Like fire! Hellfire! [this fire in my skin]

[the Master skids to a halt when he appears on the Astral Plane, having apparently come in running. He immediately straightens out his clothing before addressing the Plane]

Right, so! Pompeii: very lacking in Super Soaker outlets. Anyone have a water gun handy?

Well I'm not exactly stupid. The Doctor wouldn't be either if he didn't insist on holding on to those Laws. I think he's never really gotten over the break-up, poor thing.

Break-up?

With Gallifrey? Messy affair. Took the cars and the kids. Then the place did a number on his new lovers and trapped him. Kept using him after that. Really sad.

[He kind of gets the metaphors, at least, but...] Trapped him?

Broke the car.

The TARDIS?

Quite! Though he did have a car. Bessie.

What..? But the TARDIS isn't broken, is it? Or did it get fixed?

Of course! They lifted the ban after he killed one of the founders of Time Lordd society for them. Well, tried to kill him. I hear he popped up later. Not the point.

They made him kill someone, first...?

The Time Lords always had the Doctor doing their dirty work.

Why the Doctor?

Because he's brilliant, and don't tell him I said it. But he's one of the brightest minds in the generation.

But that's not the only thing. They exiled him. They had plausible deniability should any other time-sensitive races accuse them of interference.

Ah...

They exiled him? But... why?

There is only one sin on Gallifrey: interference.

The Doctor and I are both sinners.

... what kind of interference?

Any kind.

But not in time. At least... the Doctor couldn't have done that, right?

As I said: every time a time traveller acts, they change history. The Doctor travelled and acted. He stopped the War Machines, fought the Daleks, and took individuals out of their time to travel with him. It's all interference.

Daleks? ... And so for that, they exiled him?

Daleks are hate-machines. Has he not mentioned them? But yes. ...They never really got around to officially exiling me.

I don't think so...

Officially?

They're hate-machines. They kill. All they do is kill.

Well, they sort of, you know, tried to use the Doctor to hunt me down on more than one occasion. But never a proper exiling.

Ah... I see...

Why? I mean.. why not do it officially?

They could never get me to a trial. Though there was one moment...
