Drabble: Spider-Man

Title: Spider-Man

Author: badly_knitted

Characters: Jack, Ianto.

Rating: G

Written For: Challenge 340: Spiders at tw100

Spoilers: Nada.

Summary: Jack has fallen foul of an alien therapy device.

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

“It’s supposed to help people deal with their phobias,” Jack said, sounding peeved.

“Become that which scares you the most and you lose your fear of it. I can see how that might work. On some people, anyway.” Ianto studied the giant spider in front of him curiously; Jack’s face stared mournfully back at him from the spider’s ‘head’. “So what’s it feel like?”

“Really weird. I’ve got too many legs, I keep tripping over my own feet.” He tried to walk forward, got all his legs tangled and toppled over at Ianto’s feet. “See?” he whined. “I hate spiders!”

Yeah, but he's still Jack, just a bit on the spidery side. Okay, a lot on the spidery side. But still Jack. Honest!

Thank you!

Ha ha. Don't think Jack's going to be cured at the end of this somehow...

Doubtful, he's discovering a whole new stack of reasons for hating spiders!

Thank you!

I have a feeling it's not terribly effective...

Thank you!

Oh dear, that doesn't sound very pleasant!

I think it's safe to say Jack's not relishing the experience, poor boy.

Thank you.

For some reason that old movie The Fly keeps running through my head...

There are certainly similarities - more to the original version than the Jeff Goldblum remake.

Thank you!

Jack's never looked creepier! He's scared of himself now.

Thank you!
