Tosh needs love. In my head cannon, she didn't die and had a nice happily ever after with Ianto.

[badly_knitted]

I'm still trying to pair her off with Owen, because Jack and Ianto are my forever pairing, lol! I've always seen Ianto and Tosh as really good friends though, and I'm not averse to Ianto/Jack/Tosh - I think she'd really enjoy that!

Thanks for the inspiration, I had no ideas for a second drabble this week until I read your reply to my comment!

[in_motu_proprio]

Oh, no. I meant that Ianto would have a happily ever after like Tosh, not with Tosh. Though I do like Jack/Tosh/Ianto. Or Jack/Ianto/Tosh... or Tosh/Jack/Ianto... any way you slice it, delicious.

Glad to have provided some inspiration.

Ah! I seem to be making a habit of misunderstanding people lately - probably because it's nearly midnight and I'm half asleep, lol!

She could certainly have some fun with two attentive boys - who knows, maybe Owen would get jealous and finally notice her.

Beautiful drabble. Tosh never got her due.

[badly_knitted]

Thank you!

I think Jack was quite protective of her, he wanted her to be happy, but everything seemed to conspire against her.

This is so sweet and so true for Tosh!

[badly_knitted]

Thank you. I just wish Tosh had found true happiness. At least Jack could see her worth even if no one else bothered.

Nice. Very nice.

[badly_knitted]

Thank you =)

I literally had no ideas for a second drabble, but one comment from a fellow drabbler and I knew exactly what I wanted to write.

Really beautiful drabble! I always found it unfair, that Tosh never got her due or was recognized by Owen. There she was, right under his nose, but he just didn't see her, it is so sad...

[badly_knitted]

Thank you! I agree, Tosh was so amazing and I wanted her to find happiness, but instead she was killed off. It was an incredibly moving and corageous end for her, but still, she deserved to have happiness with someone who truly loved her and all she got was a broken heart.
