were_lemurDoctor Who, Shalka!Doctor/Shalka!Master, all ages, not mine. While creating the Master's android body, the Doctor finds an unexpected problem.
"What do you think you're doing." The Master's synthesized voice is flat, but the Doctor imagines he hears disapproval anyway.
He looks up from modeling the face for the Master's android body. "I would have thought it was obvious."
"It looks like, my first body."
He might almost have taken the pause for a processing error. Almost. "You object?"
"I'm not, him, anymore."
Not Koschei, he realizes. "You don't want to look like an android forever, do you?"
"You've made it clear that I will not leave the TARDIS, Doctor. My appearance is a matter of your comfort, not mine."
