Spoilers: Nada.
Summary: Ianto still doesn’t like camping…
Disclaimer: I don’t own Torchwood, or the characters.
A/N: I apologise – this was all I could think of when I read the prompt…
Ianto gingerly poked a stick into the campfire, rolling a charred sausage towards him. When it was close enough, he stabbed it with a fork and deposited it on a plate with several other sausage-shaped cinders.
He glared at Jack.
“I hope you’re not expecting these to be edible.”
“Sorry.” Jack looked sheepish.
“What on earth possessed you to try flipping sausages?”
“I saw a chef doing it on TV. He looked really cool, tossing and catching them. I thought I could do it.”
Ianto groaned. “No more TV, you’re too easily influenced.”
“At least we still have the beans!”
The End

Thank you!

Jack tries so hard to impress Ianto, but he's seemingly doomed to failure *pets Jack* Better luck next time!
(I'm awaiting the arrival of a new little Ianto action figure. Been trying to get a third one since I ended up with a third Torchwood Jack. I just hope they'll like each other. Torchwood Jack and Coat Jack have never really seemed happy together).

Date: 2013-05-24 02:30 pm (UTC)I bought a Tosh and a John Hart a couple of weeks ago but they're still in their packaging and will stay there until I need them for Action Figure Theatre. Even so, I have two Doctors (Nine and Eleven), 6 assorted Jacks and 2 Iantos with the third in transit. He hasn't arrived yet, but I've set up a room where they can get to know each other when he gets here. I just need to set out some food with the champagne! My mum is starting to think I'm weird. I think she's probably right, but I'm having too much fun to care. Is 51 too early to have a second childhood? LOL!
