Creator's Summary: The offer was accepted and the arrangement was made: to save her friends from the Cybermen, the Thirteenth Doctor agreed to ten trips with the Master in his TARDIS—but before they could depart, the Doctor threw in an additional complication:
“If you’re hearing this, it means that you just realised you couldn’t open the locket. You shouldn’t leave things like Chameleon Arches lying about like that, you know. People can get up to all sorts of mischief if left alone with one. So here’s my end of the deal: the locket will open after ten trips in the TARDIS. Until then, you’re stuck with your new human companion, Jenny Smith. I’ll still be travelling with you… I just won’t have to be there for it.”
—which is when the Master added in a complication of his own:
“If you want to run from your problems and hide inside a little human costume… fine. Two can play at that game.”
Meanwhile in Bristol, the Twelfth Doctor’s decades-long routine of eccentric lecturing and vault guarding is about to be upended by the two most disruptive students St. Luke’s University has ever had: the perpetually bickering Jenny Smith and Harry Jones.
Characters: Fobwatched Thirteenth Doctor, Twelfth Doctor, Fobwatched The Master (Dhawan), Missy (Doctor Who)
Pairings: Thirteenth Doctor/The Master (Dhawan)m Twelfth Doctor/Missy, Thirteenth Doctor & Twelfth Doctor, Twelfth Doctor & The Master (Dhawan), The Master (Dhawan) & Missy, Thirteenth Doctor & Missy
Warnings/Notes: None
Reasons for reccing: In addition to being my second entry for the seasonal challenge, I’m also counting it towards both parts of the monthly theme - in addition to have big not one but two Masters, there’s a ton of humor in this one! Jenny and Harry’s antics are extremely funny, and the author does an excellent job at rewriting series 10 episodes - unlike many authors who try and rewrite the whole story, Cat only writes the parts that have major changes in them due to Twelve’s companions being Jenny and Harry instead of Bill. The result is that the episode rewrites fell fresh and interesting. It’s not all fluff and roses though - there’s a decent amount and angst, especially at the end. Cat’s also writing a series of sequels and side-stories to this one, so if you finish this one and fins yourself wanting more, you can also read those.
