Jack's Treasures
Title: Jack's Treasures
Pairing/Rating/Warning: none, rated G
Word Count: 100
Summary: Trinkets or treasures, they are what Jack holds dear
The old cigar box sits open on the desk, displaying its treasures for the world. Inside there’s a key, kept shiny and bright despite its obvious age. A photo of two young lovers, frozen forever in each other’s gaze. A single cufflink, dull and scratched. Several newspaper articles, brittle and faded. And a small ashtray, made out of clay by tiny hands, fingerprints still noticeable on the sides.
Ianto has seen the box, and its contents, many times; whether Jack leaves it out by accident or design he doesn’t know. But he knows he’ll never have the courage to ask.

I find drabbles are really good when I don't have much time to write, and can do them and post them and feel as if I've written something when I don't have time or energy to work on a larger story.

Yes, and that's fun. You can explore bits of characterization, and sometimes one idea leads to another.
I still have no idea how my most recent fic morphed into nearly 12,000 words!
They do that sometimes, and when they do, there's no stopping the momentum. I look forward to it!
