The Master (Tony Head!Master) - at a little outdoors cafe in Italy, with cappaccinos and croissants. The Master is in slacks and a button-down shirt, and expensive leather shoes, with a ring on one hand, and a silver watch.
37. If you could change one thing from your past, what would it be, and why?
[leans back, thinking a moment] I think I'd not set up the paradox machine, and just take over the Earth the old fashioned way. Even if the Doctor defeated me then, he wouldn't be able to erase the suffering from the minds of humanity. Or any of his failures of that year.
46. In your opinion, what is the most evil thing a human being could do?
[laughs lightly, and smirks] Oh, my dear, dear child. That depends entirely on your definitions of evil and human. Though I would imagine that betraying their friends and family simply for their own personal gain would do the trick. It's quite amusing to watch them twist on their strings when they have to choose between loyalty to their family and loyalty to me.
22. As a child, what did you want to be when you grew up?
A teacher. A professor at the Acadamy. Respected on Gallifrey.
[waves a dismissive hand] None of that matters now. Next question. [takes a sip of his capaccino]
76. Do you smoke, drink, or use drugs? If so, why? Do you want to quit?
Rassilon, no! [looks faintly disgusted] Why ever would I do something so vulgar and self-defeating?
On the other hand, I do enjoy the occassional good porto, and sometimes a fine Scotch. But never to excess, merely a glass with dinner, or a toast to my success.
89. Are you generally organized or messy?
[takes a neat bite of his croissant, chewing thoughtfully] Organized, this time. A bit messy in the previous regeneration. Sometimes a bit of both.
83. What are your pet peeves?
The Doctor interfering constantly, in everything. Really, he meddles too much, and never with any purpose besides meddling.
64. If you died or went missing, who would miss you?
I should think that wouldn't happen, but there's a whole planet full of people who'd mourn the loss of their beloved leader.
98. What three words best describe your personality?
This time? [sips cappaccino again] Patient, calculating, ruthless.
5. Where do you live now, and with whom? Describe the place and the person/people.
I live in a palatial home on Bavaria - the planet, not the region on Earth - surrounded by servants and loyal retainers. It's rather a lovely little planet, and absolutely perfect for a springboard to the rest of the galaxy. A handful of neighboring planets that can be induced to war, and will welcome someone to impose peace when we have the warships ready. Solid grasp of defensive technology, a need for conflict that's inherent to humanity. Absolutely lovely.
[pauses, drumming fingers a moment before he grimaces] Of course, I'm sure the Doctor would disagree with me, and I see you're a little perturbed. Really, what did you expect from me? Some praise of the beauty of the place?
56. Who are your friends? Do you have a best friend? Describe these people.
I have subjects, I have servants, I have advisors, I do not have friends. I once had a best friend, but... well, you can see how well that turned out. Really, I don't think I care to answer any more questions, so if we're quite done here?
