Thanks for this! The idea of the "empty" feeling that lingers on in Richard and Sharron when they think Craig's done for is intriguing and very well done. Makes you wonder what will happen when one of them finally does die. Are they going to be left with a sort of "phantom limb" phenomenon for the rest of their days? And what does that mean for the last one left behind? It doesn't bear thinking about!
Nice to see another fill for this prompt, too. The world can always use more Champions fic!
There's some precedence for the emptiness - in the Australian outback episode, Richard 'dies' from his snakebite, and they feel his loss heavily then (prior to Sharron's telepathic heart massage - she's a handy woman to have around is Sharron!).
And yes, there should be more Champions fic. It's one of those shows that I'm quite sure everybody would like if they'd only watch it!
I remember the Australian outback episode, but I'm long overdue for a rewatch and have forgotten about the emptiness. I award you bonus canon credits in any case!
"The Champions" is hugely fun, and definitely deserves more love/viewers. It's unquestionably one of my favourite ITC series. I should mention that I read all those episode recaps that you did a few years back, and thought they were hilarious. I salute you for all that screencapping/captioning--I loved it but it must have taken you forever!
There's a Champions community here on LJ if you're interested in that sort of thing. It's been a bit slow of late, mind: http://champions-fans.livejournal.com/. Needs some revitalising I guess!
I think the community was actually where I found the recaps, though I didn't have an LJ at the time! I'll bear it in mind for when I get to that rewatch. (So much TV, so little time.)
Maybe! It'd be fun to get stuck in with Craig, Richard, and Sharron again. I see from your LJ that you're also watching "Remington Steele", which makes me think I'm due a rewatch for that as well. I may have to start planning my viewing schedule a year or two in advance at this rate. ;-)
