Doctor Who, Doctor, someone realizes how stupid the "Tinkerbell Effect" at the end of Last of the Time Lords is

"No, no, no, now wait," the Master said, narrowing his eyes, "I must be misunderstanding - you can't possibly mean to tell me that you intend to overthrow me and foil my brilliant plans through... through what, the power of positive thinking?!"

"Er... yeah, something like that, yes," replied the Doctor brightly, smiling his idiotic smile, "thanks mostly to Martha's field work - well done, you, by the way, spreading the gospel of me!"

Martha blinked dreamily at the Doctor, and sighed as he lifted into the air and began to glow messianically; the Master buried his face in his hands and wished, not for the first time, that he could have put aside his ego and just killed the bastard while he had the chance.

OH YES! This is exactly what I wanted when I posted this prompt. You got the Master's ridiculous posturing perfect, and the way Martha is star-struck by his dazzling beauty. Thank you!

My roommate and I watched this episode together, and were all excited for superBAMF!Martha and the climactic conclusion, and when we saw the ending was all "YOU GOTTA ~*~BELIEVE~*~!" with Jesus!Ten, there was a flurry of facepalming and eyerolling and groaning. I mean... "His name is the Doctor... AND I LOVE HIM!!!"? Come on. So I really wanted to fill this prompt, it just took me a while to figure out how. I'm glad it works for you. :D

Yeah, I think that whole deus ex machina was worse than any of the others there have been. Because when Rose looked into the TARDIS, at least there were repercussions from that, but in this one, it was just *~magic~* and ended happily ever after. It's too bad, because up until that point, the episode was going really well. I even cried a little when I found out who the Toclofane were.

(Captcha: conviction sanctum. Because you gotta ~*~BELIEVE~*~)
