written for the hc_bingo  (i'm getting good at these!) prompt 'fear of heights'. I'm not completely happy with how this came out so feel free to lie, tell the absolute truth. I  think I might rewrite it at a later date but it's here now. *hides under desk and disowns it*

What's not to like? :)
Ianto in peril, Jack to the rescue, all written in character, with great pacing and tension leading to a satisfying ending that's warm without schmoop. I'll say it works! :D
