Drabble: Mr. Doe’s Wish

Prompt: Mr. Doe’s Wish
Character: Mr. Doe, Arthur Doe
Wordcount: 100
Imagecount: 0
Warnings: none

This is a little preview of the next chapter, which focuses mostly on Jayne and Stella. It will also include a little more of Mr. Doe, and will introduce Jayne's little brother, Arthur, who will be just transitioning to a toddler (but it probably won't be shown in the update - I think it's already happened in-game). So if you're interested in this seldom-seen tertiary character, you might want to check it out.




He often wished he'd never let the old alien in through his front door.

That was when it had still been his choice to make. After that moment, he no longer had the right to make decisions for Jayne. It was her life and her choice. He wouldn't deny her that, even if he could.

That didn't mean he had to like it.

He stood above the crib, and watched his son calmly sleeping. For now, none of this concerned Arthur.

For now.

He wished it could remain that way, but he knew that his son’s day would also come.

Oh, I totally forgot Mr. Doe was pregnant of him... His name reminds me of King Arthur. I can't wait for the next update, I love Stella and her weirdness.

Oh, PT. Why did you do all of this?

Poor Mr. Doe. I do like getting these glimpses at the other characters though.

YES! Not only some PT action but Jayne and Stella?!

I'm as happy as pig in shit.

Perhaps Mr.Doe means to say his back door. /bad pun

I am a bit torn because I know how important the alien cause is but I don't want Johnny to leave poor Ripp and Phi.

Awwww. I was hoping for some pictures. I hope Arthur has a happy childhood.
