Title: Squeezing In

Author: badly_knitted

Characters: Owen, Rhys, Jack, Ianto, Tosh mentioned

Rating: PG-13

Spoilers: Fragments.

Summary: How do you fit six adults in a small car?

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

A/N: For one of the prompts I didn’t get around to using for tw100’s challenge 288 last year. I’ve dug them out again to supplement the prompts I got from my f-list, just because there are still loads I wanted to use. Prompt at the end.

They’d survived the bombs, but it would take a miracle to get them back to the Hub in the only vehicle they had at their disposal.

“How the fuck are six of us supposed to fit in that sardine can?” Owen demanded.

Rhys was not too pleased with Owen’s insult.

“What’re yer on about? There’s plenty of room in the back.”

“It’s fine, Owen. Ianto can sit on my lap.”


”Like hell, Jack! I’d be jammed against the roof and you’d get… overexcited. Tosh can sit on my lap, Owen in the middle.”

“You take the fun out of everything.”

The End

A/N2: Prompt used was ‘Plenty of Room in the Back’

Oh how fun! But let's face it, the sight of paperclips can get Jack overexcited ... Ianto's just a party pooper sometimes. Thanks for the giggle.

*grin* Jack has so many kinks, everything gets him excited, lol! Still, he should have been more considerate. Ianto
had a dislocated shoulder. He needed to sit comfortably so he could relax.

Thank you!

Jack and his ideas ....... hilarious!

[bk_forever]

He's an opportunist - he'll use every opportunity for close contact, lol!

Thank you!

"you’d get… overexcited"
ROTFL!!! What an understatement!!

[bk_forever]

An overexcited Jack is quite a handful ;)

Thank you!

lol oh Jack, but I do think Ianto's Idea is better.

great drabble

[bk_forever]

It's certainly safer and more comfortable for everyone.

Thank you!

Aw...Ianto took Jack's fun away from him!

I have always wondered just how they all did fit in that car...

[bk_forever]

The real reason Ianto didn't want to sit on Jack's lack is because his shoulder hurt and being wedged against the roof of the car would make it worse, but he didn't want to worry Jack.

A little ingenuity is all it takes. It's surprising how many can fit in even a small car!

Thank you!

Ianto! let's see !!!!!
We do not keep a small grudge against Jack? (to be forced to leave the hub, even if it was the only solution!)

[bk_forever]

No one forced Ianto to leave the Hub, the whole team went to investigate and fell foul of the bombs Hart and Gray planted. Except Gwen, who overslept. Now they have to get back to the Hub, and both Ianto and Tosh are injured.

Thank you!

Lol. Ianto has a point. As the smallest it makes sense for tosh to sit on someone's knee. Of course if they were thinking straight Jack as the biggest should have been in the front with Rhys letting gwen be in the back with the others. 6 adults dont really fit in a five seat car...

[bk_forever]

Can you see Gwen giving up the front seat? Only way she'd do that would be to be in the back with Jack.

Besides, Ianto's shoulder had been dislocated, he didn't want to be cramped over uncomfortably jammed against the ceiling.

Fragments irritated me a bit because of the injuries that their medic made no attempt to treat. Tosh's arm should have been splinted at least, and Ianto's arm put in a sling. Doesn't Rhys have a first aid kit in his car?

Thank you!
