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.

Meriel levered herself onto her feet and took a wobbly step, then tried for a second, but toppled onto her nappy-padded bottom. Frustrated rather than hurt, she let out a loud wail. This walking lark was a lot harder than her daddies made it look.

Hurrying from the kitchen to the living room to check on his daughter, Ianto stopped dead; the situation was already well in hand.

Humming sympathetically but encouragingly, Nosy consoled its charge with a Fluff-style 'hug', coiling around her. The tears stopped immediately and with a determined expression on her face, Meriel prepared to try again.
