The Doctor {tenth} ([personal profile] timey_wimey) wrote2008-02-14 05:44 pm

[RL - Master and Ten, Valentine's Virus~ Cardiff at first but hey, who knows where this'll end up.]

The Doctor leaned on the railing, tapping idly on the metal surface. He'd been in Cardiff for the past few hours but hadn't actually done anything. It really was odd. Ever since the day had began he'd felt agitated, as if he was waiting for something.

He'd parked the TARDIS over the Rift, since a little pitstop had never hurt anyone, but about an hour in he'd got bored of feeling agitated and on edge inside the TARDIS. And so he'd promptly gone out and spent his time feeling agitated and on edge outside the Cardiff Millennium Centre instead.

So here he was, standing and watching people go about their business. Something was going to happen soon. He just knew it.

The Master caught a ride with Kaye - but not before a good wash and shave, as whilst on Beylix he was keeping up a scruffy appearance. He knew he'd need to keep a nicer set of clothes on him for some reason. Perhaps this was it.

He made sure to appear in an out-of-the-way location, but when he did spot the Doctor... he waited, and just watched for a while. He was pacing, fidgeting, running his hand through his hair and looking about... there was something strangely touching about that. The Doctor waiting for him. He took it in, wanting to savor and remember it.

Finally the Master ambled over to him and smiled, perhaps a little bigger than he may have meant to.

"Hope I didn't keep you waiting too long."

[Steps back, genuinely surprised]

"Five hours?! You... actually waited that long?"

[He can't help but smirk at this a little.]

"Omega, did you not have anything better to do?"

[Laughs softly, looks down at shoes]

"Why am I not surprised..."

[And why do I feel so damned shy? This isn't right... He bit his lip a little and looked back up.]

"...You've any idea why we've been driven to meet here?"

[Eyes begin tracing the curve of his neck... he furrows his brow.]

"I don't feel like torturing you, for what it's worth..."

[adds quietly]

"...Which is rare."

[Your smile is infectious, Ten.]

"No, I suppose not... could've fooled me with some of the scrapes you get into, sometimes."

[Cue awkward silence. He moves to lean against the railing next to him and fiddles with his cufflinks.]

"We're supposed to be here, together. Doing what is another matter... perhaps it's a joke of the gods."

[Shrug]

"I've been away. Rather nice to get back to civilization... well, Cardiff's relative civilization. Anyway. Erm..."

[Leeeeans back on the rail. Something's coming to mind, but he's not sure he can say it. He winces. Oh, just suck it up.]

"...S'good Chinese close by. Maybe we could... Um. Or, y'know, you could just fuck off and I'll go by myself. I'm all right with that too."

[FAST FORWARD WHY NOT - to a hole-in-the-wall Chinese restaurant that may or may not actually exist within walking distance of the Millennium Centre, because I can't be arsed to check. It's dimly lit but not terribly romantic - more like boisterous and smoke-filled. Master is munching Kung Pao chicken so spicy you can practically see the heat waves. He sips a bottle of Tsingtao and gives the Doctor a dirty look.]

"If you chicken out of this, I'll fucking glass you."

[He laughs. It's a joke... ]

[Raises his eyebrows]

"I wouldn't put it past you! You've fooled me far too many times, and you were never one for drink besides."

[Cheeky grin]

"In fact I remember you sicked up the first time we drank, didn't you? That wont happen this time, right~?"

"Oh, good sport!"

[Laughs and keeps munching]

"That was years ago anyhow, centuries even. Maybe this body can hold its drink... Rassilon, I can't even remember which one I'm on."

[Siiip. Makes a little 'aww' noise.]

"You mean you never test the limits of your own body? Part of the fun of regeneration, really. I do it every time."

[Rolls the bottle in his hand.]

"I can down... about four of these, four or five, before I get pissed. 'Course I tend to prefer hard liquor..."

[Master's grin at that is lookin' a little dirty...]

"All in fun, of course~"

[Pokes at Doctor's duck with his fork]

"Mm, gimme a bite of that..."
