Primeval drabble: Hard At Work

Title: Hard At Work

Author: knitekat

Word Count: 100

Characters: James Lester, Connor Temple

Rating: 12

Disclaimer: Primeval belongs to Impossible Pictures. Certainly not me. Writing for fun and will replace.

A/N: For P100 challenge 201 and my Making An Impression drabble series. Thanks go to Fred for looking over it for me, cheers m'dear.



James groaned, rubbed his eyes and finally shut down his computer. He had been working late on a document for the minister, all Burton's fault, of course.

What he really wanted was to go home and sleep... he glanced at his clock and sighed. There really wasn't much point going anywhere now, he was due back in two hours.

Setting out in search of coffee, James sighed as he left his office. Connor was gently snoring, his head pillowed on the ADD. James detoured for a blanket and tucked it carefully around Connor's slumbering form. The boy worked too hard.

You know this has made me "awww" right? The last line is just perfect. Lester saying that of Connor and not even realising the irony connected to what he has been doing. I can't even put it into words properly. It's just "awwwwwww"

Very glad to hear you liked it. It is typical Lester not to see himself working hard/late as a problem. Thanks for reading and commenting.

Awwwwwwwww, cute!

(Although, coincidentally, my offering for this drabble challenge also features a Connor falling asleep at the ARC - doh! *g*)

Thanks, glad you thought the boys were cute.

Aaaaw, the image of Connor sleeping on the ADD is so adorable... I bet he really has done something like that. And LOL for the last line, Lester is sweet when nodody looks him :-D

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2011-03-12 10:26 pm (UTC)(link)
*nods* I'm sure he has, he is very dedicated. Lester can be sweet when no one is around to notice him.

Hee, glad you liked it.

Lester's far more concerned for others than he is for himself. *blushes*

Well, Lester, you work too hard too. You better get some sleep too.

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2011-03-12 10:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Lester doesn't see it like that, but I'm sure someone can convince him to take more care of himself *g* (depending where the prompts go). Thanks for reading.

[identity profile] deinonychus-1.livejournal.com 2011-03-13 07:43 pm (UTC)(link)
awwwwwww! He does care really, although I'm sure when Connor wakes up Lester will deny it was him.

*nods* Lester does care and he will deny it (no matter what the CTTV says *g*)

Aaaaawww...
But poor Lester needs some care too *pets him*

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2011-05-28 10:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Thanks.
Lester does, doesn't he *nods*

Cuddles Connor, nods in appreciation to Lester.
:)

Connor needs to be cuddled. Lester nods back ;)

Thanks for reading.
