Drabble: Urban Redevelopment

Title: Urban Redevelopment

Author: [livejournal.com profile] badly_knitted

Characters: Jack, Ianto

Rating: G

Written For: Challenge 316 – Reverse Fandom – How I Met Your Mother at [livejournal.com profile] tw100

Spoilers: Nada.

Summary: Jack’s been having fun.

Disclaimer: I don’t own Torchwood, or the characters.

A/N: This will probably be my last drabble for this challenge. I don’t have any more written and tomorrow I need to post two of my bingo fics, the first two parts of my big AU series. There will be seven parts altogether, of wildly varying lengths. So, apologies if there’s no drabble for a couple of days. I hope to resume drabbles on Thursday.






Stepping into Jack’s office early one morning, Ianto found his lover watching CCTV on his computer and grinning.



“What’s got you so happy this damp and dreary morning?”



“Come and see this!”



Ianto joined Jack and leant over his shoulder. The screen showed a nearby building site, where a load of sand had been delivered the previous day. The builders were standing around it scratching their heads, bemused and unsure how to proceed. Sometime during the night, someone had got past site security and turned the building sand into sandcastles.



Ianto laughed.



“Bored last night, were you?”



“Couldn’t resist it!”



The End



A/N2: Title used was ‘Sandcastles In The Sand’

Jack is such a child! And yet he's by far the oldest member of the Torchwood team xD

Now we know what Jack does when he is left alone and bored!

Jack is such a five year old, but you gotta love his sense of humor. Hilarious that Ianto just automatically knew without asking that it was Jack's doing, and that he was amused by it.

Haha beware of bored Jack! At least it was something fairly innocuous haha.

When I read that it reminded me of the shooting of the Boeshane scenes, they filled up the yard of a building with sand (I wonder what would happen if Jack was really there with a bucket and a spade)

Love the thought of a carefree Jack playing in the sand.

Ianto should get a sign for Jack's door that reads, "Caution: Captain Is Bored". *giggles*
