Author: knitekat
Word Count: 100
Characters: James Lester, Helen Cutter, Clone
Rating: 12
Disclaimer: Primeval belongs to Impossible Pictures. Certainly not me. Writing for fun and will replace.
A/N: For the P100 challenge 331: Magnetic. Part 20 of my Strange Bedfellows drabble series and continues from Just Didn't Understand. Thanks go to Fred for looking at this for me, cheers m'dear.


He'd been sent to bring the man to Her again, and now stood in the shadows, watching him with interest.

How could he ignore the need to please Her? To do as She commanded? A need that even now drew him to Her, waiting Her instructions and helpless to resist Her call. Every time he tried to pull away, he was dragged back towards her...

He frowned slightly, just like those blocks he'd found. The ones that usually moved together but sometimes shot apart.

Maybe the man could show him how he did that... maybe, he could do it too.

Oh, wow, brilliant use of the prompt. Such a great look at the inner struggles of the clone.

Defective clone in Aisle 4! *G*

I love how the clone is gradually doubting Helen and getting his free will back.

Ooooh! Interesting, the clone is having thoughts of independence.

Shh, don't let Helen know.

Glad you liked the clone beginning to wonder.

Thanks for reading.

Great use of the prompt. Hopefully the clone can fight the pull he feels to Helen and break away.

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2013-09-10 07:17 pm (UTC)(link)
The clone is happy, he thinks ;) I hope he does too.

Glad you liked it and thanks for reading. Um, next prompt?

*bows* I did wibble about the prompt so good to know it worked.

Thanks for reading.

I like the growing self-awareness of the clone. It'll be interesting to see how he develops.

The clone is happy writing himself, so good to know you like him. That depends on the prompts ;)

Thanks for reading.
