Title: Ianto’s In Demand

Author: badly_knitted

Characters: Ianto, Jack, Gwen

Rating: G

Written For: Challenge 319 – Stationery/Stationary at tw100

Spoilers: Not really.

Summary: Gwen wants Ianto’s help. Again.

Disclaimer: I don’t own Torchwood, or the characters.

Ianto was chatting with Jack when Gwen sheepishly approached.

“Ianto? Sorry to bother you, but I need your help if you’re not busy…”

Ianto sighed.

“Again? Alright, I’ll be there in a minute.”

“Thanks so much, you’re a love!” Gwen bounced away happily.

“Aren’t you pleased she values your opinion?” Jack teased, laughing.

“It’s not my opinion that matters! I’ll be right back.”

OoOoO

“What was it this time?” Jack asked on Ianto’s return.

“She wanted my advice on wedding stationery. I’m considering getting business cards printed: Ianto Jones, Wedding Coordinator. At least then I could charge her for my services!”

The End

Poor Ianto--doomed to be the Wedding Fairy before the wedding's even begun! :-p

It's his own fault for being so efficient and having such excellent taste ;)

Who wouldn't take advantage of those qualities if they had the chance?

Thank you!

Poor Ianto! But he's just so good at this sort of thing!

[bk_forever]

He's already overworked and now he's organising Gwen's wedding on the side. I guess that's what he gets for being so organised and efficient. Everyone takes advantage of him.

Thank you!

Well Ianto does have great taste.

[bk_forever]

He does. I'd certainly hire him. He's very good at organising things too.

Thank you

I bet these are the times Jack is really glad Ianto is the organized one. He can sit back and get in some good-natured razzing and be at the ready when Ianto needs a fortifying hug.

[bk_forever]

Those who support can be as important as those who do the work. Ianto will need a lot of those hugs. Being organised and efficient is a heavy burden to bear!

Thank you!

Ianto would make a great wedding Coordinator :0

Great story.

[bk_forever]

He's an organisational genius with excellent taste, he'd soon to booked solid!

Thank you!

A nice little side business for Ianto but would Jack go for it?

[bk_forever]

Doubtful - it would cut into Jack's Ianto time!

Thank you!

Jeez, made the Wedding Fairy already! LOL

[bk_forever]

There's no rest for Iantos!

Thank you!

[timelordshines.livejournal.com]

Lol, poor Ianto.
It's his own fault for being so good at that kind of thing - you don't see Gwen asking for Jack's help!

[bk_forever]

Ianto is the one who knows everything, and obviously has excellent taste and good organisational skills... If you want advice on ANYTHING, ask a Ianto.

Thank you!

Isn't this the role of a well-dressed gay friend?

(I know Ianto's not 'gay' as such, but Gwen won't make that distinction)

[bk_forever]

Probably that's part of what Gwen is thinking - along with "He's so good at organising things, I'm sure he won't mind..."

Thank you!

[lt_indigo]

And Ianto is too polite to tell her where to shove her invitations.

[bk_forever]

He wants Rhys to have a nice wedding.

[lt_indigo]

I'm sure he'd rather help Rhys than Gwen, though. Perhaps he should introduce her to the concept of Don't Tell the Bride.

[bk_forever]

He probably should, but he's just going along with thingd to make life easier for everyone.

what am I saying ...
Ianto knows everything, this is not the case of Bond.

[bk_forever]

Of course he does!

Thank you!
