Drabble: Frippery

location: my room
mood: busy
music: tv

Title: Frippery

Author: badly_knitted

Characters: Tosh, mentions Jack

Rating: G

Written For: Challenge 329 – Chiffon at tw100

Spoilers: Nada.

Summary: Tosh longs for a beautiful dress.

Disclaimer: I don’t own Torchwood, or the characters.







It was foolish frippery, the kind of dress Tosh would likely never have occasion to wear, yet she couldn’t take her eyes off it. Floating layers of chiffon in several shades of purple flowed from a simple bodice to sweep the floor. It was made for dancing. Sighing, she turned away, putting it out of her mind, until Jack told her they’d been invited to UNIT’s New Year party.



Stepping into the ballroom, skirts drifting weightlessly around her legs, she felt like a princess.



Frippery it might be, but it was worth everything to see the look on Owen’s face!



The End

Among other things! If he didn't love her before, he will buy the time the ball is over!

Thank you!

Tosh would look good in anything, even in a potato sack. :D

While that's true, an elegant dress is far more flattering of her figure!

Thank you!

I agree, she is just beautiful and graceful. Gwen would be envious!

Oh yes, and all the other men at the ball as well, regardless of whether they're married or single. Everyone wants to dance with Tosh!

Thank you!
