These were very cute! I like Gwen as the stripper-cop. :-)

"AN: I tried to give everyone equal time but if there seemed to be more Owen than other people, well, that may be true... He needs a little love :)"

No he doesn't! (to be truthful, I don't like Owen, but the drabbles were very enjoyable)

I'd love to know just what Jack, Ianto and Owen were caught doing in the first one.

Heh, I'd think being able to look at Jack would be worth more than more pay, more benefits, etc... at least some of the time, it would be. *grin*

Hee! Love the last one, with Jack having to sing, and Owen recognizing songs from musicals. I only knew the "Marry Me A Little" because I saw JB sing it in Putting It Together when it aired on a station I get, in April.

If you want concrit, you should put all the titles you used in italics, Die Hard, Gardener's World and Harry Potter (or put quote marks around them, but you did put HP in italics once, so go with italics). Also, 'alright' should always be "all right".

*g* I honestly think part of the reason I love Owen is because everyone else hates him! Glad it didn't stop you from enjoying the fic though :)

I'm actually kind of curious myself what the boys were up to... And yes, Ianto thinks it's worth it to, most days. Because, you know, Jack. I would love to see Putting it Together, but if it's been on UK TV, they haven't advertised it well. I didn't know he sang 'Marry me a Little' on it though - he sings 'Being Alive' on the album, but I think he was the lead in a run of 'Company', wasn't he?

(Oh, and concrit is always welcome, thank you! I hope it's all fixed now.) Thank you!

Heh, to each their own. If he hadn't shot Jack (and not even just once, but three times!), I might be able to enjoy watching him sometimes, but that, and what he did in the first episode just completely ruined him as a character for me. Glad you enjoy him, though.

"I'm actually kind of curious myself what the boys were up to..."

Expand it!!! Expand it!!!!!!! I'd also love to know why Jack couldn't talk their way out of whatever it was, since he usually seems able to do that.

I believe Putting It Together has been released on DVD in the U.K. *runs off and checks amazon.co.uk* Well, make that, you can buy it from amazon, but you'd need to be able to play a Region 1 DVD.

I know JB played Bobby in a production of Company and if you check youtube.com, you can hear both "Company" and "Being Alive", and if you type in Barrowman Burnett in a search, you can see the hilarious blooper from ( ... )

*sighs* Oh, my Amazon wishlist is so extraordinarily long. And currently full of Sondheim!

"If he hadn't shot Jack (and not even just once, but three times!)"
He apologised? *G* My ability to handwave things about my characters is legendary. Comes of being a Spike (Buffy) fan, I think.

I loved these! Funny, imaginative and with great one-liners. Gwen with the handcuffs was priceless, and Jack's singing? *sigh* Lovely stuff.

*g* I'm glad someone that isn't me thinks they're funny... And Jack had to sing, once I knew what I was writing. Given that he's was my iTunes accompaniment the whole way through it! And I'm glad Gwen read okay - I'm not very used to her POV. Thank you for the comment :)

*g* I just really love Ianto's snarkiness. You just know he spends most of the day restraining himself from saying things... Thank you for the feedback, I'm really glad you enjoyed!

Very funny, and inventive, I love the team generally irritating all the inhabitants of the universe...and the alien trying to headhunt Ianto, and saving the day with musicals, all sorts of win.

:) Thank you! The nice thing about fic, and vaguely cracky fic in particular, is you can invent all sorts of random reasons for aliens to be on earth and annoyed with Torchwood, without needing any kind of plot to it. It's great! And if you were an alien, and landed in Torchwood, would you ever not try and make off with Ianto?

I love random reasons for aliens to be on earth, and you're right there are so many of them in Torchwood. Also, definitely yes I'd try and make off with Ianto at the first opportunity.
