(no subject)

Note to self: A drabble is a short piece of writing. A hundred words, if you're a purist, a bit more or a bit less if you're not. It is not, repeat, not, a thousand words of rambling fic with no end in sight. This is why you never finish anything. Because you let them grow huge and unmanageable and start having visions of the thousands more words they need to be done.

Also, a request for tormented Jack/Ianto? Doesn't really mean crackfic about Ianto tormenting Jack with the tightness of his trousers. NO REALLY.

*sighs*

So, there might be some Torchwood fic in the near future. And some self-flagellation. *flogs self*

"I'm just going to get this drabble done and then I'll make dinner" are my partner's cue words to order in a takewaway now.

I feel your pain...

It is also an admirable excuse for procrastination. :)

EXCUSE ME?

It's probably too late for me to try it now, but I was going to do a TW100 drabble for 'under the influence' about Jack jumping Ianto because he has a drop of melted icecream on his lip. Porn hive brain HO!

It probably wouldn't have fitted into 100 words anyway.

There's no reason you couldn't write that anyway. Even if it goes beyond 100 words. Especially if it goes beyond 100 words. *g*

Tell you what, you write a pornlet of that and I'll post some tormenting-with-tight-trousers fic? :P

EXCUSE ME? YES, REALLY!

Definitely seconded. XD

Hehee. Ianto's tight traousers seem to have a strange effect on people. :)

I blame it on [livejournal.com profile] spacedye_vest. She sent me so many pics of Ianto wearing tight trousers that... well, I couldn't remain insensitive to it. *g*

If that's my request for tormenting? Tightness of trousers works admirably!!!! :)

It is indeed. I had this whole plan about doing something about Jack coming back and Ianto being conflicted and refusing to sleep with him, and much angst and pining...but apparently Ianto thinks he's being hilarious just by wearing extra tight trousers.

Sorry, my brain likes to think its humorous. *smiles sheepishly*

Wonderful news! This entry just made my day :)

Heh, thank you!

Ah, I recognise that problem! Hope you get some of the writing under control soon.

Clearly what I need is a stopwatch to keep me under control. ;)
