Primeval drabble: Resolution

Disclaimer: Primeval belongs to Impossible Pictures. Certainly not me. Writing for fun and will replace.
A/N: For the P100 challenge 294: Christmas Carol. Part of my Making An Impression drabble series and continues from Thoughts On Christmas. Thanks to Fred for looking at it for me, *hugs*


James felt like bloody Scrooge for ruining Connor's Christmas and could easily imagine his lover's devastated face when he woke up alone on Christmas morning. But the thought of the terror on his face if Burton got his hands on him haunted James' dreams.

He found himself pacing agitatedly across the room, weighing the pros and cons of continuing his absence or going to Connor and ending his misery. He sighed, no matter how much he believe what he was doing was right, James just couldn't stand the pain he was causing Connor.

James knew what he had to do.

What!? What's he going to do?!

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2012-12-25 09:32 pm (UTC)(link)
To some extent, it does depend on the next prompt ;)

Thanks for reading.

Oh no! I can understand why he wouldn't want to end Connor's suffering, but I'm afraid of the possible consequences.

Sorry, James is concerned about what Burton would do... possible consequences? What possible consequences? *vbeg*

Thanks for reading.

That sounds hopeful! The way he is so torn over what to do is very believable.

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2012-12-26 09:03 pm (UTC)(link)
James hopes so. Good to know him being torn worked.

Thanks for reading.

Grrr! He'd better have a bloody good plan to make it worth it for Connor after all this.

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2013-01-03 08:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Sorry, James is hoping he's made the correct decision.

Thanks for reading.

Yes, do it! Go to Connor! *cheers*

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2013-01-07 08:40 pm (UTC)(link)
James has decided to do something, whether it involves Connor is another question ;)

Thanks for reading.

Can understand his desire to want to both be with Connor and yet keep him safe.

Good to know it worked, poor James was so torn.

Thanks for reading.
