“I will never forgive you for this,” she spits, her voice nothing but splinters.
A shuddery breath escapes the Master’s lips, almost reverent. He shifts himself closer, invading her space, stealing her breaths along with everything else he’s taken from her.
“I’m sorry, Doctor,” he murmurs, almost tender, almost like he means it. “But you never forgiving me was precisely the point.”
Covers for my new multi-chapter Doctor Who fic, Disarmed, which is probably the most rancid concept I've ever come up with. The vibes are awful, guys. In the best kind of way - at least, if that's you're kind of thing. If you wanna read almost 40k of the Doctor and the Master being forced to work together whilst the Doctor barely manages not to tear the Master's throat out on multiple occasions, then this is the fic for you! Be warned though - it's heavy, both emotionally and in terms of gore content. But regardless - I'm super proud of these covers!! Whoop whoop!
Also - if you don't know about it, check out the multi-era Doctor Who charity fanzine that I've written a fic for that just released today, ALL money going to the Palestine Children's Relief Fund!

You know something I am really sad about is how the TARDIS interior changed for tenteen. It would have been a whole different story if the clothes had been normal but like this? Everthing the Doctor was just vanished and got replaced. The screwdriver coming out of nothing? The outfit? A new fancy TARDIS?
10 kept the TARDIS from 9 and 12 from 11. 13 had to fight to get her TARDIS back and built herself a new screwdriver in the meantime. 11 had to let her recalibrate until she was usable again and gave him a new screwdriver (? I think ? Don't quite remember where he got the sonic) All of them CHOSE their new outfit and had a whole thing where they searched for it.
And tenteen just gets all those things like this, appearing in his lap. Which is convenient, sure, but I feel like he really lost the identification process on the way. Maybe not as important for him as he knows the body and mind and companion already (in theory) but like, I am not surprised he is going through it like this. He just wanted to hang on to Yaz, wasn't allowed that, lost her, decided she was gonna be excited for change, didn't really get change either and then everything they could hold onto as part of their last identity, everything that was theirs to let go off, just got ripped out of his hands replaced with a weird mixture of 'look how new and nice and shiny' and 'isn't that lovely reminiscent of 4 bodies ago'. No wonder they are running on their gingiva*, I would be so lost and disoriented in his place.
And then obviously from a meta pov I dislike that 15 is apparently copying tenteen's TARDIS now. We got a scene of tenteen exploring the new TARDIS and being excited but for 15 he has already had 1.5 adventures with her. And while we couldn't put tenteen into the old clothes it was okay to put 15 in underwear? Wouldn't it have made much more sense to have the weird clothes' thing happen with the mitosis regeneration? (like, I wouldn't have liked that either but it is a little weird how tenteen got a full suit and 15 got the bare minimum)
And I hate how it feels like every part that made the Doctor 13 got erased as quickly as possible. Luckily, there were a few references at least - if no one got me I know the psychic paper got me <3 - and I GET why the fam didn't show up in the puppet show but like, couldn't you have left tenteen the TARDIS interior at least? I am sure Donna would have liked the crystal columns <3
It feels very rtd to have tenteen showered with gifts he can't even want and that are way too much while others are erased or overshadowed by him and get the leftovers.
On a similar note, I was also direly missing post-regeneration haze for both of them. Who knows (well people who have watched the Christmas special, I guess), maybe that's yet to come for 15? But like how are they supposed to function without running about without a clue and passing out every 5s for a day or two?

ShiSaku Week: Day 3
Sakura could only sigh as her training with Annabeth was interrupted by one of her siblings. Especially after they told her "favorite patient" was waiting for treatment.
"You'd think being one of the fastest sons of Hermès, he'd be less injured," Annabeth said.
Rubbing her temples, the pink haired girl apologized the daughter of Athena. Of course her sparing partner understood, as this kind of interruption was not uncommon between the two. It's just on of the many flaws of being head if their cabins.
It also doesn't help that Sakura here, has medical abilities that could rival her father's, Asclepius. It made her a very popular request in the infirmary. It was got the point, that she put a ban on her patient load unless it was really serious (i.e. an arrow to the eye).
However, there was only one person who somehow alway managed to get her to heal him. That man, Shisui Uchiha, son of Hermès.
He was one who didn't let any of her cabin members come near him. Especially when it came time for his vaccinations.
At first she thought it was because he had already known her, being that dhe was childhood friends with his cousin, Sasuke. Then he just became problematic for her siblings. All the way from using his winged shoes to pinn himself to roof, or using his enhanced speed to evade them. In other word he was her siblings worse nightmare of a patient, and the newcomers to her cabin were quick to presudade to dump him on her.
Thus there was a rule in in her cabin; no matter what, whenever Shisui Uchiha showed up at the infirmary the youngest would be sent out to get her to rein him in.
"You know Sakura ," her sibling began, as they walked to the infirmary, "if I didn't know any better I'd say he has a thing for you."
She could see the concern on her siblings face at how fast she turned her head to look at them.
Of course Sakura was shocked at her sibling's hypothesis. In her mind, it seemed preposterous that Shisui would have taken a liking to her. In fact, thing far back as to when she'd be over at Sasuke's home to play, he'd alway pull at her pink locks, and say the most observed things to get a reaction out of her. He'd also poke her forehead a lot which he knew she was self conscious about.
" Trust me when I say this, Shisui does not like me. I am just a familiar to him. The reason being that we knew eachother when we younger, and that's it. Nothing more. Nothing less," she made clear.
Her sibling only shrugged and just came to the silent conclusion that Sakura was oblivious.
By now, every camper knew of Shisui's infatuation with Sakura. That is, every camper besides the woman of his affections.
They'd all seen the way he watches her at she trains with the daughters of Athena. They way he always made room next to him during celebrations.
Even during their interaction with each term, he'd be dropping hint, obvious ones and they'd just go over her head. It was painful to watch for all campers.
Percy remembers when Shisui used a funny pickup line on Sakura, and well, it got her to laugh. That was about it.
Later on he'd find out from Annabeth, that her half sister, Ino, repeated said pickup line that Sakura told her. Though, Ino made it clear that Sakura one hundred percent thought it was a joke.
After telling Annabeth who Sakura heard the pickup like from, let's just say she was pretty annoyed.
Pretty much every camper wants them to just kiss and end their missery...
Walking into the infirmary room that contained the Uchiha, Sakura crossed her arms. There he was, laying down all comfortable in the bed, with messy bandages wrapped around his head.
" So Shisui, what bring you intoday," she asked, as Shisui sat up from the bed.
Now despite, everything Sakura is very fond of the Uchiha. Don't get her wrong, he can be annoying, but he always made her smile in the end.
"Well Doc, you see I was helping the children of Demeter harvest their apples."
Oh no. This us going exactly where she thinks this is going.
Sakura could not help the smile that grace her lips.
"Well, one of them dropped their basket full of apples. The apples where going to hit their sibling holding the ladder steady, and I just couldn't let them. "
"So your in here cause you got clobbered by apples," she said, with amusement.
"What can I say, Doc? I'm proof that an apple doesn't slways keep the doctor away,' isn't true."
With a chuckle, she walked over to his bed. Allowing her plans to glow green, she placed them on the side of his head. Her eyes closed, as she concentrated; scanning for any for and signs of head injury.
Shisui couldn't help but to relax in her touch. He even brought a hand up to clasp one her own.
It startled her to open her eyes, and for once it felt like they where really seeing eachother.
Time stopped.
Emerald eyes locking with onyx. Their heart beats somehow becoming in sync. Then suddenly they where leaning in, lip centimeters apart when-
"Sakura! We got a code 33," one of her siblings informed her, bargaining into the room.
Sakura had quickly pulled away from from Shisui, and a silence had settled into the room.
"A-am I interrupting something," they asked, looking between the blushing duo.
"No. Anyways, lead the way, and Shisui, you're good to go. I'll see you later at dinner," she said, rushing away to her next patient.
Meanwhile, Shisui was grinning like a fool.
By the end of the day, everyone knew what transpired between the two. So when dinner finally rolled around, and the two were holding hands; the whole camp lost it. Ino even fell to her knees as the rest of the camp cheered.
It was about damn time in everyones opinion.
I want to thank @athelise for their imput on who Shisui's godly parent should be. It really helped a lot.
@shisakuweek
