[[OOC: Fail post is fail and yes, it is totally meant to not have anything to actually respond to. This is a backdated post for all Organization shenanigans, regarding The Ianto Incident and... Time is wobbly. Consider it mostly backdated and something of a... Weird... Party thread in the Organization HQ and beyond. Anything related to Ianto in ( Read more... )

Ianto is dressed, conscious -- perhaps not as clear-headed as he'd like, but close -- and suddenly very nervous. It was easy enough to forget, when he was with Anna and Winter, exactly what was going on. Now, outside the dubious safety of the bedroom he'd first woken up in, Ianto's remembering that no one goes to such great lengths to take care of someone unless they want something.

And really, the only thing anyone could want from him is Torchwood. Information, or a way in, or a way to take the entire group down.

Ianto could provide all of these things. He knows that.

He won't, though, for all that he can't remember why he should want to go back. People want him here, people seem to care (do care), and if he could just make a clean break, leave Torchwood behind... He might just do it, if he could stay with them.

Them consists of Winter and Anna, and he wishes one of them (Winter) was here now. He's safe with them.

Here, alone, he's... Not sure. But he has a distinctly bad feeling about this.

Adam's not accustomed to doing business in the Velvet Room- oh, he's done business in some of the finest dens of iniquity in his day, so it's not the atmosphere that bothers him (it was pretty common in the 1920's, after all). The Velvet Room, specifically, for all that he admires Leona, is just not his favorite place in the world.

And, yet, it would be prudent to leave Leona's faun where she can find him if this goes sour- and it just might, depending on what the hell Leona and her kids did to him. Honestly, he's not anticipating much from this. After all, it's not his strategy, so therefore it's bound to not work ( ... )

Ianto's smile tries for 'polite' and manages 'pained', but he still stands to greet Adam, with a nod of his head and a soft, "Mr. Monroe."

At Adam's next words, however, he knows what to expect.

"She has been. Everyone here has been more than accommodating. Now, I assume this is the part where you tell me what's expected of me in return for your hospitality."

He trusts Winter, trusts Anna only slightly less, but when it comes to Leona and Adam... He's still not an idiot.

"I'd rather not be kept in suspense, if it's all the same."

"You would be correct in that assumption," Adam replies with a slight nod, still perfectly conversational. There's a nice little bar in the corner of the room and he settles himself to the task of pouring himself something to drink.

"As you know, Ianto." And there's a little lilt in that phrase and enough of a pause between that thought and the next to imply that he doesn't suspect that Ianto knows this at all. "We have more than enough information on Torchwood to utterly devastate them several times over, all thanks to your journal, which Leona was so kind to show me." Pesky things journals, but very useful when you're not the one compromising everyone you ever cared about. "The good news is, I'm not interested in that ( ... )
