What about number 15. “I’m too sober for this.” “You don’t even drink.” “Maybe I should start.” sorry, keep you busy I know 😊.

Don’t ever apologize for sending me asks! I love it and I had so much fun writing this one. Let me know if you liked it x

Plot: Y/N needs to attend a family event and, surprise surprise, the Master is gonna have to pretend to be her boyfriend. 

Prompts: “I’m too sober for this” “You don’t even drink” “Maybe I should start”.

Warning: none, cuteness overload

You were totally, absolutely panicking. No, scratch that, you were going nuts.

Your steps echoed in the silence of the TARDIS as you paced the floor of the control room, picking at your lips anxiously.

-What the hell are you doing?! - 

The Master walked in with an exasperated look.

-I'm trying to work, you know? - 

He had been all around the TARDIS trying to fix a few leaks or something like that. You didn't even know a time-travelling space ship could have leaks but they sounded dangerous.

-I'm sorry, I'm sorry- you apologized without stopping your nervous walk.

The Master looked at you asking himself why the hell did he think bringing a human into his ship would be a good idea. He eventually gave in and asked you. -What's bothering you so much? -

You kept moving like a caged animal. 

-It's...you wouldn't understand- you stated waving him off.

-Y/N, I'm a thousand years old Time Lord, I think I can handle it- he said rolling his eyes impatiently.

You bit your lips. -It's my family- 

The Master signalled you to keep going.

-My parents called. They want me home for their anniversary-

-And? -

You sighed. -And I sort of...told them I was away...for a holiday...with my boyfriend-

The Master processed the information.

-...you're right there's nothing of this I understand-

You groaned in frustration. 

-They expect me to bring him with me tonight-

The Master blinked a few times, then he started laughing.

-Shut up!- you exclaimed covering your face with your hands. 

-No, I'm flattered, really-

To be fair, you and the Master were...partners. Kinda. You didn't exactly know how to define your relationship. You kissed sometimes, mainly when one of you was excited about something and you had sex rather often. The Master could be very sweet but you couldn't really picture him as anyone's boyfriend. Mainly because he would label it as something stupid and human, which usually were synonymous in his vocabulary. But you were fine with what you had, he was special to you and you knew you were special to him, even if he would never admit it.

-I'm screwed- you said collapsing on the counter.

-Just lie to them, say he was busy doing...human...stuff-

You raised your hands in the air. -I can't! They'll know it's not true, they already have their suspicions and they'll think I made the trip up just to stay away from them or maybe that I was abducted by aliens or something-

-To be fair, you kinda were-

You glanced at him with loath. -You're so useless-

-What else do you expect me to do? -

Suddenly, an idea made your eyes light up. You looked at the Master with a mischievous smile.

-What? -

You kept staring at him in silence.

-What?? Y/N what's...oh no-

Your eyes became pleading.

-No way, uh uh-

-Pleeeaase-

The Master turned around and started walking out of the room, still muttering how he would never agree to your crazy plan.

-I agree with your crazy plans all the time! -you bit back.

-This is different-

-No, it's not, it's just for one night- you managed to get in front of him and block his path.

-One night, nothing more-

-Y/N I'm no good with...- he gestured toward you. 

-Humans? Families? -

-Both-

You rolled your eyes. -You'll just have to make up a story about your fake job and your fake life, it's nothing you haven't done before-

His teeth started nibbling at his bottom lip. You could tell he was considering it.

-It might actually be fun- you tried.

-Do I get to kill any of your relatives? -

-No! -

-Then how much fun can it be! -

You took a deep breath.

-Okay, what about this. I promise I will make it up to you- 

The Master seemed interested.

-How? -

-However you want- you took a step closer, the implications clear in your voice.

The Master looked down at your lips, then he groaned.

-Fine! -

-Yes! - you exclaimed and kissed his cheek. -You are the best! - 

You hopped away, not hearing the Master whispering: -I'm gonna regret this-

Your parents' house had always been such a cosy place and you found it hadn't changed at all. You had missed it, in a sense. 

Your family was numerous so the small living room and the kitchen were already filled with people when you arrived.

The Master kept fixing his tie nervously while you rang the bell.

-Calm down-

-Don't tell me to calm down, I'm gonna be in a house full of humans and I won't even be able to compress a few of them into ants and stomp on...-

-Mum! -

Your mother squeezed you tightly, cooing about how much she had missed you.

-Oh, you must be Y/N's boyfriend...-

-Sacha, it's so nice to meet you-

You glanced at him as he pleasantly smiled and shook your mother's hand. You had seen him do this many times but you still couldn't figure out how a murderous aline could transform in such a lovely human being.

-The pleasure is all mine. Now, come in-

You were greeted by the whole family, hugging you and patting you on the shoulder as you introduced them to your boyfriend. The Master's facade never crumbled, not even for a second, no matter how intrusive your father's questions were.

-And where do you work? -

-I'm a risk analyst here in London- he said eating his food. You were sitting beside him, feeling a little tense. You trusted him, but you hoped your exuberant family wouldn't make him lose his cool.

-It's so nice to see our little Y/N finally finding someone! She's always been such a lonely kid-

-Mum...- you said through gritted teeth. The Master smiled at you with a soft look in his eyes. You knew once you were back in the TARDIS, you would never see the end of it.

-And now look at her! She's practically got heart eyes-

-Mum! -

The Master laughed. He was having way too much fun.

-So tell us, how did you meet? -

You looked at each other. You hoped he had a good story.

-We met during a workshop. A colleague introduced us and we hit it off pretty quickly. I knew she was special right away- he said.

You looked at him with a half-smile.

-So I asked her out for a coffee and then for dinner and then a movie and...here we are-

-Aw, how sweet- chipped one of your aunts. -We were starting to think little Y/N would remain all by herself forever, but luckily she found you-

-She'd be fine all by herself- he said in your defence. -She's a tough one- 

You were starting to like this.

After lunch, everybody moved either to the garden or to the living room. For a while, you lost the Master as you helped your mum with the dishes and talked about how happy you were with your boyfriend and how incredible your trip had been. Oh, if she only knew.

Once you moved to the living room, you were met by a scene you never thought could present to you.

The Master was being tackled by your little cousins who seemed to be having the time of their life climbing on his shoulders as he pretended to be some sort of monster. 

-Oh, no, I'm being defeated! - you heard him exclaim.

He was...surprisingly good with kids. You didn't expect that and you found yourself smiling at the sight, thinking that no one can pretend that well.

-Look at you, you're practically drooling- 

Your cousin Joyce was looking at you with a knowing smile on her lips. 

-No, I'm not-

-Oh, come on, he's your boyfriend, it's only normal- she said looking at him playing with the kids. -He's good uh? -

-Yeah- you said keeping that stupid smile on your face.

-Do you think you'll have kids of your own one day? I mean, you two seem pretty serious- 

You shook your head. -Nah, he's...not really the type-

-I wouldn't say so- she said glancing at them once again. 

Now the Master was finally up on his feet and the kids were running out to play. He looked tired but strangely happy. He saw you looking at him and smiled at you. You waved at him, but before he could walk toward you, your grandma stopped him and started talking. You tried not to laugh at the scene. A dangerous Time Lord was now having a conversation with an eighty-something-year-old woman. That was gonna be good.

Unfortunately, your cousin dragged you away, eager to know every "spicy detail" about your love life.

After about an hour, you and the Master were finally able to talk in peace. 

You were near the buffet when he leaned against the table with a dramatic sigh. Aand he was back.

-You're alive- you told him eating a chip.

-Surprisingly. How long have we been here? If we don't leave soon I'm gonna regenerate-

You smiled amusedly.

-You're doing great-

-Your grandmother is incredibly long-winded-

-She's 84-

-And I'm two thousand years old, so? She's practically a child to me-

-...weird- you said. -What did you even talk about? -

-She started rambling about how cute of a child you were and suddenly we were talking about her prosthetic hip-

You laughed soundly. -Oh, I can't believe I missed that! -

He glanced at you and you stopped. -Sorry- you said.

He sighed nervously. -I'm too sober for this-

You frowned. -You don't even drink-

-Well, maybe I should start! - 

You gave him a glass of wine and he took a sip.

-Disgusting- he said squinting his eyes.

You smiled. 

-You were pretty cute back there with my cousins-

The Master straightened his back.

-They were attacking me-

-Mh, you were playing with them-

-I was defending myself, those things are vicious-

-I should have brought a camera, I didn't know I would witness something like that-

-You're such a little brat-

You shrugged. -It's a gift, what can you do? -

-I have a few ideas in mind-

As much as you liked the turn the conversation was taking, you were interrupted again. 

The rest of the day went by pretty nicely if you had to be honest. You liked seeing your family again but mainly seeing the Master having to interact with them and you had to admit, he had been pretty amazing.

Once you were back in the TARDIS, the Master let himself fall on the closest chair. 

-That went well-

-It was the most exhausting experience of my entire life and that's saying something- he said.

You went to sit on his lap.

-Yes it was, but you were great- you said kissing him.

-Thank you- you added. -That meant a lot-

The Master looked at you seriously. 

-Don't mention it. But know that next time you'll have to find someone else to play your boyfriend-

-You wouldn't let anyone else do that- you teased.

-And that, my dear, is true- he said kissing you again.

Dhawan master with a reader who thinks 'oh no he's hot' ...except (gasp), they said it out loud! :o

Here it is! Thanks for the ask, dear. I read a fic with a similar prompt so I tried to write a plot as different as possible from that. I hope you like it! Also this is good for both M!Reader and F!Reader.

Plot: Y/N is a servant on the planet of Xeron and when the Master arrives with his army of cybermen, the Reader sees the perfect opportunity to finally leave.

Warnings: death and cruelty 

The screams coming from outside the room were high pitched and desperate. You could hear noises of laser and explosions getting closer to the door you were trying to keep locked.

-They’re coming! - 

The princess was crying like a baby, trying to squeeze herself against the farthest corner of the room.You rolled your eyes and kept pushing the door closed as you felt someone starting to do the exact opposite on the other side.

-Oh my gods, I’m gonna die! -she exclaimed covering her tear strained face with her hands.

-Keep that door closed! - she screamed hysterically.

-That’s what I’m trying to do- you explained, annoyed.-Well, try harder! - You grumbled. That girl had always been unbearable. At least since you had known her.

The Xerons had taken you away from your home planet when you were fourteen. You were given to the princess as a gift and she had kept you as a slave since then. You hated them. That planet, that race, that annoying, whining girl.

-I can’t die, I’m the princess! - you heard her moan.-Oh, so you think everybody who isn’t of regal blood can die like it’s no big deal? - you asked looking at her over your shoulder.-Of course, it wouldn’t be a big deal! But I’m the princess! I’m supposed to be the heir of the throne! -

You looked at her with an astonished expression. You didn’t particularly care what she thought and certainly, you didn’t give a damn about the inhabitants of Xeron. But if there was something you hated, it was people who believed to be above everyone else when, in fact, they were way below.

You took a step away from the door and you heard the lock cracking.

-What are you doing?! - screamed the princess in a panic.-I’m proving you wrong- you smiled.The door flew open and the cybermen entered the room, marching toward you both. -Who is the Princess? -You stepped away from the crying girl. -She’s all yours boys-

One of them picked the princess up as she screamed and kicked the air and you waved at her on the way out when suddenly you felt a metallic hand close around your wrist.

-What? I gave you the princess! I’m just a servant--The Master said, no civil prisoners-You frowned at them.-The Master? Who’s the Master? -

-The Master is our ally-

-Alright, then I demand to speak to him--The Master said no civil prisoners-

-Yes yes, I get that! - you snorted. -Look, you need me, alright? I’ve been held captive here for over ten years, I can provide you with whatever it is you’re looking for. Just let me talk to this Master-

The cybermen looked at each other, considering your words if they were even capable of that.-The prisoner shall be brought to the Master- -Finally-

The cybermen led you to the room of the throne where the main exponents of the reign were kept. They were all looking utterly terrified. You kinda felt satisfied at the sight. They had treated you like an animal all those years. Finally, some good old karma was making things right for you. You just needed to convince this Master guy to let you go, somehow.

The cybermen let go of your arms, leaving you next to one of the king’s counsellors. You were…in line?-Well well, who do we have here? -A jolly voice made you look toward the throne where a man was sitting with one of his legs thrown over the golden armrest. He was holding the sceptre in his right hand, moving it in the air like a child with his new toy.

-We have brought you the princess- said the mechanical voice of one of the cyberman.

The Master’s face light up in joy and he jumped from his seat. -Fantastic! - He said fixing his dark purple jacket as he walked toward the princess, who was visibly shaking on her feet.

-You must be…princess Janix- he said pointing at her. The princess let out a soft sob, clearly trying and failing to keep her composure.

-Oh, ssh sssh- he cooed sweetly. -There’s no reason to be scared--Please…let me go…- she whispered.-Now let’s not be unreasonable. Where would the fun be in that? - he said with a big, psycho smile.

He looked somewhat charming. Crazy as hell, but charming. You liked his demeanor and his dark hair and the way his locks fell perfectly on his forehead and his dark skin shining under the light of the torches.

-I will give you anything you want- she pleaded.-Mh- the Master placed his index on his chin, thoughtfully. You could tell even from a distance, he wasn’t even considering her offer.-But you see, my dear- he said getting closer to her ear. -I want destruction-The princess started shaking even harder and the Master rolled his eyes.-Now now- he said. -There is one thing you can do, to make me consider your proposal-

The princess looked up at him with hope. -What is it? Anything-

The Master’s eyes became darker and the smile on his face more mischievous.-Kneel-

You snorted. -Hot-

Everybody’s eyes were on you in a second. You didn’t notice at first, then you saw the disgusted face of the counsellors and the terrified and confused expression of the princess.

-Oh crap, did I say that out loud? - you asked looking around the room, meeting the Master’s eyes. He was looking at you with a deep, serious gaze and for a moment you thought he might just kill you now. But then he smiled. He looked…amused.

-You’re the quirky one, aren’t you? - he asked putting his hand on his hip.-You could say that--What’s your name? --Y/N-

The Master nodded. -You’re not part of the royal family-

You looked down at your dirty old clothes. -Clearly not. I’m a servant of the princess-  

-Why and how did you get here? -You looked toward the cybermen who were now resting against the doors to keep anyone from escaping.

-I asked to see you-The Master pretended to be flattered. -Who, poor old me? What for? - You grinned. -To avoid dying, mainly-He laughed. -Isn’t that what anybody wants? --Well, yeah but I have a good reason-

You could feel everybody watching you but you just ignored their gazes.

-Let’s hear it then-

That was your moments to try and convince him. -I spent most of my life kept here, working for the royal family. I wanna see the universe-

-And you think that’s a better reason than anybody’s? -You simply shrugged. -No, but I had the balls to speak up so I think that makes me different-

The Master was studying you like he was trying to decide whether to kill you or to keep you talking for a while more.

-It does indeed- he said with a thoughtfull expression, rubbing his beard.-If you’re so different as you claim- he started walking toward you. -Prove it-

He was only a few feet away now and you could see properly those chocolate eyes. They looked ancient like they had seen and lived more than anyone could ever imagine. You wanted that knowledge, you wanted to see the things that he saw. 

He handed you a small device with a red button on it.-Kill her-

You looked toward the princess, who now looked like she might faint any minute.

-It’s either you or her-You looked back at him. He had an excited spark in his eyes and you liked the way he was looking at you. You grabbed the object from his hand and walked toward the girl.

-Y/N please no, you know me, we’re friends! -

You didn’t let her finish her beg, you pushed the button and she fell to the ground. The whole room gasped and you heard someone clapping. -Brilliant! -

The Master was now behind you and you turned to face him. 

-I knew I liked you-

You smiled up at him. You could feel that was the start of something big.

[confusedhalfofthetime]

I am the previous anon 🥺👉👈 The prompts were "did you just hissed at me?", "Welcome back. Now fucking help me" and "kiss on the nose" (hope you have a lovely day)

Thank you so much for the request, darling. Hope you enjoy xx

Plot: the Reader and the Master had a row and they go their separate ways but they can’t stay away from each other for long.

Warning: blood, curse words a little bit of angst but mostly fluff. This can be both a F!Reader or an M!Reader, the gender is not specified.

Prompts: “Did you just hiss at me?”, “Welcome back, now fucking help me” + kiss on the nose.

You were home. Your old periphery apartment was even duller than you remembered. 

He did it. After all the times he said he would do it and you didn't believe him, the Master had finally left you. Just like that. He had flown the TARDIS to London and he had left you in front of your building with nothing more than a "get out". He didn't even look at you, he had just stood there, resting his hands on the console and clenching his jaw. 

So you had done as he said and left, not without slamming the door behind your back, of course.

You had felt mad, every unch of your body was hating him as you walked out. But now that you looked around and saw the white-grey walls, the dusty carpet and the untouched beer still on the table in your living room from the last time he had picked you up and you had followed him to the TARDIS, to the stars, to all of time and space, you couldn't feel anger even if you wanted. All you were feeling was cold. Probably because you hadn't switched on the heater in...how long had you been away? When you time travel it becomes impossible to tell.

You let out a long sigh. Well, it was done, there was no going back now. You just had to accept that.

Months passed. It felt more like a decade, to be honest. 

Work was always the same, boring, flat. No aliens to run away from, no kings to assassinate and most of all, no Master.

You missed him like crazy with his impossible socks and those unreadable dark eyes. You even missed your quarrels and his teasing. 

As you were deep in your thoughts, nibbling at your pen and completely ignoring the excessive amount of work on your desk, you heard someone screaming. You snapped out of your mind and turned around toward the window, right in time to see, on the street below the building, people running as fast as possible from a huge, red creature with long arms and even longer claws. It looked a bit like a mad chimpanzee. 

And then you saw him. The Master was clearly trying to calm the creature, holding something in his hand you couldn't see from there. Apparently, he was also failing in his attempt as the creature hit him with his claws. You gasped loudly and before you knew it, you were running outside. 

The street was a mess, people running and screaming and hiding in the closest shops. 

You saw the Master entering in one of the side streets and you followed him.

-Fuck...- you heard him mutter as he held his injured arm.

-Master...- you approached him and he turned around quickly. 

His sleeve was torn and you could see drops of blood falling from his wound.

-What are you doing here? - he asked.

-I work here. What are YOU doing here? -

The Master glanced behind your back, making sure the creature hadn't followed him.

-I'm working as well-

You rolled your eyes. -Of course you are. What is that thing? -

-It's not important. You should get back to work-

-I would if a gigantic alien monster hadn't appeared out of thin air! -

The Master looked at you seriously.

-What can I do? - you asked, ignoring the way his deep gaze made you feel.

-There's nothing you can do- he snapped.

You could practically see the walls getting up again, after everything you did to put them down.

-You're hurt, there's an alien attacking people in centre London and you're in no condition to stop it alone so I'm gonna ask again: what can I do? -

The Master bit his lip, considering your words.

-Fine- he gave in. -Distract it, I just need a few minutes to adjust this stupid thing- he said slapping the TCE he was holding with his blood-stained hand.

Of course you were gonna be the bait. You nodded either way and ran out of your hiding place. The creature was busy destroying a trash can and chewing on it like it was a piece of bread. 

-Hey you, stupid...monkey! -

The alien turned toward you, his eyes dark and hungry and his mouth drooling and wide open.

-Oh shit- 

You started running like hell. Oh, you had missed it.

As you passed the halley, the Master jumped between you and the creature and pushed the button on his TCE. Which didn't work.

-Oh, come on! - he said sounding exasperated.

In no time, the monster was on him, as the Time Lord struggled to push his long arms away from him.

-You know, this reminds me of so many bad days- you said, terrified but slightly amused. 

-Yeah yeah, welcome back, now fucking help me! - he shouted through gritted teeth.

-Oh, yeah, right- you looked around and saw a cane someone probably dropped while running away. You picked it up and hit the alien with it. It gave in a painful, animal-like noise and you took a step back as it got on his two feet and raised his clawed hand.

The Master quickly jumped up and pointed the TCE against it once again. This time, fortunately, it worked. 

-Thank you- you said as the Time Lord picked the now tiny creature in his hand. He glanced at you and put it into his pocket.

-You weren't so bad yourself-

That was the maximum of his compliments. You definitely had missed him.

-Does it hurt? - you asked pocking his arm. 

-Ouch! -

-Sorry...isn't it suppose to close on its own? -

-That bastard had poisonous claws. It prevents wounds from closing instantly. It'll heal, eventually- he said looking annoyed.

-Let me patch it up- you suggested.

The Master looked at you in silence, considering your proposition for a few moments before nodding and leading you toward the TARDIS. You entered with a smile on your face. The ship had become your home. You couldn't believe how much you had missed it. The TARDIS' console activated to welcome you with that familiar noise you liked so much.

-I missed you too beautiful- you said caressing the console.

The Master looked at you without you noticing. He didn't think he would ever see you again after your row. Yet, there you were, talking to his TARDIS as if it were a pet. 

He collapsed on the nearest chair and you directed your attention back to him. You took the emergency kit from the cupboard he kept it in and went to sit next to him.

-Alright, take off your shirt- 

He smirked. -So many memories- 

You rolled your eyes, trying to focus on wetting the cotton instead of his necked chest.

As soon as you placed it on the Master's arm he hissed. 

-...did you just hiss at me? -

-Maybe if you were a bit more delicate...ouch! -

-You're such a baby-

You said tapping as softly as you could on the open wound.

-Did you mean it? What you said back there? - you asked out of the blue. -When you said "welcome back" -

The Master kept looking ahead in silence. -You are welcome to stay. If you want-

You smiled, keeping your eyes on the wound.

-And- he paused, taking a deep breath. -I'm sorry for making you leave-

You did not expect that. He turned to look at you as you didn't answer.

-To be honest- you said. -I don't even remember what we argued about- 

The Master grinned and winched slightly as you put bandages around his arm.

-And I'll be more than happy to come back- you said as you finished patching him up. You left a kiss on the bandage and then another one on his nose. 

-I missed you- you admitted.

-I know- 

You laughed and pushed him slightly on his good arm.

-Alright, alright. I missed you too-
