A two-part look at
Survival, with the first fic as ridiculously funny as that episode was, and the second fic as serious as that episode insisted it could be.
Title: Survival Take One: Failure Rate
Author: x_los
Rating: PG-13
Pairing: Seven/Ainley!Master
Summary: Crack!Response to
Survival. The Master employs amazing long-term pick-up strategies, at the expense of the Doctor's sanity and Bernaz the Sentient Muskrat of Woe.
Beta: The lovely
bagheera_san, who made this much more fun.
A/N: While
bagheera_san joked that "the serious!fic could be the sequel to this! Which would be both comic and tragic," which was actually pretty awesome, they're written as detached, non-linear perspectives.

Title: Survival Take Two: Short Time Horizons
Author: x_los
Rating: PG-13
Pairing: Seven/Ainley!Master
Summary: Serious response to
Survival. "A man is the sum of his memories, you know. A Time Lord even more so." A bitter-sweet peace for the Doctor and the Master.
Beta: Again
bagheera_san, who made this better thought through.
