Drabble: Cold Comfort

Characters: Ianto, Jack, mentions the team
Rating: PG
Written For: Challenge 301 - Frost at
tw100
Spoilers: None.
Summary: Ianto and Jack are trapped by malicious aliens. This one’s a bit dark.
Disclaimer: I don’t own Torchwood, or the characters.
Ianto snuggled closer to Jack, pulling the blankets tightly around them both as he watched fingers of frost spreading lacy patterns across the SUV’s windows.
Jack was cold, almost frozen solid by the aliens they’d been hunting, but in here with the emergency heat packs and thermal blankets, the doors securely locked and the windows tightly closed, they’d be safe enough.
Hopefully it wouldn’t be long before the rest of the team arrived with flame-throwers and heat grenades. Then Ianto would willingly join the fight against the ice demons who’d killed his captain for fun.
They were going to pay.

Thank you.

Date: 2013-12-11 11:05 pm (UTC)Seems to me this weeks prompt might work well for a sequel to this! (*Makes Jack's puppy-dog face*)

Oh yes, those demons are in trouble, though they'll probably have to wait until the third drabble to get their comeuppance. I might melt them as a second fill for this week's prompt. Give them an early thaw!
Thank you!

Date: 2013-12-14 09:56 am (UTC)I'm sure Ianto will be able to think of some fun ways to warm Jack up once he comes back to life and the aliens have been dealt with. :-)

Date: 2013-12-14 12:35 pm (UTC)The first sequel is up, I think there are four more parts written. The last one doesn't fit the prompt and one of the others is a bit tenuous, but they'll all be linked so people can find them.
Thank you.
