Spoilers: Nada.
Summary: There’s a situation that Ianto thinks should be checked out, but where’s Jack?
Disclaimer: I don’t own Torchwood, or the characters.
A/N: And regular drabble service is resumed. Enjoy!
Ianto had his TV on low for background noise, but turned it up when he heard the local news reporting a streaker running through Cardiff. That was unusual enough to warrant investigation. Picking up his phone, he pressed speed dial one to call Jack and when that failed to get an answer, tried his bluetooth.
“Jack? There’re reports of a streaker. Do you want me to investigate?”
Jack replied, sounding out of breath.
“No need. Ianto, you know that retrieval I said I could handle alone?”
“Yes?”
“I could use a hand. And some clothes…”
Should’ve guessed.
“On my way.”

Thank you!

Date: 2014-06-26 08:18 pm (UTC)And I love how someone streaking is unusual enough to warrant investigation--implying that streaking is equal to all of the other random crap that Torchwood investigates and deals with.
So you're done with Bingo fics, then?

Date: 2014-06-26 08:42 pm (UTC)Streaking through the city is somewhat unusual even for Cardiff - if it was a a sports stadium, that's one thing, but in the streets? Well, who knows if it's alien influenced? Such things have to be checked out, lol!
All bingo fics written, 5 still to post, three of which I still have to edit, but the longest one has been posted. Splitting it in three for LJ was a nightmare *rolls eyes* Stupid LJ. Back to drabbling on the side.

Date: 2014-06-26 11:06 pm (UTC)Of course, as soon as you mentioned a streaker I knew it was Jack, but I like how you rationalised it. Well done.
I will read the rest of your bingo fics after the weekend. I still have three left to post. One is in the editing phase but the other two are barely started. And I'm busy at the weekend so only have tonight and tomorrow afternoon....
Need caffeine....
How are you getting on? Have you got all yours written now? How many are left to post?
no subject
Date: 2014-06-26 11:18 pm (UTC)There will be three more to tell the rest of the story. ;)
I have five left to post - all are written but three still need editing and headers, one will have to be posted in two parts on LJ, damn it. That means extra work. I'll be editing all day tomorrow when I'm not posting. I'm keeping my posting template up to date, adding each fic as it's posted so at least posting that should be fairly easy once I have all my fics up.
I still need to write my fan_flashworks piece too. I'll catch up with reading once the bingo is done and all posted, same as you! Good luck with getting your last ones finished!
