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 love Janto: Luckily, the Roman got left behind. I think he jumped off before his chariot disappeared into the mysterious light. Torchwood's not really equipped to keep horses on site, so Ianto will take them to a local livery stables. The stable hands will take care of them. Thank you.

Guest: Lol! I don't think there were any actual chariots in Chariots of Fire - been a while since I last saw it. As this was probably a battle chariot, they're lucky it wasn't on fire though. Someone might have been firing flaming arrows at it! Thank you.

Ianto watched in concern. Nosy and Myfanwy were motionless, gazing with rapt attention at the TV Jack had installed. It was a disturbing sight.

Eyes widening in horror as he heard the theme tune begin, he spun on his heel, storming off in search of Jack.

"Jack? How could you?"

"Huh? What did I do now?"

"Myf and Nosy are glued to the TV!" Seeing Jack's look of alarm, he added, "Not literally, idiot!"

"Thank God. You had me worried there."

"You should be worried! You've turned our pets into couch potatoes! Worse than that, they're watching Home and Away!"

The End

A/N: Apologies to any fans of the soap.
