Office Seduction Slide One…

Jack knew there were things he was especially gifted at. He could dance. Anything from the cha-cha to the rumba and on one occasion he had been known to perform spectacularly well around a maypole, but that had more to do with his state of inebriation and his willingness to get naked, still no one complained, or at least he didn't remember anyone complaining and in the end that's all that really mattered. He also did towering and imposing quite well. But best of all he flirted like a God, not one of those minor deities that some cheese worshiping freak prayed to, no like a full blown creator of all things, flirty God, capital G.
It was as a result of this he was rendered in his current state of perplexity. He needed to think upon things. His subject, one suited cutie, was thus far unresponsive to his best flirt, the 10,000 watt, 32 tooth, shiny eyed, buttock clenched, flirt. Nothing, nada, zilch, aforementioned waist-coated hottie had had the audacity to ask if he needed something for gas and promptly wandered off to shine something irrelevant.
This was not a good thing, and it was this very dismissal, because truly there was no other word for it that had lead a somewhat stressed captain to his current state. It seemed like a brilliant plan at the time. Ianto liked lists. He made lists of everything. He liked order and Jack reasoned he would best appeal to Ianto on these terms. It had taken a week….mother of all that was holy, a full week! But Jack was a man on a mission, plus he was a creature who appreciated the aesthetic in all things, whether it be bright, shiny or tentacled.
This was his moment, Ianto would be his. He had a plan, he was filled with the smug sureness of one who knew he was onto a winner! He would give a presentation, a full 17 slide PowerPoint, with animations, transitions and perhaps a voice over, to include gratuitous use of laser pointer, Jack smirked lecherously at this thought. All would be well, PowerPoint was a dead cert, everybody loved a good PowerPoint presentation , admittedly he himself had never actually attended one, but by all accounts they were the way to go if one was trying to impress, nay bed, the admin staff…….
