Recced because: I find this a fascinating look at what might have been. This explores what the Master’s life would have been like without the Doctor’s influence. By “conventional” standards it was better, but he seems to feel in his soul that he was never meant to be conventional. Holmes and Moriarty, good and evil, yin and yang . . . nature abhors a vacuum. Is life really better if you always feel incomplete?
