Title: Play with Me
Characters: Team
Word count: 100
Challenge: tw100 prompt: Fancy words. Words used: Baldenfreude, Antediluvian, Solipsistic, Renminbi
Rating/Warning: PG

“Baldenfreude” said Ianto.

“Three points,” replied Tosh, “Antediluvian.”

“Oh, nice; five points. Solipsistic.” Ianto returned with a grin.

“Sneaky. Four and a half. Renminbi.” retorted Tosh.

“What are they doing?” Jack asked, wandering over.

“Playing one of their ‘who’s the cleverest’ games.” answered Owen.

The three watched the game for a moment longer.

“How do they score?”

“We have no idea” Gwen said.

“Who’s winning?”

“Not a clue.”

“What do all those words mean?”

Owen turned his attention away from the continuing game, “Face it Jack. We don’t know, we’ll never know. And that’s why they don’t play with us.”

LOL! Ok - so I did have to look up one word - so what of it (snark).

[jooles34.livejournal.com]

Meh, I had to look up two, I bow to you. They were just the most fun sounding in the list, not chosen for meaning at all!

[emyrldlady.livejournal.com]

*hangs head in shame* I had to look up 2 words.

[jooles34.livejournal.com]

So did I. Words were chosen purely on fun sounding merit rather than meaning!

I like that. I really feel that Tosh & Ianto are the great "lost" pairing of Torchwood. They would have been so great together and I think you show that here.

Thank you! I am so sure that Tosh and Ianto would put the others to shame. Glad you liked it.

[rustydog.livejournal.com]

Ahhh! I love it. I can totally see them doing something like that, and stumping the others. Bravo.

[jooles34.livejournal.com]

Tosh & Ianto, the great unexplored friendship! I love the others standing around with looks of blank incomprehension on their faces, trying (and failing) to work out what they're on about. Always knew those two were the smartest =)

[jooles34.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much. I have always thought these two were the smartest and must have been good friends, having their own little "things". Nice to see you think so too. Only problem is, I haven't worked out the rules to their game yet either, so I'd be with the blank face crew...

Glad you liked this and thanks for commenting.

[bk_forever]

I'd be right there with you - I thought I was good with words, but I haven't read the complete and unabridged dictionary and those two obviously have! Even if I knew the rules I wouldn't stand a chance!
