Drabble: Foot In Mouth: Jack - Sequel to ‘Rebuked’

Title: Foot In Mouth: Jack - Sequel to ‘Rebuked

Author: [livejournal.com profile] badly_knitted

Characters: Jack, Ianto, mentions Nosy.

Rating: G

Written For: Challenge 342: Foreign Language at [livejournal.com profile] tw100

Spoilers: Nada.

Summary: Jack’s surprised that Nosy really is learning Welsh.

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







“You really are teaching Nosy Welsh?” Jack was astonished; he hadn’t expected Ianto to admit it.



Ianto just shrugged. “Why not? It likes learning new things.”



“Yeah, but… Shouldn’t you be teaching it English instead of a foreign language?”



That earned Jack a withering look.



“First of all, we’re in Wales, so technically, Welsh is not a foreign language here, it’s our native language. Secondly, Nosy is an alien from another planet; it only speaks Fluff. As far as it’s concerned, all earth languages could be considered foreign, and that includes English.”



Jack winced at Ianto’s disapproving tone. “Good point.”



The End

Don't ever tell a Welsh person that they're speaking a foreign langauge! ;)

Back away from the argument now Jack, you can't win and Ianto has many ways of punishing you if you do. ;)

Another lovely pair of stories. Perhaps Jack can learn as Nosey does. Meant to say before Nosey reminds me of a more sociable version of Star Trek's Tribbles
