Disclaimer: Primeval belongs to Impossible Pictures. Certainly not me. Writing for fun and will replace.
A/N: For P100 prompt 904 – Bored. Thanks go to Fred for looking it over for me. I might use it as a basis of a Halloween fic (if I can figure it out).
Warnings: My Halloween muse came out to play – Dark, Horror, Dark! Gore.



“What exactly is so important you can’t see me in my office?”

"This."

"I'm at somewhat of a loss why you're showing me..."

"That's not a gunshot wound, James."

"It looks like one to me."

"It does? Ho... I’ve got the autopsy results. It almost Trepanating except..."

"Except?"

"Whatever did it bored out from the inside."

"That doesn't sound healthy."

"It didn't kill him... whatever it was, it ate his brain."

"It ate? What do you mean whatever it was? You think it came through an anomaly?"

“I don’t know any extant creature that does that, so yes.”

“Find it.”

OMG! \\0//

Definitely grim, my muse went dark!

*bows* It demanded to be written before I could do the other drabble, so glad you liked it.

Thanks for reading.

Yep, it was yuk (one reason I sent it to you, in case it was too yuk).

Good to know it is scary... now to see if I can catch that dark muse again and turn this into a Halloween fic.

Thanks for reading.

Oh yikes, that's not good news! Although I would happily read a longer fic based on this... *g*

Definitely not what Lester wanted to hear.

Thanks... although I think Lester would prefer it if the muse doesn't return ;)

Thanks for reading.
