A/N: For P100 prompt 514: "Ouch!". Also for 52 weeks of Primeval. Thanks go to Fred for casting her eye over this for me.


The absence of guards had Nick racing into the ARC, fear of what he might find growing with each blood splatter. His steps faltered when he found the mammoth tossing its head, a future predator dangling from a tusk. His gaze darted around the atrium until he found Lester, bloodied, battered but alive. “Are you OK?”

“Perfectly fine,” Lester replied, straightening his cuffs.

“Really?” Nick asked. He grasped a shoulder beneath the torn suit, feeling the faint tremors under his hand, hearing the hiss of pain as Lester pulled free. “James, please.”

Lester sighed before nodding. “Maybe not perfectly fine.”

Oh, I don't know - I think that surviving a Future Predator attack can qualify as perfectly fine!

True, but Nick's more concerned with Lester's injuries.

Thanks for reading.

Glad you liked it.

James has to be stubborn, but I'm sure Nick will convince him he needs (some) help.

Thanks for reading.

Poor worried Nick!

And poor injured Lester, of course.

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

Nick has to be worried.

Lester is glad you've remembered he is injured.

Thanks for reading.

Man up, Lester, and admit you're hurt.

Nice

Lester mutters that he did ;) Reluctantly but he did.

Glad you liked it and thanks for reading.

It takes a lot to wring an admission like that from Lester!

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

It does, but I think he didn't have much of a choice, what with the blood and all.

Thanks for reading and for looking it over for me.
