Primeval drabble: A Good Idea

Title: A Good Idea
Author: knitekat
Word Count: 100
Characters: James Lester, Sarah Page
Rating: 12
Disclaimer: Primeval belongs to Impossible Pictures. Certainly not me. Writing for fun and will replace.
A/N: For the P100 challenge 226: Sarah Page. Part of my Dreams Of Yesterday drabble series. Thanks go to Fred for the beta. Cheers m'dear.


James quirked an eyebrow as he read the file Lorraine had printed out for him and looked critically at the young woman who stood before him.

She was glancing around the ARC with intelligent eyes.

Her file looked adequate for working at the ARC, but first, he wanted answers about why she was working at the museum and telling horror stories to the children about Egyptian burial practices.

But maybe having Dr Page at the ARC might save other children from nightmares.

His son still woke up at night after hearing her stories on his recent visit to the museum.

LOL! Love that ending!

Thanks. When I had this idea, I rewatched part of 3.1 and the kids expressions gave me the ending, so I'm glad you liked that bit. Thanks for reading.

I re-watched the ep as I had an idea for this prompt, and once I saw their expressions, I wrote this ;) Glad you liked it and thanks again for the beta. *hugs*

LOL
Lester saved the next generation from Sarah Paige.
Bad Sarah, scaring little kids with horror stories.

Thanks, glad you liked it.

Lester did ;) After seeing that ep again, I just had to write this.

LOL! So she tormented his kid? Love it!

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2011-09-03 08:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Hee, she did ;) You might, but James is not impressed ;) Thanks for reading.

Ahaha love that Lester's already heard of her before now lol

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2011-09-03 08:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Once I rewatched and saw the expressions on the kids' faces, he just had to know about her ;) Glad you liked it.

LOL Lester is such a softy:) Saving the children of England from big bad Sarah *giggle*

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2011-09-03 08:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Shh, Lester doesn't want that rumour spread around ;) He wouldn't want any other kids to have nightmares. Glad you liked it.

[identity profile] reggietate.livejournal.com 2011-09-03 11:33 am (UTC)(link)
Hee! Neat idea there, Lester :-)

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2011-09-03 08:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Glad you liked it and Lester has great ideas ;) I couldn't resist after I rewatched the ep.

Hee - love the twist with his son. Naughty Sarah!

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2011-09-03 08:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Thanks. I needed a link to the rest of the series and after seeing the kids' expressions in the ep, his poor son had to suffer ;) Naughty Sarah indeed. Glad you liked it and thanks for reading.

Hee! I'm always surprised that the kids look so grossed-out by Sarah's stories in that ep - I thought children loved that kind of thing! *g*

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2011-09-03 08:53 pm (UTC)(link)
They did look suitably grossed-out, didn't they. *nods* Kids are supposed to love being scared, but I doubt that would stop them having nightmares.

LOL Great drabble, especially the bit about Lester's son. The story telling at the the childeren in the museum was such a great introduction of Sarah's character.

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2011-09-03 08:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Thanks, glad you liked it. It was a nice introduction and I couldn't resist using it in the drabble.

LOL!! Sounds so like Lester!

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2011-09-04 03:49 pm (UTC)(link)
Thanks, Lester's a softie at heart ;)

Hee! Very neatly done!

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2011-09-04 03:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Thanks, glad you liked it. Once I saw the expression on the kids' faces in the ep, it allowed me to tie it into this series.

[identity profile] deinonychus-1.livejournal.com 2011-09-04 07:15 pm (UTC)(link)
lol! Maybe her stories needed to be less graphic...

[identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com 2011-09-05 07:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Hee, those kids did look grossed out ;) But it was perfect for the drabble. Thanks for reading.
