This was so very sweet. I can see them having a moment like this. Good job.

This was lovely! It's great that Ianto was able to bring Jack out of his mood. <3

Now, please pardon me whilst I MT fangirl...OMG! You mentioned Missoula! Eee!

~e! (who is from MT)

I went on a road trip out west about five years ago, and we stopped in Missoula. It was either the place with the Dancing Goat and the unisex bathroom door that didn't lock or the place with the Italian restaurant whose clientele was an equal mix of mom & pop mountaineers and transplanted gay partners from New York. Both places had awesome food and conversation, so yay Montana!
And thanks for reading!

I can totally see this entire conversation, you wrote it so well! Thank you.

I am still chuckling at your icon.
And thanks!

Oh, now this is just lovely...
My favorite bit of all:
"The sun was starting to go down now. It gilded Ianto’s arms as he reached for another beer, and highlighted his eyelashes as he looked down for the bottle opener. Jack watched his throat as he tipped his head back to take a drink. Jack wanted to see him at fifty."
Your Jack and Ianto are very IC. Can't wait to read more. Thank you!

Thanks! I'm very glad they seem in-character; that's always a concern.
