torchwood100Summary: Jack knows better than to let his team dabble with dangerous tech. A double drabble.
‘Don't touch that!’ Jack yelled as he spotted his team gathering around the item collected earlier that morning on a nearby rift retrieval.
‘What? Is the safety off or something?’ Owen asked, looking disappointed that Jack hadn't given him the green light to play with it. What boy could resist something that was clearly a giant gun?
‘As if Jack would leave a weapon in an unsafe state,’ Tosh scolded, but looking equally eager to play with it, albeit for different reasons. It was impressive at over two feet long, all muted silver and gleaming. Maybe it was laser driven or even sonic. Whatever it was, it looked super cool. She was dying to know more about its specifications and capabilities. Purely for scientific interests sake.
‘It’s not for use,’ Jack told them bluntly, gathering it into his arms and carrying it across to the weapons store when he unlocked a secure cupboard and set it inside. ‘It's got a vicious recoil on it.’
Owen snorted. ‘So do about half our guns.’
‘Well if you want to be flung back into the middle of last week in front of oncoming traffic then be my guest and knock yourself out. Literally.’
