Drabble: A Life In Boxes

Title: A Life In Boxes

Author: badly_knitted

Characters: Jack.

Rating: G

Written For: Challenge 356: Boxes at tw100

Spoilers: Nada.

Summary: In front of Jack is a life packed in boxes…

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

Dozens of boxes were all that remained in the otherwise empty apartment. Each was carefully labelled: Books, CDs, DVDs, Kitchen stuff, Crockery, Socks, Towels… A whole life reduced to a series of cardboard containers, carefully stacked with the heaviest at the bottom, and the lightest on the top. Several were labelled Fragile and Jack was being particularly careful with those, leaving them for last.

He picked up a couple more, carrying them out to the SUV and loading them in the back. Maybe he should’ve rented a van.

Moving Ianto into the Hub was a bigger job than he’d expected!

The End

I wouldn't do that. Ianto is fine =)

Hi! Hopefully the stitches and the eye patch will be gone soon! *hugs*

Hi,
Ianto is so worth it.
Jack did need to get the truck.
Ianto would label everything.

I left a message on my e-mail. I hope it gets though.
FF is down, at least TW FF is.

I hope that you are felling better.

I did reply on ff.net last night. I couldn't access the site but it was letting me reply to reviews. Seems to be working today.

I reckon Ianto for Rhys and a Harwoods' van for his furniture, but Jack said the SUV would be fine for the rest. He probably didn't realise there would be so much, lol!

Thank you!

Ianto calls Rhys and Hardwoods for a lot of things.
TW does need things to be moved, Rhys can be trusted.


FF is up, for now.

Very true about Rhys.

I'mm glad ff.net is working properly, I won't have to worry about posting later!

Moving is a hard Job, no two ways about it.

great drabble.

[bk_forever]

Jack is discovering that, lol!

Thank you!

Ianto, we're gonna need a bigger bunker! Lol!

[bk_forever]

I think Jack's already extended it, but they still might need to store some of Ianto's stuff until they get a flat of their own.

Thank you!

Aww. For a minute I was braced for sadness. Should have trusted you. Love domestic gentleness

[bk_forever]

Yeah, I'm not going to kill Ianto, or at least not permanently! Jack's just a bit overwhelmed by the moving process, he hasn't had to deal with that in a long time!

Thank you!
