Word Count: 301
Fandom: Torchwood
Disclaimer: Property of the BBC
Characters/Pairings: Team Torchwood
Spoilers: None really. Set somewhere vaguely in 02, but before Reset
Warnings: None.
Author's Notes: A little drabble written in about fifteen minutes. Massively unbetaed, all screw-ups mine, and for totally4ryo for challenging me to write it when I said I'd had the idea in my head for ages. Also, not as porn-y as the title suggests.
Jack!" Tosh's voice cut across the relative quiet of the Hub. "Just got a call. Weevil sighting near Cardiff Castle."
Gwen looked over to Toshiko's desk, watching the small, quiet technician looking from screen to screen, taking in as much information as she could. Behind them, Owen put down the instruments he was sterilizing and climbed out from the med bay, wiping his hands on a rag.
Jack came out of his office, settling his coat. Ianto was two steps behind him. "Any injuries?"
"None reported," the Japanese woman reported. "The police have the Castle blocked off."
"Right." Jack held his hand out and Ianto handed over the Captain's Webley. Jack habitually checked it before tucking it into his holster. "Gwen, Owen, with me. Toshiko, Ianto, you two stay here and provide backup and run any interference you need to."
Gwen and Owen grabbed both coats and sidearms. The three were on their way out the door when Ianto's quiet deadpan hit their ears. "Have fun storming the castle."
As one, they turned to look back at the Welshman. He was standing next to Toshiko's workstation, a completely serious look on his face. The corner of Toshiko's mouth twitched upwards when she turned to look at him, but managed to say in a perfectly level voice, "Think it'll work?"
"It would take a miracle," Ianto replied out of the corner of his mouth.
Toshiko's face did split into a grin as she turned back to her coworkers. Both of them raised a hand and chimed in, their voices cheery and bright, "Buh-bye!"
Gwen snickered, her hand coming up to cover the grin on her face. Next to her, Owen rolled his eyes and turned to go up the stairs.
Jack clicked his fingers and pointed sternly at them. "No more movie nights."

Yes, I am a nerd. What of it?
