That's it. I can't, not any more.
There's no point.
[ooc: Ianto is affected by the Road Less Travelled curse! In this, he never came to Torchwood Three after Canary Wharf, and without the help needed, Lisa died anyway. And without her, or Torchwood, he believes that he has no reason to go on

He was seriously hoping, not to have to use it.

He parked it half-hazardly and pocketed the keys as he ran for the front entrance. He could already see Jack waiting and called out to him.
"Do you know where he is?"
[ooc: Sorry guys, family stuff for an hour or so. If you're still up Shelly, I'll probably be back tonight? Otherwise SP.]

"Still vague," Jack answered starting on into the gardens, his stride adjusted so that Kyle wouldn't have to jog to catch him.
"Honestly, Kyle I've never been here that much. Do you have any idea how best to canvas the area? Any high spots that could give us a good view?"

He pointed out the way and walked quickly, not quite running but not moving slowly either.
"What are we going to say when we find him?"

"That will depend on his mental state," Jack answered, his voice indicating he wasn't expecting that 'state' to be good.

Kyle's expression and tone say he's not budging on that. So Jack might as well throw his stun-gun away.

"We're going to do what it takes to make sure he's safe," carefully intoned. "Kyle, his service weapon is missing."
Which means, Ianto is armed, confused and a danger not just to others but himself.

"You don't think he'd use it..."

"He has us," he said, steadily.

"And we're going to help him," even if it meant a little stun gun action until they could get him back to the safety of the beach house.
"Come on, let's find him."

Hopefully from that vantage point they would spot their missing Ianto.

Well, he didn't want to think about that. But how hard could it be to shoot yourself in the temple anyway.
There was no wavering, no what if's, he was resolute. He didn't have anything to live for and he had nothing to lose. There really wasn't any point.
And, he thought, better to get it done sooner before the bastard Torchwood lot came for him. Holding the heavy weight of the gun in his palm, he clicked off the safety.

Then, not only were you suicidally depressed, usually you were a vegetable also.
Spying Ianto, Jack froze and reached out to grab Kyle. Pointing, he started to use hand signals but then leaned over to whisper.
"Go that way, make sure he can't run by you," and we would all hope for Kyle's wee, short sake, Ianto didn't try to run by him or Jack could tackle him before he reached him.
Nudging Kyle off in his direction, Jack began to close in on Ianto from the front.

He moved into position, very quietly so as not to spook Ianto. Something told him spooking the man holding a gun to his head would be a bad thing.

Usually Ianto could outrun Kyle, but in the state he was in at that moment, it was unlikely he'd be able to. Ianto had been thin when he'd first joined Torchwood three, but after all his secrets were out and he was happier, he'd put on the good kind of weight.
But in this case, he'd never been anywhere near Torchwood Three.
Not noticing the other two men, he lifted the gun.
