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.

sandysan2013: Gwen is being very Gwen-like, but at least she has a good reason this time. I'd hate to be in her situation.

Thank you!

Jack cornered Ianto in the archives, looking desperate.

"Ianto, I need your help tonight. I have to break into the library."

"Why?"

"I just found a book I forgot to return. It's kinda overdue, I don't want to get fined."

"Suck it up, Jack; we all have to pay to pay our fines, why can't you?"

"This book is really overdue, and the new librarian scares me." Jack made puppy dog eyes.

"Exactly how overdue are we talking here?"

"Umm, 73 years?"

Ianto rolled his eyes.

"Only you. Fine, I'll help. But if we're caught, you can do the explaining!"
