Short fic and beta request

I have a fic and a beta request.
The beta request: I've got a growing pile of half-assembled Who-fic sitting in my Google Docs (pretty much either introspective Doctor stuff or Doctor/Master), but I need a hand polishing my writing. I'm a good writer technically (perhaps a little overfond of commas), but I'm out of practice with fiction, so so if anybody is inclined to volunteer for some beta-reading/sounding-board-ism, hit me (not literally, please, I bruise easily). I'm not good at writing in a vacuum.
Likewise, on this story in particular, which is less a proper story and more a scene that popped into my head, if anyone has comments or advice on how to make this snap (or on expanding it; I'm not averse to the idea), I'd love to hear the feedback. I am never the least bit afraid of honestly-offered criticism, no matter how brutal-sounding. In fact, I rather enjoy it when people tell me I'm wrong or point out my mistakes, because a lively debate is one of my favorite things. So is improving.
I believe this fic can find a proper home here, though I'm not absolutely sure. If it doesn't fit the spirit of the comm, let me know.
( Weapon of Last Resort; about 400 words )
Oh, one more request: how should I tag this, do you think?
