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.

A/N: Thank you to my reviewers, glad you liked the last one! I Love Janto - Yes, Ianto really likes things to be just so - even when it comes to his sandwiches. He's very particular!

I'm not sure about this drabble, I don't think it's one of my best, but it's what I ended up with. I've tried changing bits, but then I end up with too many words, so I figured I'd better stop fiddling anf just post it.

"What are you two up to?" Ianto asked Tosh, who was talking animatedly to Nosy.

"I'm teaching Nosy about different shapes!" Tosh sounded rather pleased with herself.

Ianto raised an eyebrow. "Care to demonstrate?"

Tosh grinned. "Nosy, what shape is a wheel?"

Nosy squiggled around, nose to tail, until its body formed a circle.

"Very good!" She gave Nosy a grape. "What shape is an egg?"

More squiggling and Nosy settled into a rough oval, earning itself another grape.

"Impressive."

"Bet you £10 it can't do a triangle," said Owen.

Nosy rearranged itself.

"Huh."

"World's first triangular Fluff!" Ianto smirked.

The End

A/N2: I have one more drabble written for this prompt, but I'm still trying to find other ideas so who knows? I'll probably post the third one on Friday. Maybe.
