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.

Guest 1: Hey, I didn't pick the prompt! I just write spiders the way I see them. You might have noticed I'm not very fond of them.

Myf would definitely want to protect her chocolate supply.

Thank you!

.

Passerby: Through the Rift, like so many other things.

No, she just stabbed them with her beak and trampled them underfoot.

Thank you!

.

Guest 2: She deserves praise and chocolate for saving them.

Thank you.

"Ianto?" Jack's plaintive voice drifted from the bathroom.

Ianto sighed, putting his book down. "What? I thought you were having a bath."

"I was, but… There's a big spider in the bathtub."

Rolling his eyes, Ianto hauled himself to his feet; he'd had a hard day and just wanted to relax. Honestly, Jack could be such a baby about spiders; it was probably tiny. Grabbing an empty milk container, he went into the bathroom.

"Oh." He stared at the spider, then at the container he held. It would never fit. "I need something bigger."

Jack nodded. "I'll get the Tupperware."
