//I regret to inform you all that Koschei has already decided to call Graham “Graham Cracker.”  I am so sorry for this nefarious dumbass.

Doctor Who || Jurassic World AU 

{Fallen Kingdom Inclusive} 

Dr. Koschei Oakdown is an InGen geneticist, hand-picked by Dr. Henry Wu, and has been since obtaining his PhD from the Department of Physiology, Anatomy, and Genetics at Oxford University at the unprecedented age of sixteen.  His London socialite parents have disowned him.  Since the boy’s employment at the original park, Wu has overlooked an extensive criminal record because only Koschei has ever been able to keep up with and replicate the work of Dr. Seraphina Pitchiner, the geneticist who, at the new park, Jurassic World, engineered the Indominus Rex.  

The catastrophe at Jurassic World in 2015 led Dr. Pitchiner to leave InGen’s staff.  But Dr. Oakdown, now in his early 30s, remained, and took her place.  Driven by a lust for notoriety and power, he accepted when approached by Wu and Mills to help engineer the perfect marketable biological weapon: the Indoraptor.  He took up residence at Benjamin Lockwood’s estate and created the egg that hatched the Indoraptor Prototype.  

But as the Indoraptor grew, and underwent behavioral conditioning, deprived of all stimuli but the laser and sound that drove it into a killing frenzy, Dr. Oakdown finally experienced moral qualms.  He found he could identify with the creature, its cruelly predetermined genetic code of intelligence, aggression, pain, and rage.  He conspired to bring his concerns to an unwitting Lockwood, but before he could, Lockwood was murdered, and Owen Grady and Claire Dearing foiled the entire Lockwood operation.  

Now, the Indoraptor is dead, but the genetic code for the prototype has gone mysteriously missing; meanwhile dinosaurs roam the North American continent, freed by Lockwood’s granddaughter.  What role will the jilted geneticist of a Frankenstein’s Monster have in this new world?

Simm!Master in The Doctor Falls.

Can we talk about how angry the master was in this episode. I mean he’s always had an angry streak to him but this one seemed like he had delt with something big (maybe even bigger then what when in with the time liars and the time war.) Anyone have any thoughts on this?

@masterwhy42  You should take a gander through my meta tag and also if you like I can give you some headcanon ideas I share with @doctamastacanon @audale and @alez-on-mars 

Like I agree with you 120%, the Master’s conduct and demeanor were a thousand shades bitterer and less enthusiastically delightedly wicked.  He was miserable and furious and embittered, and since that’s an incomprehensible leap from being on the precipice of teaming up with or traveling with the Doctor in End of Time, that leaves two possibilities:

1) the writing is, in parts, poor, and at the Master’s expense for the sake of other characters seeming sympathetic (I still contend this is partly the case, but we can’t do much with or about that aside write fix-it fics, which hey, I am all for)

and/or

2) something severely traumatic was done to the Master after he drove Rassilon and the Time Council back into the timelock.  Because let’s face it, Rassilon saw both the Doctor and the Master as aberrations to be used when it was convenient; tools (hell that’s the reason why the Master had what everyone always thought was an auditory hallucination all his life) which Rassilon referred to openly as “diseased.”  Rassilon wants revenge on both the Doctor and the Master; as we know, he gets revenge in the Confession Dial on the Doctor later, with Twelve, so why wouldn’t he get it on the Master, too?  Right when he was in his clutches? The Doctor assumes the Master was “fixed” by the Time Council, since his unstable resurrection energy has been calmed, but the Master refers to both that time and his time as a leader on Mondas as something the Doctor “wouldn’t understand,” with an unusual grimness and reserve.  To me this suggests the “fixing” on Gallifrey that he eventually escaped with a new TARDIS did not come without catches and conditions.  Perhaps he was used as a weapon once again, as they intended him to be during the earlier stages of the Time War.   My friends and I have hypothesized that he was even kept on Gallifrey for a time equivalent to the Doctor’s Confession Dial punishment, over four billion years, perhaps imprisoned, perhaps not, but fed incessant imagery of the Doctor failing to ever come to save him, and return the favor he paid him in End of Time.  

This combination of factors would explain his incomprehensible rage toward Twelve, when the last time he saw the Doctor, as Ten, they had come as close to a detente as they ever did in New Who, or arguably the entire series, before Missy’s arc.
