Archaeology, Natural Disasters and You [Closed]

The trip down revealed that Taleen was going to be of several things, none of which were pleasant. Arid, pale with a light dusting of red from the rocks, and yellow-white grass that extended in plains all the way towards far off mountains . There was a giant gash in the land near the orb landing area, which resolved itself into a massive canyon as the party drew closer. Spider webbing out across the top of the canyon were signs that a civilization had once flourished here. Traces of broken pillars and half submerged buildings, as well as what looked like a downed ship that had embedded itself in a massive building. There was no movement visible amongst the ruins now. As the dry wind blew through the stonework, it would became clear that they were walking into a mass graveyard.

Not somewhere you'd want to spend your vacation.

For some people, this was going to be a field day.

According to the scans and what little records they had, there hasn't been a sentient being around for hundreds of years. The majority of native wildlife had moved out of the area, seeking refuge. The land looked dead already. In the sky above, several specks of light twinkled in the sky, growing bigger with each passing hour. In a few days, it will be raining fire.

Might wrap this up, if that's cool?

The Doctor went still. "Ah."

He gave the Master one of those half disproving, mostly disappointed looks. Remarks like that only reminded him how different they were. That the Master could be as brilliant as he wanted and yet there was that...his quite frankly unfortunate view of humans and, the Doctor suspected, life in general that didn't include himself. The Doctor frowned at the Master and on second thought, gave him another frown because honestly, one wasn't good enough as far as he was concerned. That man! He could be so much if he wanted to!

"Well, I don't plan on there being any human deaths," the Doctor said icily. "So I imagine it'd be rather dull for you unless you can find something else to keep yourself busy with."

Works for me :)

"You never do plan on it, though, do you?" the Master commented airily, rather enjoying the emotions flitting over the Doctor's face. "It just seems to... happen around you."

And then he turned his back on the other Time Lord, abruptly, and dug into his pocket for another dose of Anetrizine. "Don't worry, Doctor," he said, placing the hypospray to his neck. "Your precious humans are safe from me. I've got infinitely more interesting things to do with my time."
