Operation Save Bill Potts continues! This time, Bill gets a title/name like all the cool kids!
More chapters of [[ Scream of the Shalka / S10 finale fixit fic, ]] Where Thereâs Life, Thereâs Hope, are up at AO3. Itâs about Alison Cheney, her robot [the Master], and the Doctor bouncing over from the Shalkaverse to save Bill from the terrifying Twelfth Doctor. Things become slightly complicated as they realize that Bill is working with another version of the Master [Razor] to de-Cyber people and overthrow Dystopiavilleâs totalitarian regime.Â
In this excerpt, Bill gets a title/name like the Doctor, the Master, and the Domina [Alison]:
âI think you should have a title,â says the Doctor, chewing meditatively. âI mean, all the cool kids do.â
âWho, me?â Bill looks up from Alisonâs breakfastâs smells again.
âYeah, itâs very disrespectful of the Master not to use it,â says the Doctor, deadpan, as if she already has one.
âI could be a proper noun just like the rest of the family, yeah?â Bill beams. âMaybe something about my heartâŠâ She thinks of the possibilities.
âYour sense of wonderâŠâ says the Doctor.
âQuaestrix?â  offers Alison around a mouthful of poached eggs. âThat means  asker of questions.â
âToo fancy.â The Doctor waves their hands. âOooh! Ooooh!â The waving turns into excited flapping. Â âThe Seeker!â
âOoooh! Yeah, thatâs me!â exclaims Bill. âIâm the Seeker! The Doctor, the Master, the Domina, and me: the Seeker!â
âGoooooooo team!â says the Doctor, sounding like a cheerleader, and everyone laughs.
