Title: Aces and Eights
Author: joonscribble
Rating: standard
Length: oneshot
Pairing(s)/Character(s): Owen
Genre/Category: character study
Warnings: none
Spoilers: Fragments, Cyberwoman
Summary: Owen imagined years from now they’d all be getting a drawer. If they were lucky and even left a body behind, what with how things usually went for Torchwood employees.

Why you should read it: Owen, especially season 1 Owen, is frequently described as a prat, a wanker or an all and out jerk. And he is. But is he is also a man capable of quiet mercies and this story is about one of them. It's also a lovely post-Cyberwoman fragment. Joonscribble, as always, writes wonderfully well, creating history and characterization with a few well chosen words and a beautiful grasp of language. Not the least of all, this is a very nice story about and with Owen, always to be treasured.
