Author: badly_knitted

Characters: Owen, mentions Katie

Rating: G

Summary: Owen mourns Katie.

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 292: Billboard Hot 100 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.

Young, beautiful and so full of life, Katie had been everything to Owen; his reason for living, the only person who loved him just the way he was, though he never understood what she saw in him. She said he was honest; he cut through the bullshit and took no nonsense from anyone.

Now she was dead, killed by an alien in her brain, and he was in Cardiff, working with a bunch of weirdos who hunted aliens.

He picked up the whiskey bottle. All he had left was Katie’s memory; he planned on drinking to it all night long.

The End

A/N2: Title used is ‘Drink To That All Night’

Thank you! In a way, I think he's the most badly damaged member of the team. He's put up all these walls and defences to keep people from getting close to him because he doesn't think he'll survive another loss.

Arguably, Ianto went through the most traumatic experience with the whole battle of Canary Wharf and trying to save Lisa, but he was able to get past that and love again. Owen seems unable to.
