He asks me if I know what I’m doing.  Damn tea boy.  Of course I do.  You flip this switch and then twist that lever and voilá!  Wait.  It’s not supposed to hiss like that.  At least I don’t think it is. 

And it never starts to glow when Jack uses it. 

Shit.

The next thing I know I’m lying on the floor and Jack and Ianto are talking about me like I’m not even there.

“What possessed Owen to touch a Korellian laser?  Was he drunk?  Under the influence of something?”

“Only terminal stupidity, Sir.”

Very funny. 

Stupid gits.

Ah, interesting. Someone else mentioned basically the same thing on another piece I wrote in the first person. It's much harder to write 1st person, especially in any remotely believeable way.

I bet it is. You've done it well here, you got Owen's voice down so that I would have known who it was without his name being in it.
