lindenharpTitle: The Laundry Officer's Tale
Series: Valiant Tales. Read them in order here.
Rating: G
Characters: The Master (Simm), other characters
Genre: drabble
Spoilers: Minor spoilers for The Sound of Drums and Last of the Time Lords.
Summary: A series of drabbles about the people who lived, worked, and suffered on the Valiant during the Year That Never Was. 100 words according to MS Word.
Disclaimer: The sandbox belongs to RTD and the BBC. I'm just playing here, in the corner, making little sand-TARDISs.
We work around the clock. Hundreds of people, multiply by two uniforms each, add linens -- it's a mountain. I don't get out much. I bunk here. My "assistants" -- slave workers -- fetch food from the mess. Poor buggers don't speak English, and can't gossip. Still, I know things. Dirty clothes tell stories about contraband gin, and female company on cargo runs. There are darker sins. Certain uniforms are repeatedly spattered with blood. I return them spotless... and keep a list of names. Someday, justice will prevail. Beneath the immaculate uniforms, the stains on their souls will be seen.
