- "You really don't have to do that," The Master called after her, dropping the act for a minute as he waited, running his hands down his face and putting it right back on as she appeared. He took the cup gently, smiling with a soft, "Thank you," followed up with a, "but you really don't have to do that, Irene. I'm okay."

'It's nice to see him smile.' Irene realized this was truly why she loved helping people. There really was nothing like getting someone going through rough times to smile. "It's no big deal. You deserve to treat yourself every now and then and if you don't have the money to do it yourself you should at least have a friend to do it for you." She returned his smile

- Taking a sip of the hot chocolate, The Master pondered this. Oh, she was so sweet. Too bad he hated sweet people. It wasn't candy but it was enough to give him a toothache, in all honesty. They were just so... ugh, gooey and mushy and lovey-dovey. It was everything that he consistently aspired not to be.
"I have the money," he said in between sips with a shrug, "just left my wallet at home, I guess."

"Well then you can pay me back later." She playfully stuck her tongue out at him. Of course she wasn't serious. Irene didn't expect a dime in return for anything. Just being around someone else outside of her workplace felt nice and that was all the payback she needed

- "Well, okay," he said, a small smile on his face as he took a sip, "I will. Shall we go?" He gestured down the street where people were walking. It must've been a weekend or a holiday, since a lot of them were kids. He didn't even know what month it was, actually. Oh well.

"We shall." Irenes face almost started to hurt from all the non stop smiling she had been doing. It seemed more and more people filled the streets, both on the road and on the sidewalk as the sun climbed its way into the sky little by little. The warmth it let off felt good, but wasn't enough to shake the late fall chill of northern Georgia. Irenes eyes scanned for a particular department store she had shopped at for years now that she knew had decent prices and awesome clothes. "Let me know if you see anything you want to check out." She offered. She knew this city like the back of her hand and was also more than willing to stop by any place Will wanted to if it helped him feel better

- The Master knew what most of these stores were. During his boring, human time as Harold Saxon he'd seen a lot of them and been inside a few. The few he'd been in were boring, at least in his humble opinion. But, he felt like he had to at least humor this human for a little before he found a way to get out of here. "Those are everywhere," he commented, gesturing to a block of retail clothing stores, "even in England."

"Ohhhh you're from England?" Irene felt her face burn with embarrassment, feeling foolish for not recognizing that sooner. She knew he wasn't american but couldn't quite place where he was from. Now that he said it, she could see him as a Brit. Laughing she said, "I can't believe that didn't click until now."

- Was she stupid? As far as he knew, all Time Lords sounded like they were from the general region of England when they were speaking, you know, English. "Not originally," he shrugged, "but yes, I spent a lot of time there. I guess I just picked up the accent." He shrugged, grinning as he glanced back over at her, "And I'm guessing you're from America?"

"What gave you that idea?" Irene smirked. She was about as American as you could get - all she needed was a giant flag tattoo and she would be set.
Sorry it took so long for such a short reply >.< ill try to stop doing that in the future))

- "The accent, the clothes, the fact that you've clearly had braces," he replied, flashing his own teeth and saying, "thank god mine were just nice in the first place." English humans did have terrible, terrible teeth. No good dental care. Maybe if he'd continued on being their commander-in-chief he could've fixed that, but there'd been a few... hitches.

Irene quickly covered her mouth with one hand. "Is it really that obvious?" She gasped. It was true she had braces running from the 5th grade up until the 9th. Then she laughed. "You really are peculiar, Will. And very observant."

- "Why, thank you," he replied, waggling his eyebrows and pausing as they passed by a Goodwill. He knew it was secondhand, but The Master was very particular about looking good, and all of the more inexpensive clothes for people his age didn't cut it. So, with a quick look through the window, he turned to Irene and asked, "Can we stop in there?"

"Of course we can." Irene opened the door and gestured for him to go ahead in. She remembered the days she bought literally everything aside from food at this store, back when she was fresh out of college and dead broke. It was still on her list of favorite stores even though she came by less now days.

- The Master gave her a nod as he stepped inside, nearly ignoring the cashier who greeted him before he decided that that was out of character and he gave her a nod and smile. The first thing he did was head towards the shirts, beginning to pick through the smalls with a contemplative look on his face.

The woman's clothes were close enough that Irene could still see Will as she tried to find something herself. Naturally, it was the jackets that drew her attention-because she didn't have enough already- and she picked up a black trench coat that probably would have reached the back of her knees had she put it on (true story😂 I actually found a trench coat at goodwill and was so close to buying it)

- The Master glanced up as she tried it on, not commenting as he rifled through the clothes. Soon, he had found a coat he liked too. It was simple, woolen and black and heavy in his hands. It came down to his hips when he put it on and and didn't get in the way of his fingers. It must've been faux wool though, since checking it he saw it was only marked at twenty dollars. Did he mind? A little. He was a tad picky about his clothing.

Irene decided she liked the coat enough to buy it and hoped it wouldn't be something she forgot about and found three years later. She headed over to Will. "You look nice. Want it?" She smiled, being completely sincere.

- "Really?" he asked. It was only twenty dollars, but then again she couldn't be that broke, so he decided to pull the, "I mean, if you're sure..." card, with that little smile that seemed to make her go all gushy.

He's like a little puppy. Irene thought with a small smile. "Anything you want. I'm treating you to a little destressing after all." She replied without a moments hesitation. At the same time, she could practically hear her wallet moan. Not like she was going to let Will know she was having some financial struggles. She would bounce back anytime now

- "Oh, well, uh, thank you," The Master said, literally forcing himself to blush as he took off the coat, carefully folding it over his arm, "this is all." No, he wanted more, but he had to be careful. He had to play it like the sweet, innocent gay guy who had gotten into a fight with his boyfriend and just needed a bit of help with getting back on his feet.

When the overlord acts like a cinnamon roll😂that's kinda how I see this RN))
Irene handed the cashier her card and paid for the two pieces of clothing. "Don't be humble." Irene playfully bumped him. "You see it, you like it, I get it." She wondered why she was giving so much into helping this guy, but she couldn't resist

{ yeah xD i'm thinking about bringing the doctor in eventually. i don't know if you'd want him, or... }
- "You don't want to tell me that," The Master chuckled, taking the coat and giving the cashier a nod after it was paid for, "for all you know I'm full of expensive tastes." He even held open the door as they headed over towards it to put an extra cherry on top. It was drizzling a bit now, so thank god he had a new coat, right? Maybe he'd even keep it as a memento.
As for Irene, he didn't know what he'd do with her. He couldn't just kill her. That was must to hasty. He could wipe her memories but that was a lot of work. He'd figure something out.

You can take him if you want ^.^ it's all the same to me.))
Irene looked up at the clouds were building and causing the slight drizzle. The rain always made her feel sad and this rain was freezing cold due to the time of year. Nevertheless her smile never faded for a second, wanting to remain a cheerful companion for Will. "Where to now?" She asked with a shiver

{ ok }
- The Master was about to be a gentleman and remark about how she was shivering, maybe recommend a nice soup kitchen since he had no money at the moment. But, that was when he saw him: tall, swath of brown hair, freckles, plowing towards them like a bull in a china shop... that was definitely The Doctor, and they locked eyes for a second before, as casually as he could, The Master gestured the opposite way:
"Do you want to go and find a place to stay out of the rain until it stops?"

"Sounds nice." Irene admitted. "There's a bar close by. I don't drink, but their food is pretty good." Her stomach rumbled as she remembered she had only coffee and hot chocolate this morning.
Oh snap and the plot thickens with the Doctors arrival xD))

- "I don't have my I.D. to drink, but I could use some food," The Master shrugged, his steps quick as he headed down the street, expecting her to get faster to lead. He wasn't that must taller than she was, so she'd be able to get there fast, right? After that, well, he'd find somewhere to hide. He wasn't sure if The Doctor would follow him inside or not, but he was leaning towards a yes on that.

Irene wondered if everything was alright, noting how quickly he was walking. She was only about a head shorter than him so it wasn't too much of a problem to keep up, but that didn't mean she felt like a powerwalk today. "Hey Will, are you okay?" She grabbed his arm without thinking, realizing afterward he might not approve of her touching him

- It took everything that The Master had in him to not backhand Irene as she grabbed onto him. He looked back at her, then over her shoulder, before looking back down to her and saying, softly, voice in a low hiss, "My boyfriend... just saw him...." He looked over her shoulder again, but he'd lost sight of The Doctor in the swarm of people going down the road.
