Burton smiled, once the minister heard about Lester's invasion of New Dawn... but first he needed to show Lester just how wrong he was. Once Convergence started, once New Dawn initialised and saved the world from the anomalies and harnessed them to provide unlimited power...

An alarm sounded and Burton checked the readings. “No!” He spun towards Lester. “What have you done!”

Lester brushed imaginary lint from his sleeve before fixing Burton with a disdainful look. “Is something wrong, Philip?”

Burton stared at the readings. “This wasn't supposed to happen.”

Lester sighed. “I did tell you not to trust Helen.”

I can practically hear Lester's tone in that last sentence.

Heh. Love James' response.
So perfectly 'Lester' in both tone and wording.

The imaginary lint. So Lester.

Lester: 1 - Burton: 0

Lester was pleased with that bit, but he remarks that he's scored far more points than that ;)

Thanks for reading.

LOL and yay *offers Phillip a lollipop to suck on and a gold star for James*

James is quite happy with his gold star, Phillip isn't as impressed by the lollipop ;)

Glad you liked it and thanks for reading.

Burton's not so smug now. Go Lester!

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2014-04-14 07:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Burton certainly isn't. Definitely go Lester!

Thanks for reading.

Now you've made me feel sorry for Philip. However, he has behaved horribly towards Connor and Lester.

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2014-04-16 07:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Don't feel sorry for Philip, it is his own fault.

Thanks for reading.

Serves Burton right!

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2014-04-16 07:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Lester would agree apart from the whole end of the world thing ;)

Thanks for reading.

It never ends well for Burton, does it?

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2014-04-26 04:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Not really, but he still has time to make a difference.

Thanks for reading.

Pride comes before the crap hitting the fan for Philip.

Of course.

Thanks for reading.
