Title:<\/strong> Contingencies<\/p>\n

Rating:<\/strong> Strong PG-13 for blood, gore, and character death.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Summary:<\/strong> If you\u2019ve tangled with enough supervillains, after a while you just stop being a hero about it. The Master tortured Jack. Castiel isn\u2019t exacting justice. He\u2019s after vengeance, he\u2019s cold, and he knows his quarry.<\/p>\n

I only sorta blame merindab<\/a> for this. She sent the headcanon ask, but it\u2019s not like I haven\u2019t been considering this moment for a long, long time.<\/p>\n

The Master had a (heh) master plan, of course. Not that he anticipated coming back, given the sweetness of his last triumph. But a man had to have contingencies, and counter contingencies, and contingencies for the contingencies, and\u2026 all right, yes, maybe he just rather liked saying the word \u2018contingency.\u2019 It made one feel professional.<\/p>\n

He\u2019d been watching the Doctor. Waiting. Setting the first wavelets of a plan in motion with his usual ruthless patience. It would be amazing. He\u2019d collect an utter chorale of humans killed in the Doctor\u2019s wake, let him witness their death rattles all over again and at the height of the suffering, he\u2019d be there. The crowning glory. The only Time Lord left.<\/p>\n

Maybe he\u2019d get himself killed all over again.<\/p>\n

After all, there were contingencies.<\/p>\n

And watching the Doctor grieve (lose) was such fun<\/em>.<\/p>\n
