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.

Title: Hot Pursuit

Author: badly-knitted

A/N: A second drabble for you lucky people today, and another one for angelsphonebox, who provided the prompt 'Dashing through the snow.'

I love Janto: Happy Fluffs make for happy people! Ianto is too busy laughing to be mad at Nosy for turning Santa on again. Besides, Nosy has the right idea - when there's music, dance! Thank you. Happy Christmas!

Racing headlong past a group of carollers, Ianto reflected that this probably wasn't what they meant by 'Dashing through the snow.' Of course, where Torchwood was concerned, such things tended to be literal.

It was snowing heavily; visibility was poor and the footing was increasingly treacherous. Ianto prayed he wouldn't break an ankle. Jack was just ahead now, charging downhill in hot pursuit of the weevil.

Suddenly Ianto slipped, crashing into Jack, sending them both skidding out of control. The weevil didn't stand a chance.

Coming to rest on top of their quarry, Jack noted, "At least we caught it!"
