18 Torchwood One Shots

by torchwholockian-potterhead

Originally a challenge to write one for every day in August but kinda failed after day 19 :)8 Some Janto, little bits of Towen, NO GWACK! No Gwen-bashing and only one OC called Nick. Each should be taken on its own accept that 12 follows on from 10. The chapter title is the day I wrote it.

Prompt-Black is not the colour of death but the colour of beauty

Tosh

I always used to associate darkness with negativity; it was the bringer of nightmares and the format of funerals. I am familiar with both of these but nightmares are a much more frequent visitor. Most nights even now I wake up screaming, reliving the months I spent on a cold, hard floor imprisoned before Jack saved me. He isn't the only one who saved me. All those years you didn't know I existed were torture. But like you said, you torture people in happy relationships. I was never in a happy relationship-or any relationship at all. It's not like I'm desirable! Now as I slip into death all I can think of is the moment you agreed to the date that never was. You finally noticed me and now we're both dying! I remember what you said about death, that it was just darkness. Black. So often since that conversation I have thought of how terrible that must be but with you with me, the black can only be beautiful.
