Drabble: Burnt Offerings

Title: Burnt Offerings

Author: [livejournal.com profile] badly_knitted

Characters: Ianto, Jack

Rating: G

Written For: Challenge 283 – Out Of The Frying Pan, Into The Fire at [livejournal.com profile] tw100

Spoilers: Nada.

Summary: Ianto still doesn’t like camping…

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

A/N: I apologise – this was all I could think of when I read the prompt…






Ianto gingerly poked a stick into the campfire, rolling a charred sausage towards him. When it was close enough, he stabbed it with a fork and deposited it on a plate with several other sausage-shaped cinders.



He glared at Jack.



“I hope you’re not expecting these to be edible.”



“Sorry.” Jack looked sheepish.



“What on earth possessed you to try flipping sausages?”



“I saw a chef doing it on TV. He looked really cool, tossing and catching them. I thought I could do it.”



Ianto groaned. “No more TV, you’re too easily influenced.”



“At least we still have the beans!”



The End

Do I make the 'bloody beans' remark now, or later? *laughs*

Well I'm sure they can find some other tasty sausages to enjoy!

And I am sure the beans will go down so well if they share a tent LOL.

Hope they don't eat too much beans, or they might want separate tents! *giggles*

That last line is pur genius :-)

Don't worry, I'm sure Jack will make sure Ianto gets a sausage, of sorts ;-)

ROFL! Nice, literal interpretation of the phrase, which serves just as well to make one miserable as the more figurative versions, I see!

Loved how you worked in the beans. :)

Perhaps Torchwood Jack and Coat Jack are in too much competition over whose ensemble looks better to really get along? I'm sure the new Ianto will help them settle down. He's great at soothing ruffled egos and I'm sure he'll love them both!

Awesome use of prompt!! Great job! I love the thought of these two camping - just them and quiet and well = you know... lol

Not beans again???!!!

I know other people already said it but I have to say it or I'll explode! BLOODY BEANS!

Very cute! =)

Hasn't Jack ever seen Blazing Saddles?

poor, poor Ianto!
Jack is really a great kid.
LOL
remains beans ... it reminds me of something I want to forget.
