Your quasi-daily Torchwood drabble. This one was inspired by conversation with gileonnen. Like the others, not spoilery itself (unless you count S1 references as spoilers, which I really, really don't at this point), but requires knowledge through 2x07 to make sense.



Getting bounced into the recent past was - pointless, at best. At least Owen had worked it out before running into himself. Or Jack (especially Jack), or anyone, really, except Ianto. Ianto was sensible. He understood that the less he knew about even the near future, the better. He didn't ask why Owen didn't eat, or why Owen was perfectly comfortable in the depths of Torchwood without even a bed.

He didn't ask why, when he found Owen emerging from Lisa's hidden room, Owen just squeezed his shoulder and said, "This fuckin' place, yeah?" and kept walking.

Ooh, a little creepy; very in-character, though, which is the bit that I love about your Torchwood drabbles.

Thanks! You'll see more of this universe. It's been growing in my head since I wrote this drabble. I already know exactly what displaced time traveller!Owen did during the year that wasn't.
