Title: With A Bump

Author: badly_knitted

Characters: Ianto, Jack.

Rating: PG

Written For: Challenge 410: Hand at tw100.

Spoilers: Nada.

Summary: The one where Old Faithful gives up.

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

Right in the middle of a particularly energetic session in Jack’s bunk, the poor ancient and overstrained piece of furniture gave up the ghost, dumping both Jack and Ianto unceremoniously onto the cold concrete.

“Ow!” Ianto yelped as his arse struck the floor rather painfully. His head was better off, thanks to the pillow.

“Oops,” Jack replied, disentangling himself and giving Ianto a helping hand to extract himself from the wreckage. “Don’t worry; a few replacement slats and it’ll be good as new.”

“Screw that,” Ianto muttered. “Let it rest in pieces. Tomorrow we’re going shopping for a proper bed.”

The End

Rest in pieces... sigh I remember when we finally broke down and bought a new mattress and box spring. My back still celebrates.

Ianto had no intention of trying to fix that cot, because you just know the job would have fallen to him!

I need a new mattress, mine is too hard.

Thank you!

Jack will insist on trying every bed in the shop - and on Ianto trying it out with him. Ianto will put on his 'not amused' face. and keep his dignity

I think you've got that spot on!

Thank you =D

Given the exhaustive usage it gets, it must have imbued some of Jack's immortality to have lasted even this long.

Rest in peace good bed, you have served thine master well...

I bet even with the new bed, Jack still repairs his cot. He'll tell Ianto it has sentimental value and enlist his assistance, lol!

There's a lot of Jack in that old cot. And Ianto too ;)

Thank you!
