well done and a good use of a painful prompt

Thank you! I really wanted to write about Tosh. That scene in Fragments, as she builds the Sonic Modulator - you just know it's not going to end well, but she's desperate and more afraid for her mother than for herself. It just seemed to fit, no matter what she does she can't win.

Loved it! Tosh is another of the silent and most cherished character! Pity she did not get more action inthe series!

I can really see her thinking that!

Thank you, I think that was a defining moment for Tosh's character, which makes it all the more ridiculous that we only found out about it just before she died. The characters were never properly explored until they were about to die, except for Gwen.

It is nice to see Tosh starring in a drabble. We dont see enough of her.
I like how you finished this off. Very nice :-)
You would have finished it without my beta - I only added a couple of words!

You got me thinking again and nudged me in the right direction, I probably would have abandoned it otherwise and tried something else.

There isn't enough about Tosh, I really need to do more drabbles about her. I'll try in future, she's a very under-used character, which is a shame.

Thank you!

Ooo. Poor Tosh. She was really stuck with that choice. The things we do for loved ones.

[badly_knitted]

Thank you.

It was such a complicated situation. I got the sense that she loved what she was doing, building the Sonic Modulator, even though she was fully aware of how dangerous it was, but it was also something she had to do in an attempt to save her mother, even knowing the likely consequences for herself. It was her duty as a daughter.

Excellent drabble. (You stole my idea Wah!!!)

0.0 Sorry! Hope you'll still write yours! There's always the need for more Tosh drabbles.

Thank you.
