The Best Enemies Big Bang was a big bang challenge in the Doctor Who fandom focused on the Doctor/Master pairing. Writers had to write a minimum of 20,000 words and artists had to create one piece. It was run a bit differently then other big bangs for the time in that writers could use fics they were already working on and post chapters as they went instead of wait until a reveal date, and artists were assigned a fic. It was hosted on the Best Enemies LiveJournal community, and was run consecutively with an AU challenge where writers would write less then 20,000 words in a shorter period of time.

Masterlist

Like Old Times , by tierfal

Summary: The Master breaks things in the TARDIS until the Doctor almost goes insane, then they end up in the Vivarium, and then all hell breaks loose. The Doctor is not liking any of this – and while he's at it, the dream-flashback-things really, really need to stop.

Stitching the Wounds , by blackletter

Summary: The Doctor and the Master work together to avert mutual and universal destruction. (Oh, look, it's a Three Era plot!) Only the Doctor is the Valeyard and the threat to the universe is himself.

Summary: In a universe where the Master works for the Celestial Intervention Agency, the Doctor inevitably finds himself on the wrong side of the law.

So Far Exceeds Expression , by neveralarch

Summary: The Doctor lands in 1671, and meets an old friend. Unfortunately that old friend has a plan, and he's never been very good at them. Worse, the military is kind of... disappearing.

Variations on Forever , by janeturenne

Summary: Some things are fixed. Some things can be changed. But the true nature of permanence isn't an easy lesson, even for a pair of Time Lords. A Master-POV take on the first fifteen hundred years of their lives—together, apart, and every state in between.
