[Ianto's sat at Jack's desk, which now stinks of disinfectant and only has a very small pile of papers left of on it.  The rest of  the papers are in a bin liner a few feet away, and it would be advisable to stay away from it (cat pee isn't a pleasant smell).

There's an untouched glass of whiskey in front of him, and from the slightly dusty state of the decanter next to it it's obvious he's took it from his own version of Jack's stash.]

I'm not exactly a non-alcoholic, you know. I haven't even drunk anything yet.

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

So... Staring at it relieves stress then?

[damnfinecoffee.livejournal.com]

Who said I was stressed?

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

Nobody, but you look a little stressed.

[damnfinecoffee.livejournal.com]

...not so much stressed as annoyed.

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

Ah.

And you take your annoyance out by staring off into space or staring at alcohol?

[damnfinecoffee.livejournal.com]

Why are you so bothered, anyway?

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

I'm not bothered, I'm curios.

[damnfinecoffee.livejournal.com]

I can think of worse ways of taking out my annoyance.

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

I suppose, at least you aren't massacring everybody.

[damnfinecoffee.livejournal.com]

No... massacring isn't really my style.

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

No... You don't look much like a massacring type.

[damnfinecoffee.livejournal.com]

Glad you think so.

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

Well, it's hardly like I'm going to say that you like like the type of person to kill hundreds happily.

[damnfinecoffee.livejournal.com]

I suppose not.

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

Heavens, you really are grumpy today.

[damnfinecoffee.livejournal.com]

I hadn't noticed.

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

[Sigh] You need cheering up.

[damnfinecoffee.livejournal.com]

And how do you suggest I go about that?

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

I don't know, dancing?

[damnfinecoffee.livejournal.com]

Sounds like something Amane would suggest.

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

It helps reduce stress.

[damnfinecoffee.livejournal.com]

I'm not stressed.

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

Everybody is stressed, most people just hide it very well.

Fine, if not dancing what would make you perk up?

[damnfinecoffee.livejournal.com]

I don't need perking up.
