Primeval drabble: Improvisation

Title: Improvisation
Author: knitekat
Word Count: 100
Characters: Matt Anderson
Rating: 12
Disclaimer: Primeval belongs to Impossible Pictures. Certainly not me. Writing for fun and will replace.
A/N: For the P100 challenge 304: Make Do And Mend. Part of my Making An Impression drabble series and follows As If The Situation Wasn't Bad Enough Already. Thanks go to the ever wonderful Fred for casting her eye over it for me, cheers m'dear.



When a second scream came from the operating theatre, Matt turned and pelted back down the corridor towards it. He cursed the fact he'd left his EMD in the car, even though he could hardly have brought it into the hospital. He also cursed his colleagues for rushing off heedlessly into danger, especially James, who would normally rip someone a new one for such a reckless action.

Matt tried to spot anything he could use as a weapon and he grinned slightly when he spotted a fire extinguisher. Not the best option but certainly better than anything else he'd seen.

Matt armed with any weapon is a sight for lustful eyes like mine

Nice one!

Fire extinguishers can be very versatile! Go, Matty *G*

Oh, now, I don't know. It seems to me that fire extinguishers have been used with good results on Primeval. lol Good choice, Matt. Oh, and I'm gonna forgive Lester cuz I'm pretty sure he's in the operating room to protect Connor. You iz very good, Darlin'

Good to know you liked an armed Matt.

Thanks for reading.

Thanks, glad you liked it.

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2013-03-02 03:14 pm (UTC)(link)
Matt will.

Thanks for reading.

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2013-03-02 03:16 pm (UTC)(link)
They can be, Matt certainly hopes it will be suitable against whatever he's about to face ;)

Thanks for reading.

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2013-03-02 03:18 pm (UTC)(link)
True, they have and Matt hopes he'll have as much luck with his. *nods* I would think Lester is.

Glad you liked it and thanks for reading.

Matt appreciates the support.

Thanks for reading.

Thanks, Matt appreciated the support.

Thanks for reading.

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2013-03-02 03:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Matt will, and indeed, is going.

Thanks for reading.

[identity profile] eriah211.livejournal.com 2013-03-02 04:56 pm (UTC)(link)
They are worried, Matt, you can't be angry at them for rushing into danger like that. A fire extinguisher? That can be good! ^_^
fififolle: (Primeval - Connor  Yes! *squee!*)

[personal profile] fififolle 2013-03-02 06:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Yep! That'll do!! *g*

[identity profile] deinonychus-1.livejournal.com 2013-03-02 07:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Quick thinking, Matt!

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2013-03-02 09:27 pm (UTC)(link)
I think Matt can, running into danger isn't sensible. Can you imagine James' reaction if someone else did that ;)

*nods* Matt is hoping the fire extinguisher is good.

Thanks for reading.

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2013-03-02 09:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Matt hopes so.

Thanks for reading.

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2013-03-02 09:29 pm (UTC)(link)
That's why he's team leader.

Thanks for reading.

Yay Matt! You rock!!

Great choice!!

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2013-03-03 06:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Matt is hoping it is, although he'd prefer his EMD.

Thankd for reading.

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2013-03-03 06:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Matt agrees totally ;)

Thanks for reading.

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2013-03-03 06:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Matt certainly hopes so.

Thanks again for looking it over for me and for reading.

Terrific!!

He's taking a page out of Danny's book, looks like! I love the bit about James, who as Matt says, I'm sure is the first person to yell about recklessness and might be doing it himself anyway! Though I suspect it still wouldn't make him stop yelling in future. *g*

[identity profile] dreamer-98.livejournal.com 2013-03-04 04:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Good thinking on your feet, Matt. Nice one!

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2013-03-04 08:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Thanks, glad you liked it.

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2013-03-04 08:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Hee, Matt is, isn't he. Glad you liked the James' bit, and of course he'll yell at someone for doing what he's just done.

Glad you liked it and thanks for reading.

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2013-03-04 08:33 pm (UTC)(link)
*nods* Matt is very good at thinking on his feet, being in the future taught him that.

Glad you liked it and thanks for reading.

[identity profile] natchris.livejournal.com 2013-03-04 10:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Well done!

[identity profile] 47eleven.livejournal.com 2013-03-05 01:42 am (UTC)(link)
I have complete faith in Matt. :)

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2013-03-05 08:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Thanks, glad you liked it.

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2013-03-05 08:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Matt hopes he lives up to your faith. He also says lovely icon.

Thanks for reading.

[identity profile] ebonyfeather.livejournal.com 2013-03-11 08:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Go Matt!

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2013-03-11 09:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Matt definitely is.

Thanks for reading.

[personal profile] samueljames 2014-03-03 09:23 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm glad he found something he could use. It's no EMD but Matt might be grateful for it. I liked his observations about James rushing into danger.

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2014-03-03 10:02 pm (UTC)(link)
Matt's good at improvising.

But it is true, James would be furious with anyone else doing it.

Thanks for reading. Are you having a marathon reading session?

[personal profile] samueljames 2014-03-03 10:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Almost caught up, thought I'd better while I could get into LJ.

In one way it's good because I can now read one at a time but at least this way I didn't have to wait after the cliffhangers :)

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2014-03-03 10:40 pm (UTC)(link)
My fingers are getting tired ;)

True, no cliffhangers until you catch up.

[personal profile] samueljames 2014-03-03 10:44 pm (UTC)(link)
Sorry about the fingers. No need to reply to every comment but I'm almost there *g*

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2014-03-03 11:18 pm (UTC)(link)
I noticed. On the final stretch... and then it is back to cliffhangers for you ;)

[personal profile] samueljames 2014-03-03 11:19 pm (UTC)(link)
And we know how you love those *g*

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2014-03-03 11:36 pm (UTC)(link)
