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.

286. Fragmented

Title: Fragmented - Sequel To 'Keeping Busy'

Author: badly-knitted

Characters: Ianto, Jack, Team

Rating: G

Written For: Challenge 308 – Multitasking at tw100

Spoilers: Nada.

Summary: The effects of the alien tech on Ianto may not be unwelcome to Ianto, but they're seriously disorienting to everyone else.

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

A/N: My second drabble for Challenge 308 – Multitasking at tw100. I decided to continue with the idea from 'Keeping Busy'. There will be one more part to finish this one off.

I love Janto: It's true, Tosh is too good for most people, but she will find happiness in time. Most likely with New Improved Owen, though I might write her with someone else someday. Ianto loves her, but as a friend. Tommy would have been wonderful for her if only he hadn't had to return to his own time.

Thank you.

Although Ianto was enjoying his new ability to do everything at once, it was freaking the team out.

He was impossible to look at or to interact with in any way since none of him was in any particular place at any given time. Just trying to look at him proved so disorienting that Jack eventually had to go and lie down. The others just kept their heads down, focussing on their own work to avoid seeing the fragmented, blurry image of their colleague flitting about the Hub like a disjointed ghost.

Everyone hoped the effect would wear off soon.
