Summary: Jack and Ianto find themselves in a bit of a predicament.

A/N: Prompt used is ‘Landmarks’
“What could go wrong?” Ianto muttered. “Why the bloody hell did you have to go and say that, Jack?”
“Would it help if I apologised?”
“Under the current circumstances? No.”
“Oh. I am sorry though.”
Ianto rolled his eyes.
“I know, Jack. You always are. Unfortunately, your being sorry doesn’t make us any less LOST!”
“Maybe if we could spot a landmark…”
Ianto stopped dead.
“Jack, look around us; we’re surrounded by trees. Nothing but trees. And I’m sorry, but they all look alike to me. We could be walking in circles for all I know.”
Jack sagged in defeat.

I take it a compass is the one thing Jack doesn't have on his wrist strap?

Thank you!
