:) Here. 120 words in total. End of Days oriented.

Cold

Whenever he gasped in that first breath, that sudden flood of air and life, his lungs always burned for a few moments. It was cold. So cold it cut at his throat and clawed its way into his insides, ripping and tearing - but just for a few seconds. Then the cold spread out through his body and dissipated into the surrounding air. A matter of moments and he would be warm again. That was how it worked. Always. He knew that.

But Ianto knew better.

And Jack, staggering, with help, out of the collapsing Hub, and unable to shake the bone-deep, aching coldness, thanked every god he could think of that Ianto knew to grab his coat as they went.

Yay! I love how descriptive this piece is. And Ianto's intuitiveness is spot on.

*blush* Thanke. You always knew there was a reason for that coat-grab, didn't you? :D

Actually, I always put it down to Ianto having Things He's Responsible For and that those color his world view even in the midst of the hub collapsing:

Ianto is responsible for coffee procurement.
Ianto is responsible for the care and feeding of Myfanwy.
Ianto is responsible for the care and feeding of Captain Jack Harkness.
Ianto is responsible for making sure Jack has his coat when he wants it.
...etc.

*snerk* I do like that very much. :D Especially it being care and feeding of Myfanwy before Jack. ^_^

Hee. Yes, though it's not because Ianto has any illusions that Jack can take care of himself.

*laughing too* Okay, now I want to read "On the Care and Feeding of Captain Jack Harkness" by Ianto Jones.
