That was cute. I haven't seen the Borrowers, but I think I get the gist. Thanks for sharing.

[badly_knitted]

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it!

I've seen bits and pieces of the various series and part of the film, but never watched from beginning to end, lol!

Oh what a great story and well done on finnishing your bingo squares.

[badly_knitted]

Thank you! I love this story =)

I've posted my bingo claim, just got to wait now and see if it gets approved. I know for a fact that I screwed up some of the tagging, but I hope the rest works!

WHOOP! YOU'RE ALL DONE!

XD And this was a great, successful conclusion to Yet Another Strange Day At Work. Torchwood has every shrink, office-worker, and waiter/ress beat when it comes to strange work stories.

It's a good thing Jack insisted on going first! If Ianto had gone first, it definitely would have malfunctioned!

[badly_knitted]

Yeah, Jack is very Ianto-safety conscious, he'd rather take the risks himself so Ianto is okay.

Torchwood has a rather unique set of workplace hazards, nowhere else even comes close. Glad you enjoyed Jack and Ianto's bizarre adventure =)

I'm so glad to be finished! Now I can catch up with my reading and take my time with writing. I have some betaing to do too, so I'll start that tomorrow. For today, I need to post a drabble and write a couple if I can, got to keep writing even if it's at a slower rate. I wrote 51,332 words for the bingo! Not all of that was in one month though, a few were done and/or posted before this month. However, I've kept up with the drabbles and with the challenges at fan_flashworks too, so I've been doing okay!

Thank you for your support and help! *hugs*

[lilyrose225]

I would too, if I were in Jack's position. Ianto is very accident-prone. Danger follows him around. It's a good thing he's a badass.

You did a really good job this month! Everything was written well and on time, and was entertaining to boot. I only wish I'd signed on sooner! *hugs back*

[badly_knitted]

Well, at least now I know where to find you if I need another pair of eyes on something!

It was hard, but I'm glad I did it. Next round I'll not leave things to the last minute.

I'd be protective of Ianto too, he's worth preserving.

Congratulations on completing the Blackout Bingo! That's an incredible achievement that few ever manage to pull off. You should be very proud. AND you kept posting drabbles and fan_flashworks the whole time you were writing your Bingo entries--you are truly inspiring. :)

I would hardly call this a beta-ing "monster"--I barely had to do anything. I'm glad I could help, however, even in some small way. :)

*HUGS*

[badly_knitted]

It's the second longest piece I wrote for the bingo, so it's a monster, lol! I made a few adjustments in the finasl edit for places where I seemed to contradict myself, but I didn't change much. You were a huge help, figuring out where to split it for the three prompts! And catching the bit about the phones too.

The only way I managed to keep up with all the challenges was to neglect the housework. Now I have to catch up with all the laundry o_O I also have piles of reading to do and two fics to beta for other people. My writing will slow down now. I do have another 6 (I think) drabbles for the current challenge waiting to be posted though... I had wallaby trouble. You stick a random wallaby in a drabble and then you can't get rid of it!

Thank you!

You stick a random wallaby in a drabble and then you can't get rid of it!

That has to be the best sentence I've read all day. Maybe all week. :)

[badly_knitted]

*grins* Thank you!

Sadly, it's true. This series WAS just going to be 4 parts, but because of the amazing self-adhesive wallaby, I ended up with another 5 with the option for more. o_O

'Owen meets the Wallaby' is begging to be written, but this challenge is bound to end soon.

I loved that! And we have Murray, another Torchwood pet...

Poor Jack and Ianto, and now Tosh gets to see what really happened, but she's less likely to make a big deal out of it. That's gonna be an interesting conversation!

Thanks for all of the wonderful fics you put up. Amazing job!

[badly_knitted]

Murray is a hero!

Tosh needed to see what the machine did to them, how it affected them. She won't tell the others, but she'll use the kmnowledge to handle their new acquisition safely.

Thank you, I'm exhausted! Next thing to do is post another drabble...
