The Torchwood Drabble Files by badly_knitted
Summary: A collection of drabbles, mostly based on the weekly prompts at tw100. Mostly Jack/Ianto as that's what I write, but no doubt other Torchwood characters will pop in from time to time. All genres are possible, but expect mainly humour and fluff, because that's usually what comes out when I write. All are 100 words exactly in Word, but apparently not here!

Chapter 75: Everyone Has Them
Author's Notes: New prompt! Yay!
My first drabble for Challenge 282 – Parents at tw100. I couldn't think what to write for this one, then I got two ideas in quick succession. This one is my second idea, but I decided to post it first and leave the funny one for tomorrow...
Summary: Everyone has them, but all are differentâ¦
Parents. Everyone has them.
Gwen’s are loving, caring, devoted to their only child.
Jack’s are long gone, yet at the same time haven’t even been born yet. As much a paradox as he is.
Tosh seldom gets to see hers; part of the deal made by Jack in order to free her from the UNIT prison.
Ianto’s are dead. A father too demanding and a mother too weak to shield him from his father’s temper.
As for Owen, he doesn’t even remember his father, and wishes he could forget the look on his mother’s face the day he turned sixteen…
The End
