Primeval drabble: Beginning To Wake?

Title: Beginning To Wake?
Author: knitekat
Word Count: 100
Characters: Connor Temple
Rating: 12
Disclaimer: Primeval belongs to Impossible Pictures. Certainly not me. Writing for fun and will replace.
A/N: For the P100 challenge 263: Domestic God(dess). Part of my Making An Impression drabble series and follows He No Longer Knew. Thanks go to Fred for looking it over for me, cheers m'dear.

Every expensive restaurant or chef-cooked meal Philip ordered had Connor feeling uncomfortable. They always reminded him of what he had lost when James left him.

Oh, they had gone out for meals, but James had never booked a place so upmarket Connor felt even breathing would break something.

James had cooked too, including meals he knew were Connor's favourites and every one had been a masterpiece. All the little things that said “I love you”.

Philip never bothered... did that mean Philip didn't love him?

Philip always said... no, he had never uttered those words.

Had he?

Was Abby right?

Erk! Abby is always right!

Come on Connor, use that super-brain. Of course Abby is right! :)

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2012-05-20 07:20 pm (UTC)(link)
He's trying, but he is still drugged. Abby is definitely right *nods* Thanks for reading.

[identity profile] ebonyfeather.livejournal.com 2012-05-20 06:46 pm (UTC)(link)
Come on, Connor, you're starting to get it!

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2012-05-20 07:21 pm (UTC)(link)
*nods* Connor is and I'm sure he will get it if he can stay away from Burton *eg* Thanks for reading.

We all know that the chances of Abby being wrong are rather remote.....

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2012-05-21 06:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Definitely. Thanks for reading.

[identity profile] flaccidduck.livejournal.com 2012-05-20 08:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Wake up and smell the roses Connor!

Great drabble.

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2012-05-21 06:07 pm (UTC)(link)
I think Connor's starting to smell the roses.

Thanks, glad you liked it.

"James had never booked a place so upmarket Connor felt even breathing would break something"

Poor old Connor's gotten himself in a bit of a state hasn't he......

*nods* Connor has due to Burton's machinations. Thanks for reading.

[identity profile] aunteeneenah.livejournal.com 2012-05-20 10:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, Duh! Connor! Of course Abby was right! God, what a doofus! You know, for a smart guy, he ain't too bright! Phillip/Ick! Nice job, though. You sure got a reaction! lol

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2012-05-21 06:10 pm (UTC)(link)
In Connor's defence, he is drugged ;) Bad!Philip.

Glad you liked it and thanks for reading.

[identity profile] aunteeneenah.livejournal.com 2012-05-21 06:15 pm (UTC)(link)
What!? Drugged!? Is this from a continuation that I've missed? and if so, how have I missed it? This is very upsetting to me. lol Anyway, is it?

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2012-05-21 07:11 pm (UTC)(link)
*nods* It is at least strongly implied (if not actually stated) in one of them... um, if it works, this one: To The Future.

Poor Connor - but something is getting through to him! Food/the smells of food is supposed to trigger powerful memories/associations

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2012-05-21 06:11 pm (UTC)(link)
*nods* Connor's managing to think. James' cooking might well be the key ;)

Glad you liked it and thanks for reading.

Yes, Abby's right! Think, Connor! I love Lester cooking, somehow I've always imagined that he's brilliant at it.

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2012-05-21 06:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Abby's definitely right. Lester's cooking might get Connor thinking. Hee, my Lester!muse loves cooking, so glad you liked that bit.

Thanks for reading.

"All the little things that said “I love you”........"

Oh poor Connor......

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2012-05-21 06:14 pm (UTC)(link)
Glad you liked that line.

Maybe, but he's starting to wonder.

Thanks for reading.

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2012-05-21 06:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Poor Connor's getting there. Thanks for reading and for looking at it for me.

[identity profile] nietie.livejournal.com 2012-05-21 01:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Erk! Listen to Abby, Connor.

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2012-05-21 07:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Sorry ;) Don't worry, Connor seems to be listening to her (or starting to *g*). Thanks for reading.

YES! Abby is right, goddamit!! Wake up, Connor!!
Great drabble. I love the way they rile me *veg*

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2012-05-21 07:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Hee, of course Abby is. Connor's starting to wake up.

Thanks. Hee, good to know ;)

[identity profile] tay-21.livejournal.com 2012-05-21 09:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Come on, Connor. You brilliant boy. SNAP OUT OF IT! Put the pieces together. WHy would Abby lie?

*huggles poor confused Connor*

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2012-05-21 09:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Connor's getting there... slowly. I'm sure he'll put all the pieces togethercdepending on the prompts/

*Connor needs to be huggled*

Thanks for reading.

[identity profile] deinonychus-1.livejournal.com 2012-05-22 06:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Somebody needs to rescue him! And rescue Lester! And then they need to get back together! may be ever so slightly over-invested here...

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2012-05-22 07:13 pm (UTC)(link)
Abby and Matt are trying and someone may have rescued Lester. I'm reasonably certain they will get back together (depending on the prompts *vbeg*) possibly ;)

Thanks for reading.

Stupid Connor, really. How can he fall for Philip's act?

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2012-05-23 09:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Poor Connor isn't himself at the moment (Burton's drugged him). Thanks for reading.

[personal profile] samueljames 2012-05-24 10:00 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm glad Lester is starting to question things. Hopefully he'll trust Abby.

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2012-05-25 06:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Thanks, it was time for Connor to question Burton's motives. *nods* He should trust Abby.

Hopefully Connor's starting to come to his senses!

We can hope *nods* Thanks for reading.

Wake up, Connor, for the love of god! *shakes the boy*

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2012-06-24 05:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Connor's trying, he really is. Don't shake him, he's still drugged ;)

Thanks for reading.
