Primeval: Collection of Drabbles
New old fandom =D I didn't much like Primeval the first time I saw it. Then I went back some months ago, and now I'm hooked... *sigh* From there, it was just a matter of time until the bunnies came knocking on my door. The ones below are up for adoption, btw, if you'll leave me a link to the finished piece. My muse doesn't cooperate at the moment (although I withold the right to come back to them at some later point).
Title: Back to the Beginning
Author: Desiree
Rating: PG
Characters: Connor
Disclaimer: All characters belong to their various creators (who aren't me, sadly)
A/N: Set vaguely after the S3 finale.
There's just enough energy left to open one more anomaly. Connor deliberates - not long, he doesn't have time to dally - which way to go. He only has four destinations from which to choose. There's one he keeps coming back to.
Cutter has always insisted on not changing the past. But Connor has lost everyone to these anomalies; he can't help thinking: it's time they paid him back. Time to go back to where it started to go so wrong and put it right.
Stephen, at twenty-one, is everything Connor never imagined him to be: shy, impressionable and lonely.
Title: Internet Acquaintances
Author: Desiree
Rating: PG
Characters: Connor, (Rick Earnhardt)
Disclaimer: All characters belong to their various creators (who aren't me, sadly)
Warning: Crossover
A/N: I couldn't help myself. I just watched Phoenix Blue for the first time, and I just couldn't help myself. (For those that don't already know: James Murray plays Stephen in Primeval and Rick Earnhardt aka Phoenix Blue in Phoenix Blue). Set vaguely early S3.
Connor, bored stupid, logs in on an online forum to explain to outOfTheAshes24 the basics of covering one's tracks on the internet. He doesn't think anything of it.
Two years later, Ash is as brilliant a hacker as Connor, and - and Connor appreciates it's pathetic - one of his best friends. They don't chat about private stuff; there's not much he actually knows about Ash (he free dives). But they argue about computers and Star Wars versus Star Trek, and that's worth a lot.
Cutter, back from another anomaly, mentions someone called Stephen, and it's like Claudia Brown again.
Title: Lost in Time
Author: Desiree
Rating: PG13
Characters: Helen, (Stephen)
Disclaimer: All characters belong to their various creators (who aren't me, sadly)
Warning: There is one, sort of, but I'm afraid it would give the game away.
A/N: For the record: I don't like soap operas - like, at all. Even if no one will believe me after this. In my head, this is set after 2.07, but there's no reference.
She never told them this, but the first thing she noticed about Stephen were his eyes. The same shade of blue as Nick's.
She hadn't understood, then, the spark of possessiveness that shot through her every time she saw her young student. She still didn't understand when she came back.
She never told them this, but when she disappeared she had been eight weeks pregnant. She wasn't suited to be a mother. Three years later, an anomaly opened back into civilization. She left the little boy there without looking back.
It took her entirely too long to make the connection.
