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: But sometimes Ianto still underestimates Jack's ingenuity when it comes to catching him naked, lol!

Rather than punishment, Ianto is contemplating revenge. He'll come up with something inventive I'm sure!

Thank you!

Bagting Hangin: *grins* Glad you liked it, and you're welcome! Once I gave it some thought, I could see how Jack would have succeeded in spying despite the problems presented by the drone's size etc.

Thank you!

sandysan2013: He knows, yes, but he thought he'd taken enough precautions to prevent Jack from spying. Next time, he'll check the shower room thoroughly first!

I'm sure Ianto will come up with something good for payback, but he hasn't told me yet ;)

Before Ianto could plan his revenge, the Rift decided to wake up.

Alarms started blaring while he was dressing and the drone headed for the door, jiggling impatiently to be let out.

Ianto rolled his eyes, reminding himself that it was just a machine; the impatience was all Jack's, desperate to finally try his new toy in the field. Well, Jack could wait for him to put his shoes on; there was no way he was walking to the main Hub barefoot.

When he finally opened the door, the drone zipped out, heading for the stairs with Ianto trailing behind.

OoOoOoOoO

Once the drone was programmed with the Rift spike's coordinates, Ianto placed it on the invisible lift, sending it to the surface before joining the others in the SUV.

By the time he climbed into the passenger seat, Tosh already had their new toy airborne and was tracking it on her computers.

It was performing well so far, taking the most direct route possible, navigating smoothly around obstacles at an altitude of thirty metres. Already halfway to its programmed destination while they were barely underway due to the early evening traffic, Tosh said it should arrive well ahead of them.
