Drabble: Get A Grip!

Title: Get A Grip!

Author: badly_knitted

Characters: Ianto, Tosh, Jack.

Rating: PG

Written For: Challenge 410: Hand at tw100.

Spoilers: Nada.

Summary: Jack is having much more fun following an accident with alien tech than Ianto is.

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

It was disconcerting, Ianto decided. That was the only way to describe it. He was accustomed to the peculiarities mishandled alien tech sometimes inflicted on the team, it’d happened more times than he could remember offhand, but this…

He winced at his choice of phrase; ‘hand’ and ‘off’ were not words he wanted to hear together right now. He watched the shadows, unsure where Jack’s detachable hand might accost him from next.

Something touched his arm and he yelped, jumping about a foot.

“Ianto? Are you okay?” asked Tosh.

“No! It’s like being stalked and groped by Thing!” Ianto complained.

The End

Lol, I feel like you just read my fan-flashworks entry for the same prompt! ;)

Jack's hand is very naughty....

I wrote all my drabbles last Monday, so that was before you posted your fic, which I haven't had time to read yet - I have over 70 short fics and drabbles piled up to read when I have time *sighs*

Jack is naughty, his hand is doing what comes naturally to him ;)

Thank you!

It's scary when we're on the same wavelength! When you read it you'll see what I mean! ;)

Used to be that way with me and timelordshines, lol! We wrote some eerily similar stuff drabble-wise. You know what they say, great minds think alike! *grins*

I haven't seen timelordshines post anything for ages which is a real shame.

Hope you get to catch up on your fics. I'm about twenty challenges behind in reading all the BTBD posts. *sigh*

When writing takes precedence, reading has to take a back seat unfortunately. I'll catch up, I always do, but not this week *looks at fic_promptly* Glad it's only Challenge Week and not Contest Week.

Yeah, she kind of lost her writing mojo and then real life started taking precedence, but she did pop by to comment on one of my fics a few weeks back and we email occasionally. She's doing good.

OMW that line made me laugh so hard i nearly fell off my chair.

Brilliant drabble.

*giggles* Thank you!

Ianto needs to put Jack's detachable hand on a leash so he can keep track of it ;)

He could keep Jack's hand in his pocket, so he knows where it is. Can give it back when needed. Hand will have fun too, wriggling about.

[bk_forever]

Perfect solution, but extremely distracting ;)

Thank you!

hahhahahah Naughty Jack! I'm sure he is having a good time!

[bk_forever]

You bet he is. Ianto, however, is getting paranoid because every time Jack's hand grabs him it startles him.

Thank you!
