Disclaimer: I don’t own Torchwood, or the characters.
A/N: There’s enough doom and gloom in the world right now, I simply couldn’t bring myself to take the prompt seriously!
The entire team jumped up as the cog door opened and Jack helped a very pale and shaky looking Ianto up to the sofa, where he slumped bonelessly.
As Jack hurried away to fetch a glass of water, the others crowded around.
“Ianto, what’s wrong, are you alright?” Tosh asked anxiously.
“Yeah, Teaboy, you look like you’ve seen a ghost!” added Owen.
“The world is ending,” Ianto mumbled, staring blankly in front of him.
Jack returned with the water.
“The Coffee Emporium has run out of his favourite blend and won’t be getting any more until after Christmas,” he explained.
The End

Thank you!

And you're right--I bet someone, maybe more than one someone, bought him some of the good stuff for Christmas. They might even take pity on him and give it to him early. Even Owen wouldn't be so cruel as to withhold coffee. :)

Date: 2012-12-22 07:59 pm (UTC)I can't bear instant, so I never have coffee. It was very good, but now I hav e indigestion because I'm not used to it and my stomach gives me a lot of trouble at the best of times. Totally worth it though!
I'm sure they will give Ianto his Christmas present early. A coffee-deprived Ianto would be too sad a sight!

Date: 2012-12-26 03:18 pm (UTC)*I know that I risk being lynched, but I'm not very coffee!
I drink coffee when I need it, but then I took advantage.
I suppose if I had the honor to taste one of Ianto, I will become addicted, but for the time I prefer tea.
but I understand : poor Ianto.

Date: 2012-12-26 04:33 pm (UTC)Ianto is just addicted to coffee and I'm afraid the thought of not having any until after Christmas has been rather a bad shock for him. He will be fine though, I'm sure Jack will manage to get him a supply of really good coffee from somewhere!
no subject
Date: 2012-12-26 05:10 pm (UTC)I also think Jack will do anything to save his Ianto!
no subject
Date: 2012-12-26 05:18 pm (UTC)Of course Jack will - he'll call in some favours and have a load of coffee sent up from London by helicopter if he has to! Nothing is too difficult if it's for his beloved Welshman!

Date: 2013-01-05 01:39 pm (UTC)Yes, he's in shock! Jack is worried, Ianto needs emergency coffee treatment. He's going to call contacts in London and have a large shipment sent by helicopter!
