[ In hindsight, attaching his network device to the TARDIS mainframe might have been an awful idea. Because this way the feed is taking in the entire scene playing out inside her very corridors from high up, like the device is now part security camera.

It's a mess of noise and confusion, the Doctor backed slowly down the corridor by rotting figures in Gallifreyan robes. One of them is holding a Dalek stalk between bloodied and black fingers, but he's not the one the Doctor can't look away from. Half of Rassilon's face is missing, empty skull staring at him impassively. tongue rolling in his jaw as he speaks. ] You killed us.

[ The Doctor stumbles as he skids back, away from Rassilon's outstretched hand, leaving a scrap of fabric in his grip. ] You killed us.

[ Suddenly a door slams out of nowhere, the TARDIS closing off that part of the corridor herself. Her inhabitant leans heavily on the walls, a hand idly curled into a soothing gesture. ] Thank you, dear. [ Jumping when something heavy hits the door. He can still hear the screaming coming from the other side, face a mask of pain. ] I'm sorry, I had to, I had to.

[ An alarm blares and he turns immediately, running down the corridor.

Moments later, his post now shows the console room. He's leaning against it, bruises already blooming against his jaw. A klaxon screeches from somewhere and the TARDIS lights seem dim and unhappy. He'd made sure the Master and Amy were gone, made sure he was the only one inside the TARDIS and now his hands move over a set of keys with purpose. A line of green letters appear just below him on screen
Security override: TARDIS lockdown imminent. ]

I can't let them out. [ He sounds apologetic. ] I don't know what they'd do. This is the only way. [ More firm. ] Stay in groups, stick together, don't go wandering off. Don't let them scratch or bite you. Don't let them inside your heads. [ A sigh, his shoulders dropping. He can hear the sound of feet dragging, can hear a whisper somewhere behind him. Donna. 'You let me down.' ]

Amelia? Stay safe.

[ And with that he reaches over to turn the feed off. ]

Dad?! [Um no, you do not make a post like that then try and disappear, not on, not allowed.] Dad, what's happening? Who were they?

[The Master lets out an irritated huff as he leans against the TARDIS door. Sure, just kick the only person who would be good at dealing with zombies out of the TARDIS.]

You idiot.

[Welp, he obviously hasn't got anything better to do, and he'd rather like to know why this girl is calling the Doctor 'Dad', so...]

The other Time Lords. Which, to be quite honest, he's well shut of.

But he said they were gone, that there was a war? How can they be here? And if they're his people why the retreat?

[Oh the confusion]

They didn't look too healthy either.

Other than the crushing burden of survivor's guilt he lives with on a daily basis?

The bit where the City's apparently turned them into a load of flesh-eating zombies or...whatever would probably be a decent reason.

Also the lot of them went a bit mad towards the end there. [Not that he's bitter or anything. He's the Master, he's totally bitter.]

But, yes, they're all dead outside the City. Very dead. Killed multiple times and apparently still not staying dead, which is rather annoying, if you ask me.

[Pot, kettle, black.]

[Mumbling a little] Nothing wrong with not staying dead. Time and a place for it though. Nothing here makes any sense.

He's an idiot, trying to face them alone.

Yes, well, I'm the last person to judge others for not staying dead - but they deserve to remain that way.

Plus being in a body like that is highly unenjoyable. I don't recommend it at all, unless you have no other options.

When is the Doctor ever not an idiot?

So who are you? Are you a friend of Dad's?

Yeah it doesn't look like much fun. Speaking from experience?

[Smiling a little] I don't know, I'm quite fond of his lets run away now plans.

Mm. More like the exact opposite, I'd say. And who might you be?

[Rolling his eyes. Sorry, Jenny.] Running away isn't a plan, it's simply what he does.

[She frowns slightly, weird, she wouldn't have called that] Enemies? I don't think it would be overly smart to give information away to someone who calls themself an enemy.

[She shrugs] Either way.

I prefer the term 'archnemesis'. He's got many enemies, but only one archnemesis. Or I should hope he's only got one - I'd have to have words with anybody else claiming the position.

Not even a name, then? Come on, I'll tell you mine.

Oi.

You're not allowed to get into trouble. How am I supposed to give you a pygmy puff if you do that?

[Unimpressed face.]

I would have killed them if you'd asked. And since they're in the TARDIS, I would have even forgone dousing them in petrol and lighting them on fire.

[Ugh, Doctor, why are you so Doctor-y.]

They're dead anyway, what does it matter? Your morals are ridiculous and will ultimately lead to your own downfall.

- Which, I'll admit, is generally the case regardless of the situation, but not really appropriate given the flesh-eating zombies.

Besides, he deserves it.

You mean I can come over?

I—what?

[She's not sure if she heard right, headache pounding in her ears. There's another long pause and she ventures - ]

Yes, yes, and now you're being a self-sacrificing moron, I get it. I shall, however, be extremely irritated if you actually manage to get yourself killed by a brainless zombie, if only because it's unfair that some putrefied corpse gets to succeed where I've spent so many years failing.

[Awww, it's almost like he cares.]

[He gives the Doctor an amused look.] See to it that you don't, then.
