Author:

Characters: Jack, Team
Rating: PG
Spoilers: Nada.
Summary: Jack has an endless supply of amusing stories to tell.
Disclaimer: I don’t own Torchwood, or the characters.
A/N: For
mahmfic’s prompt ‘Tales’
Jack was a spinner of tall tales, so his team took everything he said with a grain of salt. His claims were far too outrageous to be true, but they were fun to listen to so no one really minded.
Of course, most of Jack’s tales involved sex. There were stories of his sexcapades with boyfriends and girlfriends, humans and aliens; anecdotes about the historical figures he’d bedded during his many years on earth; long, rambling accounts of the hair-raising adventures he’d had with the Time Agency.
No one would have believed that his wildest tales were the absolute truth.
The End

He's telling them all the time, they're just dismissing what he says.

This is too much for them to think that this is true.
It is also true that may be, they do not realize it is so old: he is so young!
