Fandom: Homeland
Character: Claire Danes, mention of Nicholas Brody
Rating: PG13
Words: 200
Author's note: This drabble takes place during the first episodes of season one, no further spoiler
Only for a split of a second Claire allowed herself to turn her eyes away. Sometimes the horror Brody had to go through since he was home again was hard to endure. Most of the day he put on a mask for the media. Played the hero, an idol for every young soldier. Missed for over eight years, tormented and isolated by his kidnappers. His homecoming had been unexpected. But no one seemed to put his integrity into question.
No one but her. What, if she was right, if he finally was broken down under the pressure, had turned into a terrorist, working for the al-Qaida? What if there was only one reason why he was back now? The ultimate terror attack in America!
Claire turned her eyes back to the screens in front of her. Brody had left the bedroom; his wife was still sitting on the bed, looking lost. He was cowering in the corner of the kitchen now, talking to himself, while his body was shaking visible. She noticed the scars on his chest, which would always to remind him of the tragedy of his life.
A sight which almost made Claire feel sorry for him. Almost.
