Summary: Ianto's thoughts on Flat Holm.

AN: Written for the dailyfics prompt table. Let me know what you think.

When Jack had told him about Flat Holm Ianto dealt with it in the same way he dealt with everything else the rift threw up, with detached professionalism as taught by Torchwood One. He'd never met the victims of the rift that stayed out at Flat Holm, so they were just numbers to him, as an archivist cataloguing and filing things were his job, so the details of Flat Holm and the number of inhabitants were also filed. It wasn't until Jack was away and Ianto had to take over dealing with Flat Holm onto his duties, as no-one else on the team knew, that they became something more. Once he had met them they could no longer be categorised with numbers, they now had names and faces in his mind as well as the knowledge of what each one of them had suffered. No there was no way they could be labelled as numbers anymore.
