torchwood100Summary: Owen is plagued by memories of a physical exam gone wrong. A double drabble.
Owen gave Myfanwy the evil eye as he tugged on his rubber gloves, making a satisfying snapping noise. ‘You’d better not be thinking you’re going to give me any of that bad-tempered attitude like last time,’ he warned.
He still had a small scar on the side of his hand that had never fully healed over when she’d taken a bite at his hand. Granted, he’d had his other hand somewhere no doctor on Earth had ever had their hand, but she’d been showing all the signs of an unpleasant STD and Ianto had been fussing like an old woman until Owen could confirm a diagnosis and start treatment.
Myfanwy watched Owen’s every move with a cautious glare, keeping her wings slightly unfurled, ready to make a getaway at the first sign of trouble. Yeah, she remembered last time alright.
‘Here birdie, birdie, birdie…’ Myfanwy hopped from one foot to the other, inching backwards. Why wasn’t this Ianto’s job, anyway? He did everything else. Probably looked after her better than he did everyone else.
Myfanwy lunged forward with her long neck and snapped near Owen's hand.
‘Oh, big mistake. Now you get to find out how bad-tempered I can be.’
