (Swiper, don't swipe!)
I'm only going to write in Italian, too. And I have very little desire to play Pictionary.
Hmm...I wonder how you'd draw what I'm thinking, anyway.
Gallifreyan (Master the Explorer is possibly going to hit you)
You can draw the pictures, or we're playing charades. Your choice!
And yes, I'm calling you stupid with my face.
[stands and walks up to the Doctor, nodding at the paper, then moving his hand in a circle in a way which possibly means 'or,' followed by the charades symbol for 'movies']
Italian (Please say he keeps the little pink backpack!)
No, no, no, nonononono. There's got to be another way. Someone who speaks both our languages, maybe? Sort of like in I Love Lucy---
Lucy! Lucy speaks Italian and----well, she might not anymore.
[siiiiiiiighs, then draws three crude stick figures with talking bubbles and puts numbers in the bubbles. Person speaks 1 to the middle person, then the middle person speaks 2 to the other]
Gallifreyan (Backpack, shirt, and haircut)
[grabs the notebook and puts a great big 'x' over the Doctor's picture, then holds it back out to the Doctor]
Italian (The backpack IS bigger on the inside)
Gallifreyan (Dora: secretly Gallifreyan?)
Italian (I wouldn't be surprised, that saucy minx has to have some secrets)
Right, well, I was holding back.
[throws a right that says 'This is for shagging Rose Tyler' in the language of punch]
Gallifreyan (More Time Lords around than I thought!)
I like your other you better. This is why I didn't make Contact with you and this is why I chose to die.
[his left hook says, 'I still haven't forgiven you for - well, anything!'
The kick is punctuation.]
Italian (Like Mary Poppins and Santa Claus?)
[runs full force to hit the Master in the stomach with his shoulder, hopefully to knock him down]
Gallifreyan (Santa Claus? Really? I just thought he was Finnish)
Italian (That sleigh HAS to travel in time)
Gallifreyan (Finnish people can time-travel!)
Italian (Why don't I live in Finland? *pout*)
[not giving in, though he does falter at certain unpleasant kicks and ends up losing control of the fight]
Gallifreyan (Because you're not cool enough)
[the Master shall now attempt to destroy the Doctor's leg support and punch his right shoulder, taking advantage of the momentum to knock the Doctor over and, hopefully, pin him to the ground.]
Italian (Says the one talking in Gallifreyan...)
[cries out at the kick and falls to his back, then kicks outward, trying to roll them both over and the Doctor back on top]
Gallifreyan (What's that supposed to mean?)
Nice, how 'Master' was the only bit of that I could understand.
Italian (What do you think it means?)
Funny how all I could understand out of that was the Master.
Gallifreyan (I don't like you anymore)
Italian (You say that now, but I know you love me)
Now that we're at least matched...
Gallifreyan (I do not. I hate you. Forever.)
[this time, the foot's aimed at the Doctor's shins]
Italian (But I love you. See, I bought you chocolate!)
One of these days we're going to have a decent conversation without fighting. Today is not that day.
[and cue a few swears at the Master's kicks fall true]
Gallifreyan (I know you; you're just using me!)
[breaks his head free, but ends up smashing the side of his head into the ground, leaving him dizzy]
Italian (Yeah, but you like it)
[forearm to the chest to pin him to the ground]
Gallifreyan (...well, yes)
Italian (At least you can admit it)
Gallifreyan (First step to recovery)
Italian (cause I didn't forget to fill this in)
Gallifreyan (I say nothing)
Re: Gallifreyan (I say nothing)
Gallifreyan
Italian (Yes, I lose)
Gallifreyan (I tried not to mention it)
Italian (I appreciate the politeness)
Gallifreyan (I try)
Italian (So, forgive me?)
Gallifreyan (Always! After persuasion, anyway)
Italian (God I suck at remembering)
Gallifreyan (You sort of d--I mean, no, of course not!)
Italian (*cries*)
Gallifreyan (Aww, come on, it's okay)
Italian (But you're breaking my heart!)
Russian (Would hugtime work?)
Italian (it might?)
Russian (*hugs*)
Italian (huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuugs!)
Russian (hugshugs!)
Italian (Squee for happy hugs during angsty scene)
Gallifreyan (I just now paused to consider what that would sound like in Italian)
Italian (squeediama?)
Gallifreyan (Ti amo, Padrone)
Italian (True dat, yo.)
Gallifreyan (...you did not just respond to an Italian love confession with gangsta)
Italian (It's DC love, yo)
Gallifreyan (Yeah-huh, sure)
Italian (The multiple languages, the odd level of malevolence, the Dora reference...it's DC)
Gallifreyan (DC is quite special, then, isn't it?)
Italian (You have no idea)
Gallifreyan (
Italian =D
Galliferyan :D;
Italian (it's the language of looooove)
Gallifreyan (It's the language of maaaaaaths)
Italian (*ph33rs the maaaaaaths*)
Gallifreyan (Surely you love the maths?)
Italian (Maths and I had a fight back in grade school, haven't been the same since)
Gallifreyan (I think I'm in an abusive relationship with maths)
Italian (Have you ever thought how sweet your life could be if you just let maths go?)
Gallifreyan (But I love maths!!)
Italian (You only think you love maths.)
Gallifreyan (I know I do! Our love is true!)
Italian (If it's true, then why does it hurt so much?)
Gallifreyan (Love hurts)
Italian (But true love heals!)
Gallifreyan (Not before it scars you!)
Italian (I bet maths is just counting the scars! It's a mockery of love!)
Gallifreyan (No, maths loves me! It said so!!)
Italian (You should leave maths before you waste your life!)
Gallifreyan (Maths is my life!)
Italian (You can have more to your life! Think about how much English loves you!)
Gallifreyan (English isn't serious about me)
Italian (You can't really believe that.)
Gallifreyan (Come on. English is never serious about anything)
Italian (English writes epic love poems. For you!)
Gallifreyan (for /everyone/)
Italian (It's all a front because English is too shy to talk to you)
Gallifreyan (Not true. English is a whore. Can you name a language it hasn't been with?)
Italian (American. They're a different species.)
