[Filtered to Sonja and Juliet // Somewhat hackable]

[There's unhappy, and there's what the Master looks like right now. He's clearly been crying for a while, his eyes red-rimmed, even if he's tried to clean himself up a bit.]

S-Sonja...Juliet...either of you... I'd..really appreciate someone to talk to right now. Things went...so horribly wrong, and I--

[He chokes up with a slight sob, and scrambles to end the call. But he fails to actually hit the button, so left on the screen for a good few minutes before the feed times off is a sobbing Time Lord curled up in on himself.]

Send me coordinates.

[She's seething inside, because she catches that first syllable of his former friend's name. But she doesn't want to upset him further. If that horrid man has truly reduced him to this state, she'll gut him.]

[She nods.]

Ten minutes, Lord Saxon.

[And she cuts the feed, all but flying out the door, her PCD tucked into a little purse-like pouch she'd sewn before she became affected by the event. And with each step, her anger at the situation grows. For anyone to have hurt the man in such a way - clearly everyone who was "warning" her this week had been trying to use her to hurt him. And for that, she wanted to hurt something. She stops just short of his door and takes a few breaths to calm herself down. Right now, she has to comfort a very dear friend.]

Lord Saxon? Are you in, good sir?

[She knocks as she speaks, because it's rude to just barge into someone's home.]

[He's been expecting her, so he stands by the door and tries to look less miserable than he is. It's not working very well. He opens the door, nodding to her.]

...it's good to see you, Juliet.

It is good to see you as well. Would that you were in a happier mood.

Do you wish to speak of it, Lord Saxon?

He... I went... He agreed to go on a date with me. And I...I thought....he actually cared, b-but he...he spent the time telling me how he never loved me, never cared, always...always hated me, never was worth it...

[She listens carefully, still stroking his hair and holding him close while he speaks. Where he cannot see, her eyes narrow. To toy with his affections - this to her is worse than physical harm.]

He is not worthy of you, Lord Saxon. If he can be so cruel and callous to you, he is not worth the love and affection you bestow upon him.

[A pause. Barely a moment.]

Which of him told you these horrible things?

[She makes a note of that description. There will be words later.]

My poor Lord Saxon.... To love so deeply, and to be treated thus. He has gone too far in his ill-treatment of you. And he is truly a fool if he cannot understand your love and return it.

[The sob has her squeezing him again, and draws her mind from thoughts of vengeance.]

I don't...I don't know what to do, I just... I don't... I've settled with him never loving me back, but to hear...all of it thrown at me, I...

You should not have to settle for such things. And he was insensitive and cruel to say such to you as he did.

[Would that she could make this Doctor suffer as much as he has made Lord Saxon suffer. Right now, she would do it without hesitation.]

What is it you wish to do, Lord Saxon?

It is difficult to stop loving someone. I do not think I have ever done so, in my brief life. I imagine it must only be harder when that love has lasted centuries. Do not give it up, Lord Saxon. You are upset, and rightly so, with how he has treated you. But, as you advised me only a few days ago, one should not make decisions in haste, particularly concerning love. When the immediacy of what has happened has faded, you will be able to see the path more clearly.

[She squeezes him again.]

But I do not like to see you so upset. Someone you love should not cause you such pain, especially not deliberately.

You're right. ... [He just keeps on hugging her.] I don't know what I would do without you, Juliet. You... You're the only person who doesn't judge me. You're the only person that truly cares and will see past that I've done horrible things. I... I thank you.

Everyone does horrible things. My cousin has done a horrible thing. My husband has done a most horrible thing. I cannot love them any less because of those things, because they are good men. As are you. You are a good man, and do not let anyone tell you differently. That you repent your actions of the past, that you do good things here, that you have reached out to your Doctor time and again - all of this proves that you are a good man. You have been a friend to me, and I do not abandon my friends, Lord Saxon.

J-Juliet... [He almost wants to cry. It's more than he's had in centuries.] No one... no one has truly cared for me in this way since my first century of life... I don't know what to say. I don't know how to thank you.

Continue to be my friend, and allow me to be yours, Lord Saxon. I value your friendship highly.
