Twisting the Knife ((closed RP, Jack Harkness, the Master))

[captian-smexy.livejournal.com]

Jack wanted revenge. The psychopathic, giggling maniac that had tortured him, killing him in increasingly inventive and horrible ways for an entire year was alive and within his reach. It wouldn’t take much to track the Master down and beat him to death, or at least into a very satisfying coma, but he was inclined towards something a little more creative.

 

The Doctor would disapprove. Hell, he’d be furious.

The Master’s reaction.. that would make it all worthwhile.

 

Jack was a quick study and had been reading up on the requirements and components for a good polyjuice potion. A few hairs nicked from the Doctor and he was ready to go. He had even been studying a charm to try and mask his rather odd time signature. It wouldn’t hold out for long, but maybe it would last just long enough.

 

A shorter, more slender man with dark hair in mad, askew spikes began walking the halls, brown trench coat flapping behind him, and an affable smile on his face. Halfway down the hall, he began to whistle.

Now he was starting to enjoy himself. Jack had been a victim of the Master's furious tirades long enough to recognize the signs of his increasing anger. It was only with a monumental effort that he suppressed a surge of jealousy. He could have loved the Doctor far better than the Master ever could.

Jack pulled back, a thin smile on his borrowed face. "Oh yes. I know precisely what it means tobe lost in those five minutes. When you whisper promises and lies that will change nothing - but you let yourself believe the lie. For five mintues that lie is truth and it is glorious. And what is it you would show me, I wonder."

Gotcha. How long did you think it would take me to figure it out, Freak?

"Idiot. How convincing do you think you're being? Every word out of your mouth, every gesture, you keep going farther afield. But you never did understand our little games, and you'd never want to face what's underneath them."

Stupid, oh so stupid and human. Trying to mindgame him.

"I showed him so many things. You were just a bit of stage-dressing. Of course, when it comes to the things he wanted to show me..."

He let himself feel it again for a moment, basked in the presence of that stolen form.

"Really, Jack, if you were less of a whore you might realize that it's harder than that to fake intimacy."

Jack laughed mockingly. It was just as well, he could feel the potion beginning to wear off. "Oh I know all about what he could show a man. Did you ever feel this body wrapped around you? It was spectacular," he lied smoothly. "One of the best I ever had."

"Lucy wasn't bad either," he added. Two lies could be more fun anyway.

Jack grunted as the potion lost its effect an hisform began to revert.

"Oh, now you're just being ridiculous, and proving how much you don't get it. If all it was about was rutting I'd have been bored long ago. And Lucy? There's grasping at straws and then there's just shooting yourself in the foot. Imagine, if any of you had actually paid her a bit of attention."

"Oh then please, do enlighten me. If there was one thing you enjoyed, it was hearing yourself talk. It might be a little different for you without your knives, torches ando other toys, but you can probably muddle through."

"What precisely was your aim with that little masquerade, Freak? Honestly, it's like a little boy who doesn't understand that Mummy and Daddy's relationship doesn't begin and end with him. Did you think you were going to learn something? Did you think it might help you understand how very peripheral you are?" So much easier now, laughing at a face that inspired little more than contempt. "I'm sorry to have to keep telling you this, Jack, but I'm just not that into you."

"You mean you haven't worked that out? Really? " Jack smirked. "Do I need to point out the obvious to the Time Lord? Some evil mastermind."

His fingers quietly tapped out a very familiar four-beat rhythm against his leg.

"Oh, don't tell me you were hoping for some tawdry mutual violation. I'm sure sexualizing everything is a wonderful coping mechanism for you, but I'm under no obligation to play along." He grinned, not bothering to pull away. "It would have made things so much easier for you, wouldn't it?"

"Mingling a little pain with sex can be much more fun," he admitted. "But if I wanted to get in your pants, I think I could be more inventive than a polyjuice illusion."

The touch was making his skin crawl, but he smiled and kept those thoughts buired deep.

"You're not 'getting in my pants'," the Master said, rolling his eyes. "If you want a bit of vicious hatesex to clear your head, go pick a fight with someone else. And really, you should be at least a little glad. Every time we were whiling away a few happy hours together, I could have been torturing someone else to a painful death. All those lives you saved." He giggled, licking his lips. "And your kidneys were perfect for juggling. I'd never quite gotten the hang of it before. The balance was just right."

[captian-smexy.livejournal.com]

"You were able to juggle because I showed you your timing sucked and you kept breaking your wrists. And now you really are mistaking me for him. I'm no saint and I sure as hell am no martyr."

He spun the Master away from him in a graceful move. "But I got what I wanted. And it's a good start."

Exactly what the Freak thought he'd achieved, the Master wasn't going to humor him by asking. He fixed Jack with a blistering glare instead, folding his arms tightly.
