Beginning Notes: I am not very happy with this drabble. It took me ages to think of anything for this word, and I just wasn't very happy with what I eventually managed to write. I also spent a day and a half thinking about improving/rewriting this drabble which now means I am behind and don't have tomorrow's drabble written up yet.
I Love Janto I wish to apologise for not approving your reviews quickly. I haven't posted on in quite a while and didn't know of that feature. I can actually remember having no control over anonymous reviews when I first posted here. And being so relieved when finally gave us the option to block anonymous reviews because I was having problems with this one anonymous fuckwit who would go to any story I wrote and give me an offensive, abusive, "txt spk" review for every single chapter.
badly-knitted I am very pragmatic in the worst way possible. I have to say that I approve of One's "kill he/she/it/them before he/she/it/them kills us" attitude over Three's "lets watch people die because our bleeding hearts are too busy wringing our hands to do anything useful" attitude. I'd rather be considered a heartless monster than allow people to die needlessly.
Title: Respectful
Author: Daashi
Fandom: Torchwood
Characters: Ianto Jones, Suzie Costello
Pairings: n/a
Rating: 13+
Genre: Drabble
Warnings: For some strange reason I feel as though I have to give warnings to those who suffer from phobias of death, dead bodies and undertakers.
It is a good thing that Torchwood doesn't believe in burials. At least in this instance. Just imagining trying to explain all of these post-mortem injuries to an undertaker was bringing a small smile to his face. When in Torchwood, one should take humour when they find it.
That line of thought wasn't respectful to the deceased, and Mam always told him to be respectful of the dead.
But then again Suzie wasn't exactly respectful to her own dead body.

Word: Burial
bur - i - al (noun) : the act or ceremony of burying
End Notes: I have started re-reading What is Essential is Invisible to the Eye by Prothrombintime and can I say what a daunting task that is. But this story is what I credit with providing me the building blocks of my head canon. If you are fans of the Jack/Ianto relationship and haven't read that, I suggest that you do.
