They’re back, all safe and sound. The fam are tucked up in their beds after another exhausting adventure and the Doctor is burning through the adrenaline that had carried her through the last trip.
Which is a very bad thing.
She makes it to their bedroom, each step getting more and more difficult, until she stops in the doorway, leaning against the frame to keep herself up.
“Koschei…” is all she gets out before she collapses on the ground.
The Master turns at the sound of his bondmate’s feeble cry. Already his features are feral with protective resolve. He rushes to her side, and scoops her into his arms without contemplation.
“Right, Zero Room.”
He carries her there. The sterilized blankness, the absolute zero of silence, like a bloodless womb, engulfs them both at once, and he must struggle with the cottony sensation inside his mind, the nigh irresistible lull of R E S T, to place her on the table and run the diagnostic equipment.
“Tell me what happened or the first person I see gets the brunt of my wrath.”
//Graham watches Call the Midwife I cannot believe how much I love him wow.
//Lol Yaz kicking the thing away ❤
//You know….I know everyone’s cracking wise about the “mpreg” in this but III..actually think it’s kind of interesting that there’s an alien culture in which gender norms that we’re used to are completely ignored, and a man can be maternal and gentle and not hyper-macho and terrifying??? Tbh?????
Just sayin. You don’t have to agree with me. But as weird as may feel to look at a pregnant guy I think the bigger lesson is valuable.
Also I mean there are men with vaginas in the real world who want to have kids so… yeah. I’m cis and I guess uninformed but this occurs to me so I figured I should mention it.
//That general gives me chills she’s so powerful and capable damn ❤ there’s nothing like a woman of a certain age in power.
