Oh, what the heck!

I guess we'll find out if brevity really is the soul of wit...

1) Give me a fandom (Sanctuary is probably your best bet, but I'm willing to throw it completely open) plus character/pairing, and FIVE one-word prompts
2) I'll see if I can write you five one-sentence ficlets based on them

At least I managed to hold off almost fifteen minutes.

I'm totally cheating with yours!

1. John leaves him alone in the dark, in the of the woods. It doesn't matter. He wouldn't have recognized the countryside in daylight either.

2. Her voice, her hands, her concern...if not for her determination, he might have found some peace.

3. He lays the corkscrew on the tray next to the bottle, and sets two glasses on either side. It's not so pretentious as decanting port, but there's no reason to do it lightly either.

4. Any sensible woman would have worn black. This woman, this woman he needs to know.

5. Nikola throws the switch and James's chest heaves. He breathes a sigh of relief, but his smile dies when he sees the expression on Nigel's face. "Not even for you," it says, and Nikola knows better than to count it as a loss.

Why is that cheating?

1. *cries*

2. You are almost making me wish that Nikola had died. How do you do this?!?

3. HEE!

4. HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! (I still haven't understood which colour she was wearing.) I love that he wants to know her because she is crazy bold.

5. THEY BREAK MY HEART AND I LOVE THEM.

I managed one sentence for everyone else, but then it was KILLING ME, so I stopped. ;)

Glad you liked!

2. I have to echo what shadadukal wrote: this ALMOST makes me wish Nikola had died. Unbelievable.
