[the Master is pleasantly humming something]

I do have to say, I'm rather warming up to all this business.

[quietly]

And if he'd severed an artery? Aimed higher?

I would have been fine enough.

You have a very odd definition of 'fine'.

Perhaps.

[he then smiles]

Of course, it doesn't matter, my dear Doctor.

[he tilts his head slightly]

No?

Seeing as he did neither, at the moment, I find there is very little cause to speculate over what he could have done or might have done.

Oh, I think it's very significant, if you might be put into that situation again.

No, Doctor. I believe in that, you are highly mistaken.

Why is that, Master? I think you're failing to think this through. Rather reckless of you, really.

It is none of your concern how I plan things. I assure you, I know what I am doing.

I'm afraid I'm not entirely convinced.

Isn't that just too bad for you?

I apologise if I'm nagging, Master, but I'd be quite put out if you got yourself killed.

Oh, I do think you'd get over it, my dear Doctor.

[he blithely waves his hand]

As I said, it's of no matter.

I think you underestimate your importance. Not something I'd expect of you.

I underestimate nothing, Doctor. I simply think you're the sort that could manage to find the internal fortitude to soldier on.

Naturally, but I'd go on about it mournfully.

Of course, I'd doubt if you said you could otherwise.

So I'd really rather you didn't. Grief is distracting.

[he snorts]

As I've said, I doubt I'll be in the same situation.

Am I wrong in assuming that you're dealing with the same person?

Of course not.

Then you must understand my concern.

You must understand, my dear Doctor, I am choosing to disregard your concern.

All I ask is that you be cautious. And do try to avoid spectacles.
