Fic: The Professor's Tale

Title: The Professor's Tale
Characters: young!Master, Original Time Lord Character, Doctor/Master implied
Era: Academy
Rating: PG (for violence only, sorry, they're eight). But, it's pretty dark.
Summary: When the universe turns itself inside out, the hero becomes the villain, the villain becomes the hero. Life becomes death, death becomes life, mercy becomes violence and violence becomes mercy. And all it takes is the destruction of one child.
Episodes: This fic will make no sense whatsoever if you haven't seen Utopia/Sound of Drums/Last of the Time Lords and End of Time parts 1 and 2. Also contains vague, non-spoilery references to the BFA audio 'Master'.
Acknowledgements: [livejournal.com profile] eye_of_a_cat for betareading and telling me the premise isn't crack, and [livejournal.com profile] x_los for the inspiration.

The universe is finite and cyclical, yet infinite in its circles, endless as the drum-beats in the Master's mind.
