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.

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

A/N: My first drabble for this prompt. I have a second one written, but I don't know yet if I'll manage any more.

Meirionwen: Glad you liked it. I'm not sure if they met while Ianto was still young, but whether they did or not, sometime between then and when he joined Torchwood Three, Ianto must have been Retconned for some reason. What do you think?

I love Janto: People don't always notice what's in front of their eyes, but Ianto is observant, he watches. He's seen Jack before and likes what he sees.

It was Owen's turn on night duty, so he'd come prepared.

Snacks, a handheld computer game for entertainment until bedtime, his iPod loaded with great music, and something else hidden at the bottom of his bag that he'd made sure no one else found out about.

The team had all gone home, Jack and Ianto were on a date and the Hub was quiet. Nosy slithered obediently into its bunk and Owen tucked it in.

"Ready for your bedtime story?"

Nosy hummed eagerly.

Owen pulled a book from his bag and settled down.

"Green Eggs and Ham, by Doctor Seuss…"
