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.

Disclaimer: I don't own Torchwood, or the characters.

A/N: Disappointingly, I've only managed to come up with one drabble for this week's prompt. I still have a couple of days, but I'm not hopeful about producing another *sigh*. On the bright side, I like the one I've got - it's not gloomy =)

Thanks to my reviewers who, as always, make me want to keep writing. I really need to get back to writing longer fics too, it's just a matter of having time, energy and a working brain, all at the same time. I have plot bunies aplenty though!

Mooching around Ianto's bedroom while Ianto was making the bed, Jack picked up a rather tattered something he hadn't previously noticed.

"What on earth is this?"

"That," Ianto said with indignant emphasis, snatching the object in question from Jack's hands, "Is my teddy bear, Fred. I've had him since I was a baby."

"You still keep your teddy?"

"Of course. He has great sentimental value."

Jack snorted.

"21st century humans, getting sentimental over inanimate objects."

"This from the man who keeps a bottled hand on a shelf and talks to it when he thinks no one can hear."

Jack blushed.
