Reanimates the dead? That one's going in the secure archives!

[badly_knitted]

Totally accidental side-effect, an it's only the illusion of reanimation, not that it makes much difference if you attach it to, say, a stuffed tiger.

Well, except when the need it to move a crashed spaceship or something.... Hell of a lot easier to get it into the truck!

Thank you!

That might come in handy moving some of the heavier Rift debris - as long as it had never been living, of course...

[badly_knitted]

I think it would be useful, and by 'living' Jack means the animal or person end of the spectrum. Something made of wood or wool wouldn't act alive. So as long as it's not attached to a former creature of some kind they'll be okay. Makes me want them to stick it on a giant teddy bear and say "Follow me" ;)

Thank you!

yeah that might just bring up more questions.

great chapter.

[badly_knitted]

Besides, it's uncontrollable when it thinks it's alive, lol! They'd just end up chasing it again.

Thank you!

Gosh, what a sight. Maybe Tosh could Modify the device to cut out the 'think they're alive' factor. What a wonderful exhibition that would be.

[badly_knitted]

Maybe she can, I'm sure Jack will ask ;)

Thank you!

This was cute - ' responsible adult Ianto ' - I love when you do a series for a prompt :)

[badly_knitted]

Thank you!

Sometimes one idea just triggers a series. It doesn't always happen though.

Ianto is so good at being a responsible adult, he sometimes forgets to have fun.
