OH MY GOD I LOVE FANDOM. THIS IS PERFECT.

HIS CRUSHED LITTLE FAAAAAACE.

I know! The poor boy, and after all he did for Robbie, chasing around former Yugoslavia and dealing with Serbo-Croatian-speaking police! He even cut his holiday short so he could rush back and make sure Robbie wasn't too lonely. And this is the thanks he gets!

*hugs James*

I looooove the portentous feel of the title of this angst-drabble!

And I've been loving imagining how happy Laurence Fox was to act this scene.

Thank you! It will be interesting to see where they go from here - but, yes, LF did an excellent job with the expression on James's face. And there's no way it's just his interpretation; not the way the camera lingered.

The title - yes, isn't it? ;)

Oh God - you just broke my heart all over again. Thank you.

[Edited 'cos it occurred to me that my original comment might have looked very sarcastic - damn the internet for not being able to show facial expressions - I mean the "thank you" - lovely drabble, even though it hurts!]

[wendymr]

Thank you! And I did understand your meaning, no problem!

I don't often write pure hurt with no comfort, but this image just called out for it.

Poor James, there was no mistaking that display.
Lovely drabble.

Wasn't it all so clear on his face?

Thank you.

You cunning devil. This is ace.

Thank you very much! All inspired by LF's acting/James's face.
