This post is where everything happens. All stories/ficlets/drabbles go in the comments here. If your story's too long to fit in a single comment, please post it in your own journal and leave the link in a comment here along with your next pairing request(s). Make certain that you include the pairing you've written as the title of the comment, so that specific pairings can be found easily.
Please don't post any comments that aren't stories. That way, this post will show an accurate count of all the written stories. If you make a mistake or forget something, just edit your comment. If you write a story featuring a specific pairing but somebody posts their story before you post yours, please post it in the overflow post instead of the main one.
If you need help thinking of a pairing to request next or getting inspiration, don't forget The Doctor Who Random Pairing Generator. It includes all of the "main" characters from the various shows, audios, books, and spin-offs. People who aren't participating in the writing can list pairings here that authors can write and/or use as requests in this post.
The rules can be found on the community profile. The masterlist of all written pairings can be found here, while all requested pairings that are still open can be found here. If you want to leave feedback for one of the authors, please go to this post. Any other questions can be asked here.
Note: If you're writing a story for someone's request, please post it as a reply to their comment. Only create a new thread if you've written a pairing that nobody has requested yet.
Jenny/The Master (Simm)
Date: 2009-03-05 05:58 pm (UTC)She did not understand. She was not a prisoner of war, the Master said as much. He didn't want to torture her for information, because what information could she possibly have? He said she was his hostage. She was a weapon of a game - a war game, that's how she saw it, and when she suggested that there was something in his eyes - and that game put her father as the Master's opposition.
If this man was her father's enemy, she had warned him, but he laughed and told her that the Doctor was his best enemy, as well as his oldest friend. Still, she did not understand.
So he told her stories of the Master and the Doctor. He told her the story backwards, from paradox machines and the Eye of Harmony to planets of fire and the Rod and Sash and Key of Rassilon to war games played on planet Earth. Eventually, he told her of Gallifrey and a broken friendship.
It's funny, but when time is reversed, things seem turned all around.
Stockholm Syndrome was a human psychological response which was discarded as pop psychology centuries before she was born, so Jenny had never heard of it. All she knew is that she wanted to help the Master, and she'd do anything he asked of her for that.
Why, she'd do anything at all.
