Rating: PG
Challenge: 609 - Ridiculous at [livejournal.com profile] tw100
Notes: Owen has doubts about the credibility of Tosh's latest cover story. A double drabble.

Owen pinched the bridge of his nose and leaned his elbow on the desk in front of him. 'Really?' he asked.

'What?' Tosh said, sounding surprised by his response.

'You really think people are going to believe that there was a serial killer going around town dressed up in clown make-up?'

She shuffled uncomfortably in her chair. 'Well, it did look a bit like a clown,' she replied, mentally picturing the vicious alien in the moments just before Jack had put two bullets in its head to prevent it from claiming its next victim.

Owen groaned his disappointment at her. 'You're losing your touch, Tosh. You used to be good at this. We're gonna have to start giving the cover stories to Ianto to make up at this rate.'

Tosh frowned in abject disappointment. 'It wasn't that bad, was it?' Didn't Owen appreciate how hard it was to continually need to come up with plausible facts to feed to the media and the general public?

'Tosh!' Jack's voice boomed from his office. 'When am I getting the cover story for creepy clown guy? My phone hasn't stopped ringing for the past half hour!'

She grinned. 'See? Even Jack thinks so.'

Owen needs to stop being a backseat driver. Tosh knows what she's doing when it comes to cover stories.
