Title: What’s In A Name? - Sequel to ‘Un-zoo-table’

Author: badly_knitted

Characters: Ianto, Jack, OC

Rating: G

Written For: Challenge 316 – Reverse Fandom – How I Met Your Mother at tw100

Spoilers: Nada.

Summary: Ianto names the latest member of Torchwood’s menagerie.

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

A/N: Prompt at end.

As the scans didn’t register anything harmful, Ianto unwrapped the Possimpible, plonking it on the floor. It smiled up at him and went bouncing around the autopsy bay. He watched carefully to make sure it didn’t get into trouble. It was surprisingly well behaved, and had rather a nice smile really.

“I think I’ll call her Daisy.”

“Why?”

“That’s what she was eating when we caught her.”

“Ah. Good choice. I guess that means we’re keeping her?”

They followed Daisy into the main Hub, where she was putting rubbish in the bin.

“We can always use another pair of hands.”

A/N2: Title used is ‘Daisy’

TBC in ‘Seeing Things?’

I love this series! And Daisy looks so cute. I don't know where you find all your ideas, but they're fantastic. :D

I have this vague memory of a picture, possibly real, probably faked, maybe even a cartoon with a smiling kangaroo. Maybe I dreamed it, it wouldn't be the weirdest thing I've ever dreamed, not by a long shot!

I'm not at all sure how I got here from Jack running naked through the streets of Cardiff though... LOL! When I start writing, I never know what's going to happen. Things pop into my head and if they amuse me, I write them.

Thank you!

*hugs tight* I feel your pain! Immortal Gwack is just so many kinds of wrong!

I'll see what I can do with your request, but for now I hope these will wash away the Gwack nasty aftertastelessness.

Thank you! More from Daisy shortly.

You're welcome, hope you enjoy!

You know what my first thought was?

"Daisy, meet Nosy - Nosy, meet Daisy..."

[bk_forever]

Don't worry, you're not the only one - I just need to see if there's a suitable prompt I can use or if I'm going to do a drabble/ficlet without an official prompt, connected to this series.

Thank you!

Daisy sounds like a good name for her and lord knows Ianto can use the extra help cleaning up after the slobs in the Hub.

[bk_forever]

She'll have no problem earning her keep, that's for sure. I can just see her tutting at Owen for making a mess, lol!

Now Daisy has taken over this series there are at least two more parts to come, with room for more if I can find suitable promps!

Thank you!

[owensheart.livejournal.com]

Well It seem ianto has a little helper :)

Great drabble.

[bk_forever]

He'll not turn down an offer of assistance, lol!

Thank you!

Daisy! Another Hub pet! I just love it. :)

[bk_forever]

Heehee! thank you!

I've got one reader on ff.net who's taking this series way too seriously and is so stressed about poor Daisy possibly being sentient and part humaan, lol! Daisy doesn't care, she's quite happy!

I know this started with a naked Jack but then again, finding the defrabricator took care of Jack and his nekkid. This is more like TW's version of Alice & Wonderland starring Jack & Ianto. But I love the progression and now we have Daisy :D. The Hub is becoming well populated with wonderful lifeforms :D

[bk_forever]

I have a fascination for weird creatures - you've probably noticed, lol!

I love that ANYTHING can exist in Torchwood - one day I am SO turning Ianto into a platypus or an anteater or something equally bizarre!

I've done a couple of parts with Owen explaining things, hopefully posting them today.

[asia27.livejournal.com]

Oh my head!! Brain bleach needed on aisle 3!!!! I've just had a mental image of Ianto-octopus chasing merman Jack... Weird can be good as long as its fun and you write such good 'weird' :D

[bk_forever]

The boys do have fun, they take their role-playing to such interesting extremes!

Thank you!

[awieatti.livejournal.com]

Aww, what a cute little creature! And useful, too. Yes, they should keep her! Maybe Ianto could even teach her how to cook coffee xD

[bk_forever]

She wouldn't be able to carry the cups without spilling it though, lol!

Thank you!

[timelordshines.livejournal.com]

Yay another pet for the Hub :-)
Nice name.

[bk_forever]

It was one of the prompts, so I thought it would be a good name for her!

The Torchwood team always needs more pets *nods*

Thank you!

[too-beauty.livejournal.com]

Awww love the name! and she is already looking up to Ianto!!!!

[bk_forever]

She has no choice about looking up to Ianto, he's a lot taller than she is, lol!

She does like Ianto thaough (who doesn't?) and she wants to be liked.

Thank you!

[jedi-harkness.livejournal.com]

Ah, it's a she. And she helps around the Hub. Oh yeah, Daisy'a a keeper. ;)

[bk_forever]

If it's helpful, it's their's, lol!

Thank you!
