Three AU Vignettes [Jack, Juliet, Charlotte, Miles]

[squeakyboots]

I've begun a series of vignettes set in an AU in which Jack jumps from the helicopter at the end of season four. Eventually, I'll be moving into Jack/Juliet and Charlotte/Daniel territory, but for now, there are no pairings.

Title: Hangover
Characters: Jack, Juliet
Pairing: Jack/Juliet, but only if you squint.
Rating: PG
Spoilers: Season 5 AU
A/N:.Juliet and Christian have something in common.
(“What’s the matter?” he finds himself asking, forgetting all the obvious questions like “What happened?” and “How did I get here?”)

Title: This Place
Characters: Jack, Charlotte, Juliet, Daniel, Miles (Locke mentioned)
Pairing: Jack/Juliet and Charlotte/Daniel but only if you squint.
Rating: PG
Spoilers: Season 5 AU
A/N:. Jack is left behind; Charlotte lives.
(But Juliet gives him a look, almost preemptively, like she knows exactly what he’s thinking, and Jack throws up his hands and moves to the back of the line to check on Charlotte, who is trailing behind now, like a planet falling slowly out of orbit.)

Title: Last Words
Characters: Miles, Jack
Pairing: None
Rating: PG
Spoilers: Season 5 AU
A/N:. Jack asks Miles for help.
( “If I give you this-you can tell me-the last thing he was thinking?” )
