MEME: Comment here to find out what the Seventh Doctor really thinks of your character. The truth, I mean, not just what he'd tell you.

AND SO I SHALL!

The Seventh Doctor on the Master (possibly just as dirty as it sounds, I do not know...):

Well, I'm not the first and certainly not the last person to believe that the Doctor/Master relationship is about as complex as any relationship in the history of TIME could hope to be. And I'm thankful I get to just play it and watch it and don't have to be involved in that mindfuckery. That being said, it's really just about the best fodder for analysis and fic, simply because it is so complex. Every time I think I've got the Doctor's opinion of the Master down, I remember a certain event, or imagine something that might've happened, and then it forces me to reevaluate things.

Indeed. And I can't help but think the Master notices that, in the Seventh Doctor's incarnation, and that must delight him on some level.

Well, what's the protocol here? Should he send flowers first, or just ask?

Aw, well just for that, you get a *tackle!hug* and a plush wombat.
