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.

338. Fear Of Falling

A/N: My second drabble for tw100's Open Challenge week. I'm aiming for one a day for as long as the challenge lasts, since there's no shortage of prompts to choose from.

I love Janto: Roy was afraid all the time, but it wasn't enough. In some ways, it made things worse for him; because he was afraid of her, he treated Jasmine badly and the Fae took their revenge for the harm he did to their Chosen One.

Thank you.

Sandysan2013: Ch. 335 - Me too, it must have been hilarious! Thank you.

Ch. 336 - Oh yes, she's learned her lesson! If you miss the chocolate, wait for your pet humans to find it for you, otherwise you end up looking silly and the grumpy one laughs at you.

Thank you!

Jack loved high places; you could see forever if you were high enough. He had no fear of falling from them because really, what was the worst that could happen? He'd smash himself up, die and come back healed. Or mostly healed anyway. Sometimes he came back before everything was completely fixed, which could be unpleasant, but not to the extent that he feared it.

Besides, if the building was tall enough, falling was actually quite enjoyable, at least until he reached the ground. No, falling from a building was fine.

It was falling in love that he really feared.
