I claimed Charlie and Claire over on 50_darkfics
Title: Suicide Note
Author: Ellin/sapphire_child
Fandom: Lost
Characters: Charlie, Desmond, Claire
Prompt: 99. Writers Choice
Word Count: 515
Rating: PG-13
Genre: angst, darkfic
Spoilers: spoilers for season three – especially the season finale
Summary: written from the POV of Charlie’s Greatest Hits list. The rest is all…well, in the fic.
Disclaimer: By actually soaking a piece of lined paper that I scribbled on in permanent marker in water for close to two hours, I have deduced that there is a possibility that a) Charlie’s Greatest Hits list survived being in Desmond’s pocket and having a lovely long swim b) I am completely insane and need to be committed and c) I do not own Lost.
Author’s Note: this fic actually made me tear up as I was writing it. I got my inspiration from pacejunkie and Johnette Napolitano’s song “Suicide Note” and for that I thank them both. I also uh…wrote this in about two hours flat. My muse pretty much exploded so I apologise if it seems rough at all.
