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.

"Take this," Jack said, handing the trembling woman a small white pill and a bottle of water.

She looked at the pill suspiciously. "What is it?"

"A mild sedative. It'll help you relax; you've had a nasty shock."

"I'll say." She shivered and quickly gulped the pill down with a mouthful of water. "What was that thing anyway?"

"We don't know for certain, but we think it was probably a mugger who'd seen too many horror movies."

"It looked very real."

Jack turned away so she didn't see his smile. There were few things more real than an enraged Weevil.
