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.

I think this is my third drabble for the current challenge. I'm pretty sure I have three more written and I'm hoping to do one more for this week.

I love Janto: Your wish is my command! I don't know when it will get written, but I swear I will get there!

Thank you to everyone who has reviewed my drabbles, I always love hearing from you!

OoOoOoOoO

Browsing his record collection one evening for something to play, Jack turned to Ianto.

"Did I ever tell you I knew Pavarotti?"

"Really? What was he like?"

"Well, I didn't really know him as such, but I met him. Once. In passing. Okay, I nearly bumped into him outside a restaurant in London."

"Ah." Ianto smiled. "So you knew Pavarotti the way I know Charlotte Church."

Jack looked intrigued.

"Saw her once from behind when she was opening a summer fair. Could've reached out and touched her but a crowd was in the way."

Jack laughed.

"Yeah. Exactly like that."
