[April 21] [Original] New Blood
Title: New Blood
Day/Theme: April 21, 2011 "by way of inbreeding"
Series: Original
Character/Pairing: John
Rating: PG
The same old ideas mixed and cross-polineated in his mind. Maybe it was a sign that he was getting too old. They were all the same old thoughts. He couldn't think of anything interesting as often as he once had. John supposed the only thing he had to be thankful for at this juncture was that there was always the opportunity to move on and find something or someone else that would excite him again.
He could travel to a new city, he could talk to new people, but the only way to really get his synapses sparking and his heart pounding was to find someone who could be eliminated from his organization and replaced. And who was the least likely to further his goal of newness and originality? Whoever had been with him longest.
All the same people playing all the same games. John smiled to himself as he dreamed of doing things differently for a change. Maybe not even one alteration in the scheme of things- maybe two or three. He saw no way his organization could not be improved by an infusion of fresh blood.
