Full Metal Time Lord!!! [action figure in stores today]

[On the ground there are three chalk circles with weird designs in them. One might even call these 'transmutation circles,' if one was so inclined. Very likely, one isn't. ]

[Sitting in the centre of the first circle is an old transistor radio.]

He destroys!

[The Master puts his hands over the circle, in glowing yellow light, the radio falls apart. Satisfied, the Master kicks the pieces over to the next circle.]

He creates!

[Hands-putting and yellow light repeat, but this time, the pieces come together and the radio is whole again. Another kick sends the radio into the final circle. This time, when he puts his hands over the circle, the radio lights on fire]

He thinks this really needs some sort of incantation. And pictograms. Pictionary, now that's an idea. Magical pictionary, now with one hundred percent more setting on fire the idiot who can't get that a pair of stars is 'binary'! Buy now for the low low price of years studying molecular structure.

[The Master starts cleaning up the alchemy circles by smudging them away with his toe. He was always a very diligent student]

[He pauses, sighs, and pulls his hand out of his pocket] I'm sorry.

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

Good boy! I'd give you a dog treat, but I don't have any on me.

[scienceandgod.livejournal.com]

I wouldn't take it. I'm not a dog.

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

You're human. That's worse.

[scienceandgod.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I'm sorry I can't be anything but. [He actually sounds a bit hurt about this. The wonders of 'you will be held back by the fact that you are only human' issues the Master has spawned]

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

Am I going to get you to cry twice already?

[scienceandgod.livejournal.com]

No. That....you're not. It's been a while since then.

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

And you're a grown man. You really need to toughen up.

[scienceandgod.livejournal.com]

I'm the way I am. Well, certainly not in your opinion, but the point stands.

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

No one is precisely as they are.

[scienceandgod.livejournal.com]

I present myself as a scholar; a man of both science and God.

What else am I?

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

Human. Weak. A man with a watch. One who has felt loss. A man filled with wonder at the universe. Ignorant. Curious. Self-sacrificial. Pacifistic. Repressed. Should I go on? It's getting dull for me.

[Arthur thinks about this for a long moment, tilting his head thoughtfully. Finally, he smiles up at the Master] You never did say. Would you like to watch the movie with me, seeing as you're going through the trouble of setting it up?

I'll be making both offers to both your Doctor and the human Doctor, of course.

I suppose someone has to stop you all from having an orgy.

[scienceandgod.livejournal.com]

Someone should also bring popcorn again, I think. Maybe two tubs this time, so that it'll be easier.

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

Four.

[scienceandgod.livejournal.com]

I wouldn't mind sharing, though.

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

Regardless, four.

[scienceandgod.livejournal.com]

Alright, if you say so. Drinks?

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

Also four.

[scienceandgod.livejournal.com]

We should stop by the bar, then, before we start. It'll sort out any irregularities in taste.

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

The way you're talking, I might even start to think you've gotten laid before.

[scienceandgod.livejournal.com]

....what do drinks have to do with having sex?

[savagestime.livejournal.com]

...forget what I just said.

[scienceandgod.livejournal.com]

You could explain it to me? If my inexperience in some form annoys you, it'd be easiest if just learned, wouldn't it?
