Where's the Master?

[Ianto appears on the Plane, gun drawn and looking far from happy.  He gets straight to the point, because he's clearly not in the mood for small talk... no prizes for guessing why he's so angry and who he's blaming.]

It isn't... I just think we have different ideas of what's unnecessary. [Yep- he's avoiding looking at you, Jack.]

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

[Jack doesn't say anything, just looks annoyed, because he's really getting tired of arguing about this]

[damnfinecoffee.livejournal.com]

[So is Ianto, but he still doesn't think Jack's right.] I can't do anything you've ordered me not to. You know that.

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

I don't doubt your loyalty Ianto, far from it, but you're only human.

[damnfinecoffee.livejournal.com]

I won't do anything unless I have to,

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

In the end, you're going to trust your judgment above mine. [doesn't sound mad or even annoyed at this, just states it as a matter of fact]

[damnfinecoffee.livejournal.com]

[Just looks away from him.]

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

Ianto, look at me....

[damnfinecoffee.livejournal.com]

[He does so; slightly reluctantly.]

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

[He locks eyes with Ianto, pronouncing each word with utter confidence] I trust your judgment, more than you think.

[damnfinecoffee.livejournal.com]

[And because Ianto isn't really sure how to respond to that he just moves to hold him.]

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

[Jack wraps his arms around Ianto, holding him close. A small part of his mind points out that Ianto has been a lot more physical since he saw him in the Plane, but he figures it's only natural; after working side-by-side for so long, he suddenly disappeared for seven months]

[Ianto doesn't get to see his own version of Jack; he likes to make up for it with this version when they aren't arguing]

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

[Jack doesn't mind at all, especially considering he's missing his own version of Ianto at the moment. One of his hands comes up, fingers intertwining with Ianto]

[damnfinecoffee.livejournal.com]

[Ianto tightens his hold on Jack's hand, relaxing against him.]

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

[Jack smiles despite himself, kissing Ianto's forehead softly; it's been too long since he's been able to just hold even his own Ianto]

[damnfinecoffee.livejournal.com]

[Ianto can't help but smile himself, shifting so he can nuzzle into his neck.]

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

[Jack leans into it happily. Abruptly, he pulls away from Ianto, giving him a 'wait here' ok and disappearing from the Plane. He comes a few seconds later, this time with the couch that's usually in his office]

[damnfinecoffee.livejournal.com]

[Ianto doesn't really know what to make of Jack's sudden disappearance until he returns with the couch... but he doesn't really need him to explain anything when he spots the couch. This is Jack.]

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

[Jack looks rather pleased with himself, sitting on the couch and tugging Ianto down with him, arm already curling around his waist]

[damnfinecoffee.livejournal.com]

[Ianto's far from adverse to Jack's plans, leaning against him, and picking up from where he'd left off.]

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

[Jack shifts until his leaning against the arm rest, settling Ianto between his legs as his other arm wrapped around his waist]

[damnfinecoffee.livejournal.com]

[Ianto lifts his head from Jack's neck, moving to kiss him instead.]

[itsthecoat.livejournal.com]

[Jack happily returns the kiss, his tongue tracing over Ianto's lips, placing one hand on Ianto's thigh, his palm over it slowly]

[damnfinecoffee.livejournal.com]

[Ianto opens his mouth to deepen the kiss, running a hand through Jack's hair.]
