Drabbles offered to good homes

[jadesfire]

I am immensely chuffed today as "Coming Back" has been recced on crack_van. It's so lovely - the list is full of great writers and I always bounce to see my name among them! My Housefic "They Also Serve" was recced there a while back, so I'm feeling rather proud of myself :) Now all I have to do is write a Criminal Minds one to match them... ;)

In a burst of creativity, I'm offering drabbles/ficlets to all requestors. Any fandom (see my interests list), any pairing. I'm rather bouncy as The Wandering Years stopped wandering and started behaving themselves so come share the bounciness! I don't promise they'll be the same quality as fallen_arazil's, but I can try. :)

Also, rivers_bend told us to consider ourselves tagged...



1. I can play both the descant and the treble recorders (not at the same time) to a fairly decent standard.

2. I can't wash my hair in the shower because I've got horribly sensitive skin and the shampoo makes me itch.

3. I used to be able to say thank you in 45 languages. I think I'm down to about 25 now.

4. I can type around 80 words a minute.

5. Baked beans make me feel sick.

6. I own a Beanie Buddy duck called Mr Pond, who lives on my computer hard drive at work. He was a 21st birthday present.

Like river, I hate tagging people, but love random facts, so post away!

I had to drag Ianto back from emo!land for this. Hope you like it.

Sporting Heroes

"What, not ever?"

"Mam…" Ianto closed his eyes.

"What?"

"It's fine." Naseem put a reassuring hand on Ianto's. "Actually, I was on the college football team."

"Not cricket then?"

"Sorry."

"Sdim ots. We can't all be good at everything. Coffee, did you say?"

When she was gone, Ianto smiled apologetically.

"Don't worry." Nas squeezed his hand. "That's the least I expected."

"You're too understanding," Ianto grumbled, glancing towards the kitchen. "She's always like this."

"I like her."

Before Ianto could reply to this clear sign of insanity, his Mam stuck her head round the door. "Have you thought about boxing?"


(for the non-Welsh speakers: Sdim ots = it doesn't matter

Wheee! Lovely *hugs you*

Naseem is one of my faves, and is that my Ianto's mam?

*pats angst-free Ianto*

Of course it's your Ianto's mam - who else is it going to be? :D She's just too much fun!

See, I didn't reply because I was writing it ;) glad you liked!

*hugs back*

Yay, Ianto's mam is fab. Glad you used her :D

I'm going to pinch this and stick it on my LJ if you don't mind, just cos I love it so much. It will make no sense to anyone but me and you, but that's okay :D :D

Of course I don't mind! *is flattered* :)

I'm going to compile them into one post once I'm done, but I'll mark this as being part of the Mindreading ficverse. It's always fun to play in other people's worlds :)
