Solace ('Infinity' entry)

[scripsi.livejournal.com]

Title: Solace
Rating: PG-13
Genre: Darkfic
Word Count: 2110
Characters: The Master (Ainley), Nyssa of Traken
Warnings: Mindgames
Summary: Night after night Nyssa dreamt about her father.

AN: This started out much different from how it ended. Usually I have a very clear idea of how a fic should start and end, but this story has twisted around itself several times. It was also very hard to write. I always felt that the Master and Nyssa must have a very odd connection, though it was hardly touched in the series. I have written a bit more about that here. So this fic is about that, and it’s also a story about loss and grief. I’m not sure if it is very good at all, but I needed to write it.

Read it here.

Oh, gosh, I'm so sorry to hear that. :-( I totally get where you're coming from; this year it'll be ten years since my Grandpa died, and his birthday would be near the end of this month. And I think I would absolutely do the same thing for just one more moment, however brief, however unreal.

Birthdays makes you remember, don't they? I can never remember the dates my grandparent's died, but I always remember their birthdays. :) *hugs*
