Awww. Arguing over whose eyes get to match Ianto's bedroom. I love it!

The Andy/Ianto story made me teary. Having lost my own dad less than a year ago, I can totally relate to how certain things can suddenly and unexpectedly make me think of him.

[tanarian]

*grin* Hey, that was you! I just picked up on it. (And there will probably be another couple or three of stories - that was one hell of a prompt!

Smell is the sneakiest of the senses. But yes, you can get blindsided without warning.

The first one was perfect! Andy working at Torchwood, and Ianto's memories (very similar to my own), I loved it!

And the other two were good as well :-)

[tanarian]

Thank you! I'm glad it worked for you. That's always important. I seem to be ringing the changes with the emotions with these prompts.

[vipersweb]

aw... Ianto and Andy's bit was so poignant.

The others were also quite well done and cute and funny. The last one was adorable!

[tanarian]

I would really like them to bring Andy in and have him and Ianto have this kind of friendship. It would be so good for Ianto. But I'm glad you liked them all and yes, I had fun doing that last one!

I love the second one. *has a thing for stories à la Everybody desperately tries to kill the evil aliens, and fails horribly, until Ianto saves Earth by negotiating a trade agreement.* The world should be saved more often with a long-suffering sigh, an eye-roll, and a Welsh-accented "If you'll allow me, sir

[tanarian]

Tch, you need happy pills, m'girl! *grin* And yes, Ianto has saved the earth from a horrible fate almost as many times as the Doctor, and without cheating by travelling in time and regenerating ten times!

But you really need those happy pills.... Mind you, I'm probably going to make you very happy (?) when I get to your prompt!

[des_pudels_kern]

I just can't help it! Spent all of today being happy and cheery and bubbly, because we had our pre-excavation meeting, and we might be able to squeeze in a daytrip to Damascus this campagn, and the weather is awesome, and I had strawberries, and went to Ikea, and got a postcard, and had nice drabbles on my fpage,... and then I wrote that comment.
*headdesks*
I can see angst and still be happy? I nawwww over emo, and squee over h/c. As long as I don't see deathfic everywhere I go, there's nothing to worry about.

*waits patiently* I did mention that I don't insist on it being 100 words, didn't I? Otherwise I'm telling you now.

[tanarian]

I did mention that I don't insist on it being 100 words, didn't I? Otherwise I'm telling you now.

Oh, that's a relief because it's only 42 words long....

Heh, angsty enough for you? *runs away very fast*

[penguin_house]

The first one was so bitter-sweet, the third one was great as well. Though my favourite is the 2nd, purely because the alien sounded like he could be one of the clangers (or is that just me?)

[tanarian]

Nope, it's not just you. I wasn't sure people would catch it, but I underestimated my flist. *pats flist*
