Anmerkung: Englisch & kurz. Jack und Ianto. Fluff.



There's that mischievous look Ianto gets when he has an idea. He's good with those. It's a good start for the day: Ianto looking mischievous, which makes Jack leer, which makes Ianto bring him coffee with an air of aloof professionalism that would make a saint melt. Well, any saint with a mind like Jack's, anyway. Which can't be that many. Not that Jack's a saint. If he were, he probably wouldn't procede with fantasizing while sipping his coffee. But that's exactly what he does, he's really good at it and it's something he does often enough to develop Pavlovian reflexes. More often than not, he starts off just drinking coffee and five minutes later he finds himself fantasizing away.

Jack's trying to guess what the idea is, because Ianto wouldn't tell. Ianto likes to say things like “You'll know soon enough.” in a mysteriously sexy way, or maybe it's sexily mysterious, hard to decide, and then, when he's being especially smug, he'll allow himself to think about it (well, maybe he's still testing if Jack's psychic) and he'll get that far away look just to tantalize Jack. It works well enough.

It's an equally charming and slightly fucked-up trait in Ianto, that he always wants to impress. With the suits and the games and that oh so clever and unfazed persona. Always tries a tick too hard. Sometimes Jack wishes he'd be a more impressible person for Ianto, sometimes he fakes it. Sometimes Ianto manages to blow his mind with a soft smile and an insightful remark in one of those moments when he doesn't try at all.

Hach ... ich find das Ende toll.
Und generell wie du das schreibst, dass Ianto immer ein bisschen zu angestrengt versucht kühl und ungerührt und überlegen zu wirken. Und dass Jack da total durchsieht und ihn eigentlich am tollsten findet, wenn er es nicht mal drauf anlegt ... ó____ò
