Primeval drabble: All For The Greater Good

Title: All For The Greater Good
Author: knitekat
Word Count: 100
Characters: James Lester
Rating: 12
Disclaimer: Primeval belongs to Impossible Pictures. Certainly not me. Writing for fun and will replace.
A/N: For the P100 challenge 373: Black and White and my Primeval Bingo Card (round 3) prompt: Enemy. Thanks go to Fred for looking it over for me.


Lester knew how most members of his team viewed him and he really didn't care. His job was to protect the public, even from themselves, and if that meant lying to them... well, he'd do it without regret. It didn't make him the enemy, even if Cutter had cast him in the role of the villain.

He snorted. Did Cutter and his ragtag band really believe anything in government was black and white? Rules were always being broken and manipulated and he'd lost count of the number of strange bedfellows he'd made over the years.

All for the greater good.

Very nice, and very true. Sometimes Lester has to deal with some nasty people in order to get the job done.

Nothing is black or white and Lester does know it perfectly.

Definitely, James is skilled in navigating the murky world of politics and the civil service.

Spot on! Yup, Cutter does really believe everything is black and white.
