D/M Slash - The Greatest Hits
Some days ago Snobbi and I had an err... interesting conversation over ICQ (I guess I don't have permission to post it, Snobbi? XD) that gave birth to the idea of a picspam (cause I hadn't done one in a while, apparently ;) ) about all the slashy Doctor/Master bits in Doctor Who.
Now that I've realised that I already watched every single episode with the Master in (how sad! Snobbi, you need come over to comfort me!), this seemed like a good time for that. (and really, some bits in that show are so blatantly slashy, that you really start to wonder about the author's/director's actual intentions... ;) )

Telephones, Bondage and Beastiality - A Classic (and not entirely serious) History of Slash
We start with the Master as elegantly portrayed by Roger Delgado, the man himself (no, not even John Simm compares to his awesomeness. I really only got into Old Who because I loved John Simm's Master so much (he got me back into hero/villain shipping. I'd thought I'd finally got rid of that kink :-p *grrr*) and wanted more of the character, started with 'Five Doctors' and some more Ainley, and then suddenly I'm watching some Pertwee episodes, and along comes Delgado and WHAM! Character-Love on first sight. He just is the Master. Super! ♥ Bye, bye John Simm! XD)
Now, the first time we meet the Master, the Doctor is exiled to Earth, trapped, because as part of their punishment, the Time Lords disembowled the TARDIS. Luckily, during this time there’s a new alien species trying to invade our earth, keeping the doc from getting bored. But because you can only have so many alien invasions until it gets dull, some genius thought up the Master to drop in on the Doctor occasionally. For his great introduction the Doctor even has a Time Lord popping up, randomly informing him that his ex-bf is back in town. The Time Lords must really find their relationship the most interesting reality soap of the century.
And true to that - although preparing to take over the world with the help of man-eating-plastic-chairs - the Master wastes no time but sends the Doctor flowers as soon as he’s in range.
True, they’re yellow, and plastic, and deadly - but that’s part of the ritual. Vanilla sex tends to get a bit dull after 5 centuries or so.
The first serial isn’t over yet and yet the Master is taking their reunion to the next step: over the telephone!
With surprise bondage!
please excuse the quality of the caps. I wish this one were out on DVD already, but, alas, it isn't.
with more of the same one serial later. (we love handcuffs! Mind of Evil is just full of good bits XD)
Oh the disappointment and worry when he fears he might have actually killed the Doctor is quite lovely.
the episode was so stylish that all colour had to be sucked from it, to avoid exploding over-excited fangirls. (at least that's what I keep telling myself *sighs*
That complete 8th series is basically one long series of attempts of the Master to try and get the Doctor's attention, when finally the Doctor gives in -
right after the desperate Master allied himself with the Axons for some tentacle-action
- and offers to run away with him. (The Claws of Axos)
(Though mean people say this might have something to do with the Master nearly succeeding in destroying the Earth. However, the Doctor’s back-peddling on that at first surely heart-felt offer, as soon as the planet is safe, causes the Master a deep crisis plunging him into a swamp of misery, heavy-metal and demonic cultism, black mass complete with black chickens...
which immediately gets him arrested. (The Daemons)
Well, at last the Doctor reveals that he has a soft heart after all (pardon me, two soft hearts of course!), and comes to visit his friend in prison after that desperate break-down (no doubt for some sexy-prison-fun-time).
Even Jo comments on how sweet that is!
(The Sea Devils)
The Master promptly repays him by donning a sexy navy uniform
(“in the navy” *lalalala*) and showing just how much the Doctor means to him, by motivating the Sea Devils into threatening humankind, just because humans are the Doctor’s favourite species. Awww, isn’t it cute how much attention he pays to the Doctors likes and dislikes?
The Doctor is so impressed by that, that he joins the Master in cute and childish romantically youthful activities like disrupting each others time experiments and even saves him from the Great Big Guy-in-a-Chicken-Suit (AKA El Pollo Diablo) of Time.
it's almost a proposal ...
And then the Doctor had those dreams about the Master, that involved lounging about on chaises-longs and featuring an erupting volcano (what would Freud say?),
that, upon awaking, the Doctor immediately had to phone the Brig to talk about… let’s just say the Brig was not overly amused to be the Doctor’s favourite girly best friend to discuss boyfriends with:
“I saw the Master again!”
“What? Where? I’ll alarm HQ!”
“No, no, not like that... In a dream!”
*sighs* - "FFS, just get yourselves a room, you two!"
(The Time Monster)
The biggest moment of "I'd rather do other things with you than fight you" has to go to the otherwise a bit stale serial 'Colony in Space':
*screencap include just for its prettiness*
Master acquires Doomsday Weapon of unspeakable powers and what's the first thing he dos? Asking the Doctor nicely to please rule the universe with him. aaaaaawww. XD
oh you're totally thinking about it, Doctor!
Sadly the next time those too meet, the Doctor (IV) doesn’t seem too interested in fun times. Can’t have anything to do with the Master seducing members of the High Council into sado-masochistic relation ships in a virtual reality, or the fact, that the Master now is barely more than a walking corpse, can it? The Master in return, is, after all, willing to overlook the Doctors frequently deteriorating dress sense (now who’s in a midlife crisis here, ha?) (The Deadly Assassin)
Well, the Master might be crispy, but is eager to get his hands on the Doctor.
Fearing it might be his appearance that put the Doctor off, the Master, having used up all his regenerations, just steals the next best body, finally becoming young and sexy again.
Nah, there’s nothing strange with that transformation. Cause obviously
+
=
See? It totally makes sense.
(The Keeper Of Traken)
Now in Logopolis the Master is clearly happy to have a functioning body again, being able to touch. He's hanging all over Tom in this one XD
Sadly, the Doctor just isn’t up for naughty games in this incarnation, tall dark stranger or not. Even though they do get physical …
Very much so …
XD
No wonder the Master chucks this one off a radio tower at the first chance.
And because the new Doctor is so confussled after regenerating, the Master decides the best plan is to build him a castle, spike his drink and keep the drugged Doctor all safe during the night before playing with him some more (Castrovalva) ... err, ... Master I think you need to have a talk with someone about your super-villain skills before you try that again, okay?
Now the new Doctor is clearly up for fun and games, yet midly disturbed that the new plan involves spiked drings, getting drugged and being locked up in a castle tower bed chamber. Playing the golden haired princess in distress and date rape drugs are apparently not part of the kind of roleplay the Doctor enjoys.
But the next one is even better! Maybe try the clichéd magical asian fat-suit next?
Hmm… apparently not.
The Doctor is too busy trying to figure out what the hell happened in this serial to react to the Master’s admittedly quite tasteless advances.
“Now, my dear Doctor, you might wonder, why I chose this particular disguise? It is easy, I only wanted to see the face you'd make when you realised it was me all along.”
“Aaah you should have seen the expression on your face”
“Yeah you looked just like that.”
"you can stop doing that now ..."
(let's face it, boys and girls 'Time-Flight' is crap! :D)
Okay. So now that two plans failed to put the Doctor into a mood for ravishment, how about medieval England, tourneys and sword fights,
and more phallic weapons than you can shake a stick at, chains and torture, French accents, bear rugs, talking about how great a stimulation the Doctor is, and huge four poster beds? Oh and that sex-bot android* that can turn into the object of your lust love will?
*I swear: the only time fanfic writers ever seem to remember Kamelion travelled with the Doctor, is for pRon purposes. Not that I feel the need to see him in anything else …
And remember that thing about threesomes?
Eh, eh?
The end of the story: After some distracting mind-sexing the Doctor runs of with the shape-changing sex-bot. Alas, poor Master! ('The King's Demons' = cracky love ♥)
And then there was that one time, that somehow the Time Lords ended up deciding the Master were the best person to rescue the Doctor from Unknown Dangers (who put these guys in charge again?). Well they do need to help things along from time to time to keep the greatest love-story in their history entertaining ... ;)
After declaring that “a cosmos without the Doctor scarcely bears thinking about” (original dialogue), the Master sets out to finally score as the Knight in, errr … blood caked cloaks with the ridiculously large collars.
Now if only that didn’t mean running into the earlier incarnations that you seemingly just broke up with…
“Fancy my Elf Cloak + 5, Doctor? It enhances my natural charms …” *wink, wink* *nudge, nudge*
- “Please, Master. Not in front of the companion …”
He wasn’t even offered a ride in the Doctor’s totally pimped out car. :-(
Well he nearly hit it off right with the next one.
(best caption for these two wins a prize ;) *g* )
(that is an extremely pretty scene. Somehow these two always end up in each others personal space, no matter how far apart they started out standing in the beginning of a sequence :-p)
If only those cybermen weren’t such exhibitionists and would content themselves with watching from afar. The Doctor just isn’t up to performing in front of large audience. :-p
But then we get the hilarious reunion with the first one: Oh he still remembers that disaster in the Academy lavatory vividly and henceforth rather pretends not to know you.
No wonder the Master gets a bit tetchy in the end of that episode. XD
And finally, when all your dreams about a multiple-doctor-harem - at last! - appear to come true, you get knocked out by the girly best friend - the Brigadier!
no more phone calls to UNIT HQ in the middle of the night from you, sir!
And the only ones up to play are the girlies. *sigh*
(The Five Doctors)
Finally, giving it all in a last attempt, the Master made a fine figure in a suit,
amidst the not-at-all suggestive scenery... :-p On a planet that has its every male inhabitant running around in the skimpiest shorts and wearing incredible amounts lots of eyeliner? Hey, they even brought back the sex-bot for that one.
I think the Master's only problem here was that he had actually shrunk himself to the size of a big spider and Peri kept coming after him with her shoe ... (hey, don't look at me like that, that's the actual plot!)
I think Fivey here had already planned building a hamster cage for him in the TARDIS, but Turlough and Peri wouldn't let him keep him... aawww.
“Why do all his fantasies lately involve locking me up?”.
(Planet Of Short Shorts Fire)
