“Audio diary, day one. Koschei left today. He’ll only be gone for a few days, but it’s really the first time we’ve been apart for any length of time since he and I found each other again. I miss him already, how silly is that? Zinny’s been an angel as always, but I don’t think she understands yet. I felt her reaching for him earlier. That said, I have a wonderful surprise for him when he gets back. He’s been working so hard and learning to be better for me, it’s high time he’s rewarded for it.”

“Audio diary day one.  Please attend carefully. I really didn’t expect it to be so hard to leave them for the  span of seven days, but when I picked up my TARDIS and dematerialized, I  … . well, I couldn’t help but stare at them both until I absolutely had to shut the door.  I feel as though there are hooks embedded in both my hearts, tugging with the sharpest of agonies to pull me back home.   … .Ah, anyway.  Crikey, listen how sentimental she’s made me. So!  This tech convention on Exxilon is of paramount import.  It’s time we merged our TARDISes, really it’s time, although we’ve discussed the ability to reverse the process should we ever need to separate for an escape plan, or if one of our vessels suffers a fatal engine error.  It’s … it’s important to me … that the Doctor’s TARDIS forgives me for the whole incident of the Paradox Machine.  I believe the merging of the TARDISes will go smoothly only if the Doctor’s TARDIS trusts both Her pilots.  And doing some maintenance on Her core components will go a long way toward earning Her trust.  That’s where the con comes in.  The most cutting edge technologies in the universe. I can find parts for a kind of … spa day, a bit of TLC, for the Doctor’s TARDIS. Wish me luck, unspecified listener! Master OUT.”
