Fic: Legends
Title: Legends
Fandom: Sanctuary
Pairing/Characters: Helen Magnus/James Watson; mentions of Helen/John Druitt and James/John Druitt
Summary: Helen and James- and the changing times.
Rating: PG-13
Length: Short (1,426 words)
Disclaimer: None of these characters belong to me.
Notes/Warnings: This was written for the
older_not_dead promptathon 18 prompt "history class." Also, it's been quite a while since I saw Sanctuary last, and there are parts of the final season I never saw, so bear that in mind. This is set pre-series, but my timeline could be wonky.
Excerpt: Helen enjoyed having dinner with James, of course she did, but when it came to his tastes- in food, in wine, in nearly everything- it was as though no time had passed at all. When he dressed for dinner, it might as well have been 1888 again. Helen didn’t mind dressing for dinner- she enjoyed looking good as much as anyone- but she favored modern styles. She hated to look in the mirror and forget how much time had passed.
