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.

A/N2: Apologies to reviewers - you WILL get replies to your reviews as soon as I can. Yesterday, the site kept insisting that your reviews didn't exist, and wouldn't let me reply, then today I had to go out and i haven't had a chance yet to find out if the problem has been fixed, so please bear with me!

The woman, blonde haired and elegantly dressed in a business suit, had introduced herself as Yvonne Hartman. Ianto thought she was quite attractive, in an ice-queen kind of way. She smiled a lot, but it didn't reach her eyes.

"I'm director of a top-secret government think tank; a smart young man like you is wasted serving coffee, you have untapped potential and I think you'd be an excellent fit in my organisation. Regular office hours, varied and interesting work, and you'll easily quadruple what you're earning here. Interested?"

Which was how Ianto came to work for Torchwood One. Serving coffee.
