So maybe, after The Stolen Earth or sommat, the Doctor gets his past self to recruit Ianto or something? However it happens, Ianto walks off into a supply closet or something at, say, 10:30 am, does secret agenty stuff for a few months or years, and returns just before noon. He's seen the universe, he's cranky because the only reason he's back is because he got demoted (office politics, and some silly dignitary complained, and really, was that bit of accidental genocide really his fault?) and he doesn't quite remember Gwen and Jack as well as he used to, and also he likely racked up some Angst and Anger Issues while 007-ing.

AHAHAHAHA NO WAIT. He was supposed to PROTECT the munitions factory, but the Doctor OUTSMARTED HIM and that's why Ianto got sacked, and of course post-"The Stolen Earth" Jack and Gwen are jabbering on and on and on about how wonderful the Doctor is, how dashing, and isn't he lovely in those suits and Ianto is understandably irked. Gwen gets decaf so she'll doze off and he won't have to listen to her prattle. Jack gets gagged and bitten. Smacked a bit. Doesn't complain all that much at first.

Ianto will need to have his Issues worked out before Martha comes to the Hub, though, because she doesn't deserve being meaned at. :/

...and isn't he lovely in those suits and Ianto is understandably irked.
Understandably from the perspective of someone who knows what happened. From the perspective of Jack and Gwen, of course, Ianto hates them for no reason at all and it's not fair.
And eventually Gwen gives him hurt puppy-dog eyes of confusion and Jack - Jack - starts turning down sex in favour of conversations like "Ianto, please, please tell me what's wrong so I can fix it." and "I'm sorry, okay? Now stop it, you're upsetting Gwen." and "Would killing me help? Because if it would...."
And Ianto decides that Explanations are in order after all, and Jack assures Ianto that his suit is much nicer than the Doctor's, and when Martha comes Ianto is very nice to her indeed.

I'm pretty much gonna have to add you as co-author when I do the next part.

P.S. I ADDED ON TO THE END OF THIS PART. A LOT. DOUBLED THE LENGTH, ACTUALLY.

Or just credit me as being a bad, bad influence - either's good :P

I WENT. I READ IT!
I THOUGHT: have I told you lately that you're insane / that i love you ?
I THOUGHT: FOOLS. STOP TALKING ABOUT THE DOCTOR BEFORE IANTO... TOO LATE. (MWAHAHAHA!)
I THOUGHT: OMG THEY ARE SO SO VERY DOOMED. JACK. JACK IS SO SO VERY DOOMED. He was a very good captain, though, making sure Gwen got out alive.

Gwen shrieked and Jack sat back in his chair so fast he pulled something. Ianto stood unaffectedly in the doorway, silver tie reflecting the glint and shiver of his eyes.
Eep. *shivers*
*finds something to hide behind*
New favourite sentence.
