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.

"How dare you insult me! Do you even know who I am?" The unfortunate alien standing before the Torchwood team, looking somewhat bedraggled from a precipitous trip through the Rift, grew larger as it spoke, its body swelling within its tattered robes. "I'm Cheloosniak of Zindaria!"

"According to your insignia, you're third undersecretary of transport, a very minor official of the smallest Zindarian borough," Ianto corrected. "And you're not on your own planet now."

All the air went out of Cheloosniak as they visibly deflated.

"Gives a whole new meaning to inflating your own importance, doesn't it?" Jack said mildly.
