Written For: Challenge 697: Inflate at tw100.

“What’s wrong with Jack?” Gwen asked worriedly on finding Torchwood’s leader lying on the Hub’s concrete floor, blue in the face. “He doesn’t look good. Shouldn’t we call Owen?”


“No, it’s his own fault; he was showing off. I asked him to inflate some balloons for Tosh’s birthday party. He decided he didn’t need the balloon pump; told me he could blow them up faster by mouth. I only wanted a dozen, so I left him to it while I finished the rest of the preparations, and when I came back, he’d blown up the whole packet of a hundred.”

Wow. My cheeks hurt thinking about this.

Everything about Jack hurts right now, I think.

Thank you!

Yes. The recovery would take a long time.

You're welcome!

He's lucky he had the puff to do it. Three would be all I could manage. Still, he wanted to make a good display for Tosh, of whom he is very fond.

He got totally carried away.

I couldn't manage one these days. Balloon pumps are my friends.

Thank you!
