Spoilers: Nada.
Summary: Torchwood, providing free Weevil care since 2000.
Disclaimer: I don’t own Torchwood, or the characters.
One of Torchwood’s ongoing projects was to tag as many Weevils as they could to track and identify them. Whenever time could be spared, they’d round up a bunch, check their health, catalogue them, inject trackers and return them to the sewers.
Weevils were unpredictable; the team could never be sure whether they would attack or try to escape when they were approached, but this was new.
Coming across a group of three adults, instead of attacking, the Weevils had approached, two of them helping the third, which was injured.
Maybe their project was having a positive effect after all.
The End

Date: 2015-06-23 11:25 am (UTC)I helped out in the school library during breaks and lunchtime, my last two years in grammar school, worked unpaid on Saturdays in the local children's library and applied to every library in the area when I left school at 16, ended up working in the university's science library until health problems forced me to give up work. It was a great job.

Date: 2015-06-24 04:27 pm (UTC)That's...considerably not nice of them. I was told that with basically all of my pains for a while - which is kind of ironic, because they were related to mental health issues. Nausea as part of severe anxiety and the disordered and not all that metaphorical tbh voice in my head that told me I shouldn't be eating, headaches bc stress, so on. Those problems are somewhat lessened now. A couple months ago I even started learning what hunger actually feels like! Which in retrospect seems like such a weird thing not to know but yeah.
*hugs*
