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.

160. The Family Line

Title: The Family Line

Author: badly-knitted

Characters: Jack, Ianto

Rating: G

Written For: Challenge 295 – Family Tree at tw100

Spoilers: None at all.

Summary: Jack reassures Ianto after Gwen's wedding.

Disclaimer: I don't own Torchwood, or the characters.

A/N: The second of my two drabbles for the current challenge.

I love Janto: Thank you. Ianto likes Jack's future traditions, so he's always happy to incorporate them into their family life whenever possible. Sorry for worrying you, time and inspiration have been lacking over the last week so I only managed to get two drabbles written

"It wasn't what you were thinking, you know." Jack spoke quietly into the silence as he drove Ianto home from Gwen's wedding.

"What wasn't?" Ianto was drowsy from the long day and the champagne.

"My dance with Gwen. It had nothing to do with me fancying her, or regretting that she'd chosen Rhys. I wanted, no, needed her to marry Rhys. It was such a relief to get them both through their wedding in one piece."

"You're not entirely making sense. Which isn't unusual…"

Jack stopped the SUV outside Ianto's home.

"They don't marry, I don't exist. They're my ancestors."
