Final chapters In this world you cannot change

Oh yeah, it has been a while, but I've managed to finish the fic. Here is first of a two parter, tomorrow the second part will be posted. Thank you all for keeping your interest.

Title: In this world you cannot change
Pairing: Master/Donna/Doctor
Rated: PG

Summary:

A year has passed since the earth was restored to its rightful place in the solar system. Donna, a timelord’s excompanion, is oblivious of her previous adventures, but fails to find happiness in the routine of every day life. At the same time, a troubled young man with severe memory loss tries to survive in the streets. His only valuable possession that links him to his past is a ring engraved with alien symbols. When his ring accidentally falls into Donna’s hands, strange events follow, starting with dreams in which she’s haunted by a man in a mysterious blue wooden box. When Donna sets out to find the ring’s owner, she soon finds herself in danger as the identity of the young man is revealed to his enemies. While the secret of the ring unfolds, the past catches up with Donna and the master of the ring. Both find their fates entwined in an adventure that could change history, forever.

Chapter 19 is up.

Many Apologies

I’m very ashamed for the lack of updates lately. One glance at the stats and I realized that it had been months since I’ve posted something new. As for the story-updates…I still need to finish the final chapter…I don’t know but I just have trouble concentrating. It’s written down for about 70%, I just need to write down the rest of the 30%, should be done in one afternoon, maybe I just have to stop whining and get on with it.

Anyway, Ashes to Ashes is driving me nuts…they keep dropping these little hints on LOM. I don’t know what they are trying to do with this…I just keep watching and hoping that Sam turns up. Meanwhile, the website keeps a profile of Sam Tyler as if he’s still part of the cast…Maybe he will turn up at this season’s final when Alex wakes up…in 1993….

Yeah, keeps you going for another season, only Gene will be ancient by then…

Reviews for chapter 18

I opened my email this morning and read all the wonderful reviews for the last chapter. It was all very encouraging really, although I had not expected to receive this type of response on what happened to the future Master (won't mention too much for I don't want to spoil the end for those who haven't read it yet). I can understand that he evoked some sympathy because he kinda redeemed himself at the end, but like Tish said, nothing would have happened if it wasn't for him in the first place. I've tried to write him not too likable because he and the past Master are still the same man, but obviously, I've failed...miserably (Sorry, I'm being a bit of a nag right now). Still, Donna deserves some sort of happy ending, and I still have one last chapter to write...So I better start on it.

In case you wondered about the picture, it's from the photo shoot from the Devil's Whore interview, thought he looked rather Master-like on this one.

Finally, chapter is up

I suddenly realize that it was chapter 18 and not 17 that was added. Sorry, but it seems that my head is filled with cotton nowadays. Still, there is a new chapter posted and you can find it here.

As always, if you enjoy it, please review or comment.

New to the story and want to read the whole 400 pages long thing from the start on paper instead from a computer screen? Look to the right side and click on the "The Master of the Ring" picture to go the LULU.com website to download the entire story in PDF or to get it in paperback version.

Chapter 17 editing keeps going on forever

I tried to edit chapter 17 of my Master/Donna fic: "in this world you cannot change", which I wrote a week ago, but it's still not the way it should be. I keep working on it, but the story just doesn't flow, hopefully I get it fixed soon and it's up by tomorrow. I went to Amsterdam yesterday and bought "The Story of Martha" Because the reviews are not too bad and it deals with the stuff that happened to her in the year that never was. The first few chapters were okay, but it's pretty much Masterless. I don't understand why the BBC doesn't publish books that are more focussed on the Doctor's evil counterpart. With the character being so widely popular, a novelization centered around the Master wouldn't hurt their cash register. I started writing fiction just because there wasn't anything out there to read, and I'm pretty much a lazy sod, so go figure!

Calmed down now

Rewatched confidential on youtube, gotta say the guy starts to grow on me. The clips with him with the glasses makes him look indeed older and more Doctor-like. So let's see how he's going to turn out.

New Doctor is anounced

And it is....Matt Smith???

He is 26, and going to take over the Tardis keys from Dave in 2010, with filming starting this summer..

Who the F* is Matt Smith??

So there goes Steven Moffat's promise to cast an older actor.
Must admit, I am shocked if not horrified. During the interview, the young actor seemed somewhat hyperactive, and lacked charm, and that hairdo sends me right back to the eighties...Not a good thing.

Maybe a bit too early to say this, but I think Moffat has officially killed Doctor Who for me by casting this bloke.

New Doctor on betfair, why oh why?

Before I read the article on Outpost Gallifrey I've never heard of betfair before, but apparently there is a bet on who will be the next Doctor. You can put your money on the different names mentioned during the last few months in the media. Here is the list with the odds.

Who likes a bet?

John was still in the race according to this (yeah...right...).

One thing is clear, Patterson Joseph is a favorite here. He is a BBC drama actor who has also done a couple movies, nothing major, but then again, David wasn't that well known before he did Doctor Who. Curious how he looks like? Go here.


According to the Doctor Who site, the betmakers have closed down the bets on this actor because there is a strong rumor going around that indeed, Patterson is going to be the new Doctor.

I don't mind if he were going to be the next Doctor, but I have to admit that I had my own favorites. I don't know the work of this actor, but am sure to check out his previous work once this news is proven to be correct!

Right, still two hours to go before all is revealed...

New Doctor to be announced

I went to Outpost Gallifrey this morning, and look what I found:


*************

January 2, 2009 • Posted By Paul Hayes
BBC News has announced that the identity of the actor who will play the Eleventh Doctor, succeeding current Doctor David Tennant, will be revealed tomorrow.

The news will come in a special edition of tie-in documentary series Doctor Who Confidential, which is being transmitted on BBC One tomorrow evening at 5.35pm. The episode will also be shown at the same time on BBC Big Screens in town centres across the UK.

The actor was confirmed in the role over the Christmas period and will begin filming for Series Five this summer, for transmission in 2010. New executive producer Piers Wenger is quoted as saying: "We believe the actor is going to bring something very special to the role and will make it absolutely their own. I just can't wait to tell everyone who it is - it has been a nail-biting Christmas trying to keep this under wraps!"

The release from the BBC Press Office confirms that the Confidential episode has been retitled "The Eleventh Doctor" (it was formerly advertised as "The Ten Doctors"), and will feature the actor concerned giving his or her thoughts on having been cast. The press release also suggests that the last of David Tennant's episodes as the Doctor will be broadcast in the New Year of 2010.

The BBC has created a special trailer for the Doctor Who Confidential episode, which is also available to British internet users on its official YouTube page.

Well, that is absolutely brilliant!

Don't want to spoil too much, so here is the trailer for the special as posted on the official BBC youtube channel:

I think they went for Morrisey, the guy who played Dr. Jackson at the Christmas special, but we shall see tonight. For those living somewhere without the precious BBC channels, I'll keep you informed!

The Doctor and the Prisoner of Rome

Description:

Marcellus Quintus, a slave from Londinium, came to the ancient capital of Rome in chains and was sold into prostitution by his cruel master. The young slave suffers a hard and degrading life at the hand of his patron and the clients of the popular brothel, while he remains ignorant of his past and his true identity. Haunted by nightmares, and the voice of a ruthless stranger who is his mirror image, his only solace is senator Cealus Hortalus, who offers help in regaining his lost memory. When the theft of his patron’s assets is unjustly blamed on Marcellus, the poor slave’s life is in great peril as he is forced to endure the cruel punishments for the crime.

Meanwhile, 2000 years in the future, the Doctor finally discovers that he has entrusted the care of his defeated arch-nemesis in the wrong hands. He immediately travels back in time to rescue Marcellus, but will the Doctor be able to save the prisoner’s life before it’s too late?
