Title: What’s This?
Author: badly_knitted
Characters: Ianto, Owen.
Rating: G
Written For: Challenge 417: Slice at tw100.
Spoilers: Nada.
Summary: There are many ways of identifying alien tech…
Disclaimer: I don’t own Torchwood, or the characters.





Cataloguing everything in the archives was slow going. Whenever Ianto couldn’t identify something he had to take it upstairs and ask Jack if he knew what it was.


Naturally, when he appeared in the main Hub everyone demanded coffee, so putting the latest device down he set about making some.


“How much longer?” Owen complained, leaning on the counter. “And what’s this? Looks like part of a lightsaber!” Picking the device up, Owen waved it around, accidentally pressing a small button. With a whooshing sound, he sliced clean through the kitchen table.


“Oops!”


Ianto sighed. “Apparently it’s a laser knife.”

And minus one hundred for playing with something he couldn't identify and risking everyone's life. What it he'd swung it at Ianto?

Thank you!

Glad he only sliced the table in half lol.

Great drabble.

Yes, he got lucky, he could have killed someone messing about like that!

Thank you!

After the scalpel you'd think Owen would have learned his lesson.Just as well it wasn't Gwen. She WOULD have swung it at Ianto.

This is probably pre-scalpel, maybe even pre-Gwen, since Ianto is still in the early stages of archive-sorting, but it proves that even after this, Owen doesn't learn!

Thank you!
