Title: Apprehended – Sequel to ‘At The Source’

Author: badly_knitted

Characters: Ianto, Jack. OC

Rating: G

Written For: Challenge 337: Unloved Prompts at tw100, using Challenge 233: Rabbits.

Spoilers: Nada.

Summary: The culprit is captured.

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

Having managed to reach him through the sea of rabbits, persuading their captive to confess proved easy. Much as the guy loved rabbits, he was overwhelmed by the chaos he’d inadvertently wrought and just wanted it to stop. Pet rabbits were one thing, but several dozen freshly hatched, fast-growing bunnies were another matter entirely.

As Jack commented, infallible get-rich-quick schemes have a habit of blowing up in your face. If something seems too good to be true, it usually is.

Promising not to press charges if he handed everything over, Jack and Ianto were led to a cottage in Splott.

I am sure this guy just wants to be rid of everything. great drabble

[bk_forever]

I think you're right - his money-making scheme went spectacularly wrong, now he just wants things to go back to normal.

Thank you.

Ohhhh *runs off to next part* I must know what happens :O

[bk_forever]

LOL!

Still one more part to post, so you'll have o wait until tomorrow for that!

Thank you.

Hahaha! I just wrote my first drabble in AGES like just now... I forgot about 100 words XD

[bk_forever]

Congrats!

Thanks ahaha although I shouldn't really be typing. I should be resting my wrist seeing as I have buggered it probably by all the typing I have been doing :O *shakes head* just cant stop writing XD

Rest isn't always the best thing. If it's tendons or ligaments, then ice for 10 minutes 3 or 4 times a day, and do gentle wrist exercises. Clench and unclench your fist 10 times. With fingers straight, bend and straighten your wrist slowly 10 times. Again with fingers straight, open and close fingers 10 times. With wrist straight, bend fingers one at a time down towards your wrist and straighten them again (more than one finger will move, but that's normal). These are exercises I do every time I do my wrist in. They do help, just do them gently and slowly.

Oh thanks :) I'll try these in the morning! X

[bk_forever]

For best results, do them several times a day. They don't take long and can be done while doing other things - reading, watching tv, walking down the street... (best keep your arm down by your side if you do that though, or people might think you're making rude gestures at them!)

I have very weak wrists, so my doctor gave me the exercises to do when I had tendonitis. Between them and the ice, if my wrist starts to go, I can usually keep it from getting bad and heal it faster. Otherwise, it can take mine 8 weeks to heal.

[wavingkilts.livejournal.com]

Hahaha yeah I'm not sure they'd appreciate that! 😱 8 weeks! Wow!!! Well it's been like this for four days now so I may go to te doctors

[bk_forever]

As long as it's not broken you should be okay.

My wrists take longer than average to heal, six weeks at most is usually the norm but I've had trouble with mine throughout my life.

Hope yours will heal fast.

Poor guy. At least Jack was easy on him since it wasn't entirely his fault.

[bk_forever]

Jack's not vindictive, it's not like the guy was trying to take over the world with bunnies or anything, he can be sympathetic.

Thank you.

[timelordshines.livejournal.com]

That's a good point Jack, and a lesson I'm sure the poor shop keeper will have learnt!

[bk_forever]

He has, now all he'd left with are too many rabbits and regrets.

Thank you!

Splott, it's always Splott. LOL

[bk_forever]

The place is a magnet for weirdness!

Thank you!
