Drabble: The Possimpible - Sequel to ‘Identifying The Impossible’

Title: The Possimpible - Sequel to 'Identifying The Impossible'

Author: [livejournal.com profile] badly_knitted

Characters: Ianto, Jack, OC

Rating: G

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

Spoilers: Nada.

Summary: Jack explains, which doesn’t really help much.

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

A/N: Prompt = title.






“A Possimpible? What’s that?” Ianto sounded rather bemused.



Jack laughed.



“Possimpibles are things that’re mostly what they should be, but partly not. It’s an occasional side effect of living so close to the Rift. Almost everyone around here is a tiny bit not what they are, but in most cases it’s like 0.00001%, practically undetectable, you’d never know. Some creatures attract more of what they aren’t though, and they become Possimpibles. This one seems to have picked up nearly 8% of Not Wallaby. That’s high, must’ve been very near a few Rift events.”


“Is it dangerous?”



“Nah. Just kinda weird.”



TBC in ‘Un-zoo-table

Yes, that is a bit weird...but trust Jack to really know what their new friend is!

*scratches head* a little confused here. Ha maybe I should, wait to read until my head is a bit clearer.

Funny though.

Having a fever doesn't help me understand Jack's convoluted speech. Now I wait patiently for the flash-fanworks challenge to be over so I can post my piece in journal.

Thanks. Summer colds are the worst. The weather is hot and so am I, not a good combo.

I don't know that fandom you write those fills for. Heh for this last one I finished a story I had started a whole ago and plus I,got my first bingo fill.

So the rift just kind of scrambles the DNA? Strangely enough, that seems like a completely plausible explanation. I wonder if over the years, the little differences would get compounded until you ended up with what basically qualified as an entirely different species. Hey, that could be where things like Platypus' came from.

Just kinda weird - that's how the professionals call it! :D

great drabble.

Lol!
Makes sense I guess..

The Torchwood team seek out rift activity.... does that mean they are in danger of becoming possimpibles?

Sounds like a rather... interesting creature! ;)
