Written For: Challenge 312 – Awkward Moments at tw100
Spoilers: Nada.
Summary: Some days, Tosh swears the universe is out to humiliate her.
Disclaimer: I don't own Torchwood, or the characters.
A/N: My first drabble for the new challenge. Hopefully I will come up with a few more ideas.

I love Janto: Yeah, the macine has a number of failsafes built in, including one that makes sure you don't regain your usual form unless you have the space to do so safely. Transforming back into humans while tangled up together under the sofa would probably be very uncomfortable, maybe even painful, so a little warning voice in Jack's head suggested he should move away.
Thank you!

Guest: Jack moved not because he wanted to, but because the device compelled him to so that when transforming back into humans they wouldn't get stuck or accidentally hurt. Ianto would turn back just before Jack, it wouldn't do for Jack-ferret to get squished. (Plus, I wrote and posted Weird Awakenings first, which had Ianto waking under the sofa and Jack under the coffee table, so I had to make sure they ended up in the right places, lol! But the reasoning stands, it's one of the device's safety features.)
Thank you.

Some days, Tosh was certain the universe was having a laugh at her expense.
Despite a brisk breeze, Ianto had decided he'd fetch lunch for the team, inviting Tosh to accompany him. Now she wished she'd said no.
She wasn't sure what happened, but somehow her wrap-around skirt had got caught on Ianto and suddenly she was skirtless. Turning bright pink, Ianto hastily untangled the wayward skirt from his arm, handing it back and averting his eyes.
"Um, I'll just pretend I didn't notice that, shall I?" he asked.
"Good idea."
Tosh really hoped that hadn't been caught on CCTV!
