The Torchwood Drabble Files

by badly-knitted

A collection of Torchwood drabbles that continues to grow. Thanks to everyone who's making this possible. You're greatly appreciated, so I'm reinstating an old game - the writer of every 100th review gets to request a drabble/ficlet of their choice. Still using a T rating to cover anything I might write, just to be safe.

"This is breaking and entering," Andy said, shifting uncomfortably from one foot to the other. Even though he was a Torchwood agent now, he still thought like a copper.

"Technically it's not breaking, just entering," Ianto said, pushing the door open. "Nifty device, this; it can open any lock."

"Entering without permission then."

"Getting permission wasn't an option; the people who live here are on holiday in Malaga, although why anyone would want to go there…" Ianto led the way inside the dark suburban house, Andy following a bit reluctantly, and closed the door behind them before flicking on a small torch and pulling his scanner out of his pocket. "Right, whatever we're looking for is this way."

"I can't believe I'm doing this! I swore to uphold the law and here I am breaking it, sneaking into someone's home while they're away to commit a theft."

"Relax, Andy; it would only be theft if we took something that belongs to the homeowners. All we're doing is retrieving something that shouldn't be here. We wouldn't be doing anyone any favours if we left it and it turned out to be a bomb, or something equally dangerous."

"I suppose you're right."
