the way the doctor has never heard of the cyberium before and the master is like “oh yeah ive heard a lot about that over the years” is there any more concise illustration of their different ways of engaging with the universe. oh a thing for strategy? long term planning? the doctor has never heard of it. the doctor is walking through the woods looking at each tree they pass individually, putting out small fires, petting squirrels, they run into the master and are like what a surprise to find you here and the master is like well. it’s a forest. you like those. im following the path. found you sort of where expected really. and the doctor is like the what sorry? and the master is like .....the path? and the doctor is like no the other thing what did you say? and the master is like ..............................the forest?? and the doctor is like you mean these trees???? and the master is like ..............no my darling detested i do not. mean the trees.

#sdfhjkhgjfgh #like the master is just like. oh yeah cyberium sure #like yeah this is just a thing you hear about #in his circles #i guess #meanwhile the doctor is like #is it alive is it a weapon #which you know #frankenstein #but #like honestly maybe the only time the doctor has seen a bigger picture was during the time war and even then im not sure #they live in such vastly different worlds #like even just thinking about how most of the masters life is spent in preparation for a short confrontation with the doctor #like. they live their life. to orchestrate a situation in which the doctor can like. See Them #bc small fire #they set a fire #they use their incredible patience for long term strategy to just set a bunch of fires sometimes so the doctor willcome put them out #and like im not even sure the doctor realises the extent of like the behind the scenes of the masters small fires #whereas the master is obviously Very aware of the doctors ways of thinking and doing
