*The Master is hanging around the Nexis looking rather bored. He's never been here before but he can't say he's incredibly impressed. After the sign at the entrance though he *really* shouldn't have been expecting anything worth grabbing his attention. He does, however, have a question ( Read more... )

"You'll get the best, clearest, most intelligent answer from a dictionary." In other words, google is your friend and this sort of question isn't incredibly impressing.

*The Master shrugs and gives her an easy smile that's got slightly too many teeth to be considered entirely sane.*

"I wasn't trying to be impressive. If I wanted to be impressive you'd know. It's kinda my thing." With that he gives her another smile "I was just curious what the denizens of this place thought."

OOC: I was just being a little silly, and it's actually the kind of question he'd ask. I really didn't mean to offended you if I did. You think I should delete?

"Fair enough. What would be impressive then?" Njoki grins and offers her own rather impressive set of dentition.

((Oh gosh, no! I'm terribly sorry. Please, stay. Njoki's just a very scowly sort of hyena.))

"How about the fact I ruled the entire Earth for a year? I'd say that was fairly impressive. Of course no one remembers it, but hey, that's not my problem."

This is all said in a very light tone, but being entirely honest it's a rather bitter subject for him. Lord and Master of the entire Earth only to be defeated by the Doctor. The Master does. however, still consider his entire year a rather substantial victory.

"The resurrection thing's all well and good, but you need to be an influential cult leader before you get your own holiday for it." Gauron doesn't really have a lot of respect for Christianity.

*The Master's latched onto a particular train of thought. This translates into a rather wide grin.*

"Cult leader? Now there's a good time." He pauses for a second and tilts his head slightly to the side. "Not something I'd considered, but I think I'd be rather good at it."

"Not like it's a really difficult job. People are idiots who love to believe even ridiculous shit as long as it makes them feel all special and righteous." As a career, though, it's not for Gauron; political - or religious - ambition isn't really his thing. It'd get in the way of a lot of life's fun, for him.

"Ah! Now that I know all about. Reminds me of a particular acquaintance of mine. He's rather fond of the self-righteous routine."

"Christians are pretty into celebrating stuff about Jesus." Metody shrugs cheerfully. In honor of the holiday, his shirt is of the pastel variety of Hawaiian horrible. He's surrounded by a dozen toy frogs, each one made of bright Hawaiian print, each one about three feet tall and cheerfully smiling in that way stuffed animals have. They have ribbons around their necks with glittery easter eggs wired onto them.

"For the rest of us, it's a nice springtime holiday on which to dye eggs and give each other flowers and candy. Speaking of which, chocolate egg?" He holds out a whole bag of little foil-wrapped eggs towards the Master.

*The Master eyes the toy frogs with a slight amount of distaste, but brightens up at the mention of chocolate.*

"Now that's more like it"

* The Master takes one of the chocolate eggs from the bag and delicately extracts the silver foil from the outside leaving it completely intact. He smiles for a second, this particular gesture has reminded him of someone. After eating the Chocolate Egg the Master tilts his head to the side.*

"So this is all just about chocolate? Huh. Cults and chocolate. Perhaps you humans are fun after all."

"Not quite a cult - at least, not in my world. There's enough of them and they've had enough influence on culture that Christianity is considered a major world religion."

He happily unwraps an egg for himself and pops it into his mouth. The wrapper, he smooths down into a perfect square of pale blue foil, then folds and tucks into his pocket.

"But if you're not Christian and you're still going to celebrate the holiday, yeah, it's all about eggs and bunnies and baby chicks. And candy."

What possible use could a holiday like that be to you?

"My dear Rani, what a pleasant surprise. It doesn't have to be useful you know, because it's fun . Don't you think it'd be fun?"

Why would it be fun? It's a holiday. A human holiday, at that.

Human holidays are incredibly dull.

"Well, naturally I'd have to teach them how to celebrate in style. Easy done though. Lots of blood. And chocolate. I don't think even humans could mess that up."

Cue slightly impatient sigh from the individual of a very Rassilon-like nature over there ( ... )

*The Master waves a dismissive hand at Rassilon*

"No wonder the Time Lord's got bogged down in details when they had you as an example, *Lord* Rassilon"

Rassilons title is said with a certain amount of amusement. The Master had been told that anyone could come through the Nexus but he hadn't been expecting this.

"..though I must say I do approve of your final comment. For once you talk a certain amount of sense. I would be surprised if this wasn't a rare occurrence."
