Spoilers: None at all.
Summary: Working for Torchwood, you never know what you’ll find yourself having to do.
Disclaimer: I don’t own Torchwood, or the characters.
Ianto picked up a bit of meat with a pair of long metal tweezers and poked it towards the nest.
“Here, have a bit of rat. Mmmm, juicy rat!”
It was quickly gobbled up.
“Have another bit of rat! Make you grow big and strong. Hopefully.”
That was quickly gobbled up too.
“More rat?”
“How’s it going?” Jack asked quietly, settling down beside Ianto.
“She's eaten almost a whole rat,” Ianto replied. “You can do the next feed. Never thought we’d be foster parents to a de-aged pteranodon!”
“We got lucky. At least we’re not having to incubate an egg.”
The End

Date: 2013-02-24 02:14 pm (UTC)This isn't what I planned to write (I realised my first idea was boring), and it didn't start out as Myfanwy either - it was originally an unknown alien - but pretty much everyone on Torchwood has been de-aged at some point so I figured Myf could have her turn, lol!
Thank you! I agree, the prompts recently have been tough. The first two weeks of the year were easy, but since then I've struggled to get one drabble a week.

Thank you!

that was cute!

Date: 2013-02-27 11:19 pm (UTC)I haven't written anything for this week yet because my brain is being eaten by migraine demons, but I have a couple of ideas. i think I like this week's prompt!

I wanted to write a pheromone based one for the next prompt but it's already been done now.
I have another idea though but haven't got time to write it just yet as I finally got an idea yesterday for my h/c February challenge fic.
Got until midnight tomorrow to finish it. I'm just over half way now at nearly 3000 words.

Date: 2013-02-28 01:32 pm (UTC)Just because a pheromone fic has been written doesn't rule it out - just depends on how you use it, and there are plenty of different ways.
My head feels better today - I think. I'm not awake enough to be certain, lol!

Date: 2013-03-08 09:01 pm (UTC)It has rats????
Hub?
argh .... there are rats in the HUB????
Well, I should not be surprised, the Hub is very large, underground, near the water.
But, even with all the alien technology, they have not found effective exterminator??
I feel that if there is one species that you will find anywhere in the space, are rats and cockroaches ....
I also understand that Ianto did not give eat with mutton or beef. it could get messy when Myfanwy is great.

Date: 2013-03-08 09:55 pm (UTC)I must admit, I used rats because I was annoyed by drain problems bringing rats to the surface in my garden. 50 years here and I'd never once seen a rat before so I took revenge in fic form!
Thank you! Sorry to horrify you!

Date: 2013-05-09 06:06 pm (UTC)Sometimes new prompts inspire sequels to older drabbles. Can you believe I've written 75 drabbles? o.O
