[Challenge #223: Holiday] Doctor Who: 'The Tree'

Title: 'The Tree'
Fandom: Doctor Who
Rating: G
Notes: Crossposted to [community profile] adventdrabbles

Missy stares disdainfully at the item the Doctor has brought for her. Something to brighten up the Vault, he'd hinted at the time. For the "holidays".

She'd like to be insulted. Humans have never been worth the bother, as far as she's concerned. Why bother with one of their silly little festivals?

It feels more like a green babysitter, keeping her company when the Doctor can't be bothered to stop in for a bit. It'll be Christmas presents, next, and thank-you notes.

Ridiculous.

Just the same, Missy realizes, scanning the tree, it does rather make things a bit cheerier.
