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: I'm hoping to get at least one more drabble written this week, though I might not write another for this prompt. Depends whether I can come up with another idea.

Thank you to everyone who reviewed last week! Your reviews are always very much appreciated.

I wonder if I might pick ypur brains? I'm trying to decide on a name for the alien butterfly in my Butterfly drabbles, but I can't think of anything, so if any of you have any ideas, please message me here or at my LJ (there's a link in my profile).

Late one night, Ianto was busy collecting rubbish from around the Hub before switching everything to night mode.

Retrieving a mug from Owen's messy desk, he headed for the kitchen, returning to find Nosy rummaging in the bag of rubbish.

"Nosy, what are you doing? Get out of there!"

Nosy backed out of the bag, something unidentifiable clutched in its mouth, and slithered towards its play area. Curious, Ianto followed, watching as Nosy carefully placed its rescued object on a narrow ledge, beside an array of similar objects.

Bottle caps.

Ianto smiled.

One man's trash was treasure to a Fluff!

The End
