Future Present

Toshiko didn't believe in time travel. It was conceptually impossible - fine for science fiction, absurd in reality.

Then she met Jack Harkness, who knew too much about the future.

His lover, John Hart, called them both "Time Agents", and laughed about it.

Time Agents. The words echoed in her brain as she noticed the glint in John's eye, the cockeyed smile, the flirtatious glance he gave each of them. "Worse than Jack," said Owen, but they were two of a kind, Captain John and their own Captain Jack.

Time travellers. Men from the future.

Toshiko's heart pounded with excitement.

Excellent character piece of Tosh. It makes sense she'd be fascinated by the technology of time travel.

It makes sense she'd be fascinated by the technology of time travel.

She wouldn't be able to understand it right off, and that would make it a challenge to her.

Besides - who wouldn't be intrigued by time travel? I certainly would be!
