Title: A Point Not Far Off
Fandom: Manchild
Character: James
Word Count: 100
Rating: Suitable for all
Notes: I'm not sure who James is talking to. It could be the wall for all I know. :P



"My kids are, well, horrible to be perfectly honest with you. They’re vindictive, cold, and I know they hate me. But I’m their father, worst luck, so I go on adoring them, trying to get on with their mother.
Which is useless because, well you’ve seen her: she’s a cow.
Anyway, the point is: my children hate me. And they bleed me dry. Excessively. I mean, non-stop.
Money, money, money at every opportunity.
And Terry says there’s a point of forgiveness not far off; a point where they’ll stop taking my cash for pleasure.
And start taking it for gain."

Oh, very creative use of the prompt. I haven't seen many episodes of "Manchild", but that sounds very much like the James I remember. Excellent! :)

I'm behind on the commenting. Loved this. *pets James* I have this need to watch his "Daddy Cool" scene from series 1 now. *pouts because she's never seen series 2*

*points to icon*
I made it finally :D

And you've put Daddy Cool in my head now :) That's just the perfect song for James, especially with his pipe and all.

(I'm behind, too. *facepalm* *hugs*)

You make me really wish I could see the show! Very curious about James, now...

Did start to wonder where everyone was :P
No worries though, *hugs*
And you must see Manchild when you get the chance, if only for the sauna scenes ;D
