Torchwood Drabbles: Leather, Stars

It’s [personal profile] moth2fic’s birthday this Sunday. Usually I offer people three drabbles of their choice as a present, but for her three just isn’t enough.

For those of you who don’t know, [personal profile] moth2fic has been like my saving grace over the last nine months or so. She’s moved me and my numerous material possessions twice, let me live with her rent free when I needed a place, donated me all sorts of stuff from desks to coffeemakers, given me paid employment, and generally just been a truly amazing friend.

For that and much more, [personal profile] moth2fic gets TEN DRABBLES for her birthday. She requested drabbles in five different fandoms, which is why I’m spreading them out throughout the week. The first two are below.

Titles = [personal profile] moth2fic’s prompts.


Torchwood – Ianto/Jack – R

Leather

“Shhh.” Jack's fingers are surprisingly gentle, soothing through his hair. “There’s no hurry.”

Ianto sighs, his hands slowing down, tracing the supple length of Jack’s belt where it curves around his waist. He presses his open mouth against the buckle; licks over the sharp taste of metal, tongue slipping into the dark gaps in between. Above him Jack makes a sound low in his throat, hips jerking forward.

He’d expected fast, no-time-for-second-thoughts fast, but it’s better this way; every movement careful and calculated, every touch deliberate. Ianto breathes in the heady, slick smell of leather, letting Jack set the pace.

 


Torchwood – Ianto/Jack – G


Stars

Ianto huddles deeper into his suit jacket, the night air biting through the thin material with ease. The rooftop is slippery with frost as he walks over to Jack.

Above them the sky is endless and full of life. It doesn’t make Ianto feel small, just lucky. “Which one is yours?” he asks, head turned up toward the millions of pinpricks of light.

The silence stretches for a few seconds and then he feels a touch at the nape of his neck, Jack’s fingers brushing slowly against the exposed skin.

“This one,” Jack says, and Ianto can tell he’s smiling.

Brilliant, as always. I'm a huge fan of well-written drabbles and you, my friend, never fail to deliver. I wish you had 365 friends.

Thank you very much, glad you enjoyed.

They are both gorgeous. You are so talanted:-)

[identity profile] kat-lair.livejournal.com 2007-10-18 03:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh my, thank you! *blushes*

[identity profile] claudia-writes.livejournal.com 2007-10-18 06:44 am (UTC)(link)
You make me want to cry. And then be really really jealous of you talent.

[identity profile] kat-lair.livejournal.com 2007-10-18 03:20 pm (UTC)(link)
awww, don't cry! *offers tissue* And thank you very much. You should know that I totally recced "Precious Things" and the accompanying the DVD commentary to someone who was interested in Guy/Marian, so no need for jealousy...

The first one is very very hawt, and the second one just made me want to pat the boys on the head, bless.

[identity profile] kat-lair.livejournal.com 2007-10-18 03:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Hee... well with a prompt like "leather" there's only so many directions my mind goes... And thank you very much. I'm slightly boggled drabbles are generating this many comments... don't you people have lives?

[identity profile] pushkin666.livejournal.com 2007-10-18 08:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Of course we have lives, but the lovely thing about drabbles is they don't take up time, and they can be much better than a, for example, 6000 word fic, when they're done well. And these were. And yeah leather and the very many directions.

Gorgeous. I love Jack's preference for high places; I always wish I had the courage to go that high. Beautifully done drabbles.

[identity profile] kat-lair.livejournal.com 2007-10-18 09:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Thank you very much, I'm really pleased you liked these. Of course it doesn't hurt that Jack on a roof top lends itself to some gorgeous cinematography.

[identity profile] moth2fic.livejournal.com 2007-10-19 05:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh!!!!! Those are beautiful!! And it isn't my birthday till Sunday!!!!

Duly saved to gloat over again and again. Thank you!!

"This one," Jack says...
