04- There's always a downhill to the uphill

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

[Jack appears on the plane, looking annoyed, tired, worried, though he's trying to hide it, and just not pleased in general] Ianto wasn't at work yesterday morning, wasn't at his apartment, and nobody, including the owner down at the dry cleaner's, has seen him since then.

Anybody want to tell me what the hell is going on?

Just work related. I've been trying to find where they sent him.

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

[Raises an eyebrow] So they know, they're just not telling?

[dameluckypants.livejournal.com]

That's usually the way they work. You know, sending people off, not mentioning it, and handwaving it when they're a day and a half late.

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

Any more than three days, and I'd start to demand answers if I were you.

[dameluckypants.livejournal.com]

Three? I'll keep that in mind.

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

Usually enough leeway in whatever schedule UNIT had.

Now that I think about it, you never mentioned Will worked for UNIT.

[dameluckypants.livejournal.com]

Didn't I? Guess not. [Smirky!Rose goes here]

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

Have yo told the Doctor?

[dameluckypants.livejournal.com]

I haven't, no. You think I should?

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

[Makes a 'meh' face] Depends; do you think it'd help things, or just make him even more over-protective?

[dameluckypants.livejournal.com]

You never know. He is funny when he's being jealous and overprotective.

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

And he can't really do much from here, short of demanding you stop seeing Will, though that's a bit straight forward for him....

You should tell him, then.

[dameluckypants.livejournal.com]

I'll remember all of the details for you, too.

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

Very thoughtful of you.

[dameluckypants.livejournal.com]

Oh, I'm sure you'd love to hear.

I'd tell you about last time, but, er, there isn't much to tell.

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

I'll be happy to wait for when you do tell him, then.

[dameluckypants.livejournal.com]

You would, too. [Nudge] I've got a question.

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

Patience is a virtue, as they say.

Ask away.

[dameluckypants.livejournal.com]

I've never been good at that one.

Do you know where I last put the metal Princess Leia bikini?

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

Think of it as a practice exercise, then?

[pauses a moment to savor the mental picture] No, and how have I not seen this particular outfit?

[dameluckypants.livejournal.com]

Haven't you? --oh! I know where it is. My closet on the TARDIS.

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

I would remember an outfit like that, Rose.

[dameluckypants.livejournal.com]

Well, if you give me five minutes....

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

I would wait five years to see you in a n outfit like that.

[dameluckypants.livejournal.com]

Hold on, then. [And she's gone! And back, in a bit, wearing it]
