Ok, so it's a double-drabble. Only way I could make it work ;) [TTR] A Master For All Seasons Response to the Drabble Challenge "The Master" Peering out the door of his TARDIS, the Master made sure the coast was clear before walking quickly toward the Pub Outside Continuity. He would have preferred to stay at home that day and fix himself a drink, but the 'Round was the only place he knew in the Outside that fixed a decent Bloody Mary, better even than his own TEBM (Tongue-Exploding Bloody Mary). He quietly opened the pub door and tiptoed inside. Despite his efforts to remain unseen entering the 'Round, the Master was quickly spotted by Polly, who immediately fell off her stool in a fit of laughter. He ignored the immediate urge to do something Master-like to her, as it would draw attention, instead stepping over Polly's quivering form and sliding into a booth with his former selves. He couldn't even trust himselves to leave him alone, as they too broke into guffaws and cackles of glee. He sank down in his seat, but it was too late. Soon everyone in the pub was laughing, clutching their aching sides and wiping tears from their eyes, and at his expense too. The Master, in all his Hawaiian-shirt-and-Bermuda-short-ed glory, left in a huff to go finish his laundry. Synopsis: The Master has some dirty laundry.
