When Nosy first arrived on earth, it had been badly in need of protection. Its first few weeks, surviving by itself in the countryside beyond Cardiff had been fraught with danger. Local farmers, believing it a threat, had shot at it, and if Jack and Ianto hadn’t rescued it when they did, it probably wouldn’t have survived much longer, certainly not through a cold, wet winter.

 
Nosy knew how lucky it had been, and was very grateful for its new home with the team. It wanted for nothing; there was always plenty of food, water, and coffee, it had toys to play with, and the company of all its human friends.

 
Helping around the Hub was its way of repaying its friends for all they’d done, but the work was also fun, vacuuming, dusting, and running small errands. Now, however, there was a problem. The dead alien the team had brought in was not as dead as they’d thought. Now it was awake, and the team didn’t know! Nosy had to protect its friends, but how?

 
As the creature advanced, Nosy slithered into its path, tripping it.
 

“Well done, Nosy!” Ianto praised.
 

Nosy hummed modestly. Captain Fluff saves the day!

Thank you! Nosy the Fluff started life as a one-off alien character. Ten years later, it's still going strong, permanent Fluff in residence.
