056 - Hospital Action

[soundof_drums]

[When he wakes up, the Master notices a few things have changed. 1) his scenery is no longer Level 0-- Ha! Early release! Of course, this early release has to do with 2) the fact that he feels light-headed and generally weak. Thanks to a certain incident with a certain dhampir (in which the former Time Lord had found himself rather unpleasantly

I like to think of it as observing. You're really not doing too well without the benefits our species usually enjoys.

[Okay, so maybe he fretted a little, he's a little irritated with himself for being even remotely concerned about the Master at this point, but he is, none the less. He gives the former Time lord an unimpressed look.]

You do know you have to eat three times a day now?

[Covering up concern by questioning the Masters intelligence! It never fails!]

[soundof_drums]

[The Master scoffs at the insult to his intelligence. Even if he hadn't known for whatever reason, his time as Professor Yana had taught him everything he needed to know about being human]

Of course I do. [He rolls his eyes then-- very mature!]

Humans seem to spend most of their time sleeping and eating. It's no wonder they're so stunted.

[celerystyle]

Sleeping and eating. You know, some people would like a good reason to be able to eat more...

[The Doctor sits down beside the Masters bed, leaning back in the chair a little. He has actually been slightly concerned about that, The Master tended to see the big picture and miss the little details at times, or vice versa depending on his regeneration, so forgetting to eat? Didn't seem entirely unlikely for him.]

How are you finding it? The abrupt change in bodily functions must have been quite a shock for you.

[When he answers, his voice is terribly flat]

My only connection to time is linear. I'm disconnected from the universe. [Disconnected from you, he would add, but it would be too sentimental. It isn't that he even wants to be connected to the Doctor in any capacity, but it is frustrating to lose that Time Lord connection and find his mind terribly... silenced, except for the drums.]

[After a pause] Is that what you wanted to hear, Doctor?

[Daniel had been walking back to the library, when he saw the Master lying in a bed. He had ran back to his room, made a half-assed get well card with a sharpie and a piece of paper, then ran back to the infirmary. He didn't care if the Master still thought that he was like the Doctor. They were friends once...maybe. They can be friends again.]

Hey there! [He said, a slight smile on his face. He placed the get well card on the table by the Master's bed and-oh. He was restrained.]

How are you feeling?

[soundof_drums]

[He looks up, glaring initially, then allowing his expression to soften to a pleasant smile. While he had been a bit spastic and vicious to Daniel before, that was still when the shock of his newfound humanity (not to mention the Dalek incident) was still fresh. Now that he'd had some time to adjust... it was back to attempting charm (although, to be honest, he was still shaken and not as smooth as he normally aimed to be)]

Miserable, actually! I nearly died, after all. How are you?

[exploringdaniel]

[Daniel bit his lip, looking at the Master. How was he feeling? What a great question. There was the Dalek attack, something happened with the Master, he got hurt and now Daniel was asking how he felt. What a great friend he was. At the Master's question, Daniel shrugged.]

I'm fine.

I made you a get well card. [He said, looking at the card.] On Earth, you're supposed to bring people flowers when they're sick. I couldn't find any though... [He smiled, a bit sheepishly.] I couldn't find a teddy bear either.

[soundof_drums]

[He glances over at the card. It's not that impressive-- in fact, home made crafts and similar things tended to annoy him, typically.]

I see. [Still forcing a smile] Thank you. I'm sure I'll survive quite happily without flowers or a... bear.
