A/N: For the P100 challenge 283: For Sale. Part of my Making An Impression drabble series and follows I Have A Bad Feeling About This. Thanks go to Fred for the beta, cheers m'dear.

Connor gazed at New Dawn as Philip explained everything – although Connor doubted it really was everything – and felt awed by the sheer scale of Philip's plan.

Then Connor caught the smug self-satisfied look on Philip's face and remembered what Philip had done to him and James. It was sobering to realise that, only a few short months ago, he'd have fallen for Philip's spiel, selling himself for the chance to be part of it.

But not now.

Connor's heart was no longer for sale, certainly not for the pretty baubles Philip was offering him. He’d already given it to another.

No matter how hard he may try, Philip cannot buy Connor's love or attention. Nice job.

Yay for Connor. I can see him still being a awed by the Project, even if he's not buying into it.
