Primeval drabble: Decisions

Title: Decisions
Author: knitekat
Word Count: 100
Characters: James Lester, OWC
Rating: 12
Disclaimer: Primeval belongs to Impossible Pictures. Certainly not me. Writing for fun and will replace.
A/N: For the P100 challenge 252: Cliffhanger. Part of my Dreams Of Yesterday drabble series and continues from Holding On Tight. Thanks to Fred for looking at it for me.


James paused to consider his options once the cub was safely in the bag attached to his waist. He didn't like either of them, not with his arm sending pain spiking along his nerves.

Up led to the plateau, to Abby and safety but the risk of slipping and plummeting down the cliff if his arm gave out.

Down would seem to be safer. He could make his way down in a controlled slide. Except that down there he would be alone and injured in a creature infested jungle at least eight days from the relative safety of the plateau.

Erk! Not good choices either way ...

*Gnaws nails and whimpers*

LOL. But it has too, the prompt says cliffhanger ;)

Possibly next prompt *eg*

Thanks for reading.

Definitely not, but I'm sure mostly sure anyway that James and the cub will be fine.

Thanks for reading.

*oops for your nails, distracts with naked man/men of freddie's choice*

I'm sure they will be fine.

Thanks for reading.

Oh, the tension......

Another terrific drabble in a terrific series

Had to be with the prompt ;)

*blushes* Thank you very much.

Eeek! (For the second time this week! That *is* fairly evil of you :-) ) Good drabble.

Focuses on the happy bit: he's rescued the wolf!

*goes and lies down to soothe frazzled nerves until the next installment*

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2012-03-05 10:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Sorry. James certainly isn't happy having to make that decision. Thanks for reading.

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2012-03-05 10:13 pm (UTC)(link)
Not at all, but James will have to make his mind up *nods*

Thanks for reading.

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2012-03-05 10:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Sorry, but I had another idea for the prompt. *evil laughter* ;)

Thanks, glad you liked it - even with the eek.

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2012-03-05 10:22 pm (UTC)(link)
That is definitely the happy bit - the cub is extremely happy to be with his daddy. He'll be even happier when they manage to join mummy too.

*Sorry* Um, as long as the next prompt lets me continue this

Thanks for reading.

I really really hope for something useful with next prompt, because with cliffhanger you're being very very mean!!! ;)

I blame the prompt, but EEK and ARRGH!

[identity profile] joshinator.livejournal.com 2012-03-06 02:31 am (UTC)(link)
Yay for the rescued cub -and fingers (and toes) crossed....

OH GOD. THAT IS ALL.

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2012-03-06 09:12 pm (UTC)(link)
We will have to see ;) But, the prompt said cliffhanger ;)

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2012-03-06 09:13 pm (UTC)(link)
Sorry, but yes. Thanks for reading, even with the eek.

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2012-03-06 09:14 pm (UTC)(link)
I blame the prompt too ;) Sorry for the eek and arrgh, but thanks for reading.

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2012-03-06 09:15 pm (UTC)(link)
I had to rescue the cub. James would cross his, but he needs them at the moment.

Thanks for reading.

Awww, the puppy icons back.

Sorry.

Thanks for reading.

[personal profile] samueljames 2012-03-09 09:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh no, poor Lester.

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2012-03-09 09:39 pm (UTC)(link)
And poor Cub. I'm being mean to both of them ;) Thanks for reading.

[identity profile] lsellersfic.livejournal.com 2012-03-10 11:02 am (UTC)(link)
Aargh! Nasty choice!

[identity profile] deinonychus-1.livejournal.com 2012-03-10 06:13 pm (UTC)(link)
eeeek! Not good options at all.

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2012-03-10 07:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Sorry ;) James certainly isn't looking forward to deciding which way to go. Thanks for reading.

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2012-03-10 07:52 pm (UTC)(link)
James isn't keen on his options either. Thanks for reading.
