A/N: For the P100 challenge 345: Tidings of Comfort and Joy. Part of my Making An Impression drabble series. Thanks go to Fred for casting her eye over this for me.


Burton strolled into the New Dawn control centre. “April? Are we ready?”

April looked up from her checklist. “Yes, Philip. We are ready for the test run.”

Burton quickly ran own checks. “Excellent. Start the count down for initialisation.”

Burton almost held his breath, even though he knew it wouldn't work at 100% until Convergence, this test was important. If it didn't work now...

His gaze was fixed on the readout, the figures slowly inching upwards until they reached the required level for a successful test. “Excellent work.” Burton smiled, soon he would share his good news with the world.

Uh oh.

Well... Philip thinks it is good news ;)

Thanks for reading.

Good use of the prompt! What's Lester going to counter it with??

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

Good to know it worked. I'm sure Lester has plans and Burton won't be announcing anything until Convergence ;)

Thanks for reading.

Eek! Are they going to be tidings of comfort and joy? I doubt it.

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

Eek would be right. Philip thinks they will be.

Thanks for reading.

Or, you know, not!

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

Burton does not understand your negativity ;)

Thanks for reading.

[dreamer-98.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I don't think anyone will be too thrilled with Burton's "good news." Nice!

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

True, but Burton thinks they're just jealous ;)

Glad you liked it and thanks for reading.

Hee, see I knew someone would be happy about something! *g*

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

Yep, as I said though, not everyone will be ;)

Thanks for reading.

Uh oh. That's not good...

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

No, it isn't, but Philip still thinks he's doing good.

Thanks for reading.

[stealingpennies.livejournal.com]

Oh nicely ironic - 'his good news with the world'.
Things are hotting up.

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

*nods* Philip never knew it would all go horribly wrong.

Thanks, hopefully.

[eriah211.livejournal.com]

Oh, no! I don't think it's good news at all.

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

Burton looks shocked at your lack of faith in him ;)

Thanks for reading.

I think we all want to wipe that smug look off his face.

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

I think the boys will enjoy doing so.

Thanks for reading.
