Summary: They have everything – or do they?

A/N: For
fanbot’s prompt "Won't you tell me what you want, what you really really want."
Even in his wildest dreams, Ianto had never imagined so many flavours of ice cream existed. Jack had told him this shop sold every flavour in the universe; judging by the list, he was right.
Choosing wouldn’t be easy, but Ianto Jones never backed down from a challenge.
After carefully considering different combinations, he made his choice.
“I’ll have the triple chocolate fudge choc chip coffee ripple, please. What are you having, Jack?”
Turning, he found Jack staring at the list, a devastated expression on his face.
“Jack? Are you okay?”
Jack gave a despairing wail.
“They don’t have vanilla!”
The End

(I just thought it would be funny if Jack liked Vanilla ice cream best, lol!)
Thank you!

Thank you!

Date: 2014-08-29 04:41 pm (UTC)Actually, they do have it - they couldn't make some of their fancy combinations without it - but why list the single favours? Anything that is a component of one of their fancy ice creams is obviously in stock, you just have to ask. the same if you want a combination that isn't listed - like Key Lime Pie, Coconut, and Chocolate Truffle or something. Jack got his favourite ice cream.

Date: 2014-09-03 05:44 am (UTC)This reminds me of story; my friend went to have ice cream with her dad. And he kept saying to her she could have anything she wanted. In the end she wanted vanilla, and her dad found himself irritated by that because he thought it was a boring flavor. *giggles*

Date: 2014-09-03 09:45 am (UTC)Turned out that they DID have vanilla, it just wasn't listed, so Jack got his treat. There are subtle nuances of flavour to vanilla that Jack's advanced taste buds delight in! He thinks vanilla has an unfair reputation.
Thank you!
