@canspotatimeagent – Lily-Moira Mathews (Harkness) starter.
The blonde stalks away from the man, clearly angry. She looked like him but in a not so obvious way, tho if you put them side by side, you could see that they had the same blue eyes and same nose, but her cheeks/chin, hair and lips were her mother’s.
“Leave me alone!” She snapped at him.
The woman had witnessed something the Torchwood team had been doing, had seen an alien and the man in a RAF coat of all things, was now bugging her to come have a drink…
And she had heard the stories, that once you saw something that Torchwood had done, suddenly the people didn’t have a clue what you are talking about the following day… they would forget.
“You’re not ducking with my memories sunshine, I’ve heard the whispers, I’m not stupid. You Torchwood people are bad news.” Lilly-Moira Tuts And spins around to glare at him.
“I’ve managed just fine with the knowledge that aliens exist… That happens when you’ve been living in London for 5 years during university.”
“And honestly don’t you even know how to treat a woman? You’re asking me out for a drink and you haven’t even given me your name…” She scoffs And crosses her arms, probably looking somewhat like her mother in that very moment… or her gran…
Especially with the fact that her mother constantly talked about how men should treat women right and how her father was an ass to have gone and vanished like that… he didn’t even know she had existed or that her Ma had been pregnant.
“Wait!”
All those things were absolutely true. It was only recently, having received a letter that had gone astray years ago, that he even knew she existed. Naturally, he had done some discreet digging, trying to find out what he could about her without intruding too much on her life. He’d gotten the impression she wasn’t in any hurry to find out who he was; apparently, he’d at least gotten that part right.
“You’re right, I should have at least introduced myself first. I’m Jack. Jack Harkness. I’m… I knew your mother.”
She didn’t think she could have felt even more anger at this man.
THIS was the one who was supposed to be her father?
Her expression turned blank.
She turned, slowly, to face him,
keeping a mask of forced calm on her face.
“Harkness you say, hmm?” she almost sneered.
She studied his face. “Hmm, seems ive now solved the riddle of who i got my eye colour form… oh well, at least there pretty.”
“I know who you are Harkness. You, are the good for nothing, dead beat dad, the one that was never there. The one that left my mom… disappeared into the night, after one of the BEST nights of her life… Heh, she always knew that there was something wrong, That night was TOO perfect… and then she found out why…. Only thing is, she couldn’t exactly move on when the man had left a surprise gift in her womb, now could she…” Lily gave him a mocking Smile.
“Hope your proud of yourself Jack. Congrats, its a girl. You have a daughter… only its 50 years too late, don’t you think… Would have been nice to know about the little inheritance you left me… Tho, its came in handy after the mass shooting that happened the first time i died.” She shrugs.
“But thats that… Bye. DAD.”
