Warnings/Spoilers: None
Summary: The weather causes an unexpected problem.
Autumn. Harvest time. Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness.
“They got the mist part right,” Ianto muttered, stumbling over another rut.
Here they were, at night, out in the middle of nowhere, retrieving alien tech from a field - already harvested, thank God. Suddenly down comes the mist and they can’t see past the ends of their noses. Bloody freezing, too. Finding the tech had proved easy. The SUV, on the other hand…
It had to be around here somewhere.
A loud thud and a muffled curse came from Jack.
“Found it! Ow. Think I broke by doze.”
Ianto winced.
The End

Date: 2012-09-21 05:31 pm (UTC)It's not unusual for people to write more than one fic for a prompt.
I've got mine written, but I need to think of a title before I can post it....

Date: 2012-09-21 05:31 pm (UTC)Yes, Jack looks very mournful and sorry for himself. Not than Ianto can tell right now as he can't see him. Once they're in the SUV out of the fog and with a light on, Ianto will fix Jack's nose. Then they'll have to wait for the fog to lift so there will be plenty of time to kiss it better, lol!

Date: 2012-09-21 05:22 pm (UTC)Yes, they are. They're also quick which is a relief when the fic you're trying to write is taking its own sweet time to go anywhere. I feel like I'm writing the fic version of a very tired snail going uphill against the wind. It's creeping along desperately slowly!

Date: 2012-09-21 04:49 pm (UTC)Poor Jack but surely Ianto will kiss it better many times ....
no subject
Date: 2012-09-21 05:25 pm (UTC)I'm sure he will too, once he's stopped the bleeding and put Jack's poor nose straight so it can heal properly. Maybe that will teach Jack to use caution, instead of striding through the dark and fog as if it was daylight! Still, at least he found the SUV.

Date: 2012-09-21 11:20 pm (UTC)However, he is not happy with a broken nose so he demanded a sequel to fix it. Hopefully that will be up in a couple of days. It's very much Woobie!Jack - he's very good at being pathetic when circumstances call for it.
Thanks for reading!

Thank you =)

Date: 2012-09-23 06:26 am (UTC)Ouch! How unfortunate, finding the SUV nose first.
no subject
Date: 2012-09-23 09:52 am (UTC)Poor Jack - he wasn't careful the way Ianto is, so his poor nose met a very hard surface with quite a bit of force. He's feeling rather sorry for himself!
I hope to post the sequel later today.

Date: 2012-09-23 07:30 pm (UTC)Poor Jack indeed, but don't worry - he was feeling sorry for himself so I wrote a fic called Poor Jack so he could feel better again, lol! I just couldn't leave him like that, I'm too soft-hearted.
