idris, the master

Not being able to see people was boring. There really wasn't any other way to put it. Sure, he could have talked to the other people about that he didn't normally speak to, but the way he saw it, he didn't normally speak to those people for a reason, and there was no sense in trying to start now. So, instead, the Master had taken to wandering the streets. It wasn't for any rhyme or reason. He wasn't looking to start trouble (even though he had, on occasion, just a tiny bit), or find someone to talk with. Why would he seek something out from a local that he didn't even particularly care for from a non? But he'd just walked, letting his gaze sweep over each of the people that he passed, taking them in and allowing his mind to run over the different potential scenarios that it could think up for just how he could have made that individual useful to himself.

Of course, there were people you passed on the street that didn't catch your attention at all, and there were others that made you stop in your tracks, stop in your tracks and stare. And the Master had just passed one of those individuals. The dress, in and of itself, would have been enough to attract his attention, but there was something else, something that he couldn't quite put his finger on that drew his eye. A certain familiarity that his mind couldn't entirely place whether it was someone that he had met here and couldn't quite recall or just someone he'd dreamed about once upon a time. Either way, that was enough to motivate him from just watching to raising a hand to attract her attention.

"Do I know you?"

Oh. Well, he'd been worrying for nothing, then. Odd because that was usually the Doctor's job. He didn't worry about much of anything if he could help it. Not really anything beyond himself and his own interests most of the time. His expression tightened as she laughed at him, annoyance feeding into his system since it wasn't his fault that he'd made the very logical assumption that she would do what she could to try and keep her sister safe from the crazy, crazy Time Lord.

"We do know so much! We know plenty!" The Master objected with a rather intense irritation. "Just because we don't always know how some things work or assume stuff based on, well, logic doesn't mean we don't know plenty."

He might as well have stuck out his bottom lip and said, 'I am too smart,' but the effect was pretty much the same either way.

"She's back at my flat," The Master said with a resigned sigh, figuring that there really wasn't any way to get out of this now. And he'd much rather just walk himself than end up being dragged several blocks by his ear.
