A/N: Angst. Thanks go to Luka for looking at this for me.

James collapsed into his armchair, tears threatening to spill down his face as his façade finally cracked.

He suppressed a sob.

It hurt so much.

He couldn't imagine his life without her. Coming home after a day saving the world, James knew he'd miss her support as they shared a meal and an evening together. He wasn't sure how he'd survive without her comforting arms around him as he drifted asleep.

Finally his tears flowed as he remembered holding her close. Having to say goodbye as she slipped from this cruel world was the hardest thing he had ever done.

Eek! *Snivels in laydee-like manner*

Poor James . . .

Are you on an angst roll this week, or something? *g*

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

Oops *passes another tissue to the laydee-like snivelling Luka*

It was James' turn (again).

Quite possibly - although I blame the prompt (and the cold). Thanks again for looking over it.

Ergh! Oh James.... *snivels in a very un-ladeelike manner*

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

I'm afraid I couldn't resist hurting poor James. *passes tissue to the un-ladeelike snivelling birdie* Thanks for reading.

[canadian-jay.livejournal.com]

I know exactly what you mean. *g*

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

You and me both *g* (how are the 50 sentences fics going?)

[canadian-jay.livejournal.com]

Oooh, you pest. *g* They're not going at all, actually. I have done very little fic writing over the past month. (Although I have got stuff written on a fic which will introduce us to Min - not the first date one, but adult!Min plus anomalies.)

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

Pest? Moi? I'm sure I haven't asked in months *g* Little writing over the last month? *feeds the birdie's bunnies* (ohh, Min and anomalies together sounds like Lester's worst nightmare and rather good).

[canadian-jay.livejournal.com]

Doesn't change the fact that you're a pest. xP Maybe stuff will get written during PriWriMo. And haha! The bunnies don't need help - its purely a matter of lack of time and/or energy. (Hee! I think he's cackling inside, actually. But writing Min is quite fun.)

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

*pouts* In that case, pokes for fic. I know the feeling, I've energy problems the last few weeks. (yay for Min)

[canadian-jay.livejournal.com]

Hee! Well, I'm doing PriWriMo, so there'll be fic(lets/drabbles). Yeah, I've just been... between schoolwork and - egad! - actual socializing!

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

I might be too, although I have RL things to write for too. Your reasons for lack of energy sound more interesting (and preferable) than mind - colds (urgh)

[canadian-jay.livejournal.com]

Lol, possibly!

[casy-dee.livejournal.com]

Oh. Sad! Lovely and heartfelt.

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

Thanks, I'm afraid the prompt demanded angst again. Glad you liked it and thanks for reading.

*whimper* Ouch...

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

Sorry, it just had to be written (and I iz being mean to James again).

[fififolle]

Bloody hell! What have you done!! Have you killed a girl? LOL *eep*

*neverreadthisneverreadthisneverreadthis*

Brilliant!

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

*snorts* Um, yes. I'm afraid I have (James' wife to be exact).

Thanks.

[fredbassett]

Eeek!

Poor James!!

(Is it really bad of me that for a moment I had a horrible feeling that his pet cat had died or something, and that would have upset me even more!!)

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

*pets Fred* I know, I iz being mean to James again.

(What! Kill a pet cat? Me? Mine would probably never forgive me)

[nietie.livejournal.com]

Meep! It seems poor James found and lost happiness.

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

He did, *pets poor James*. Thanks for reading.

[reggietate.livejournal.com]

Eeep! Poor Lester :-(

Very angsty :-)

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

Thanks for reading. I was mean to Lester again.

I blame the prompt (nods *g*)

[talliw.livejournal.com]

*snivels*
You seem to be on an angst trip.

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

*pets and hugs talli*

Um, looks at drabbles *nods* (I blame the prompt *g*)

[deinonychus-1.livejournal.com]

waah! Poor Lester.

You really are beating everyone with the angst stick this week, aren't you?

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

I know, I iz mean to Lester once more.

Um, yes? It's the prompt, I tell you, the prompt *g*

[bigtitch.livejournal.com]

Oh no! Poor Lester.

[knitekat.livejournal.com]
