Walter 14 - Ianto's Clan

by Awatere11

Walter is 17, the others as grown-up as him and they are flying the nest. Ianto is watching his retirement loom like the bloody grim reaper and he wonders if a mid-life crisis should be right about now. Shame because there is no time for one as the Gods do their usual shyte. At least there is Jack, his comfort helps. I Love my crumbly xx Don't like don't read Smut comedy lovexx

"I know what I want to be when I grow up" Ton said with that certain seriousness such a comment needed, "I have decided."

Ianto looked up from the book he was reading while Imp was asleep and found himself in the presence of a giant frog. The onesie Ton had on along with Biggles style goggles and a leather flight hat pulled down so the frog eyes on the hood of the onesie bugged out on his forehead, giving him the look of a weird alien being.

Ianto blinked. "A frog."

"No! Don't be silly Taddy Bum!" Ton roared with mirth, turning to his dog, "Did you hear that Badger Man? He thought I was gonna be a frog. Silly."

"No" he sat with a big whomp on the sofa and looked into his father's eyes with a serious stare, Ianto able to see the glasses framed inside the goggles. "I am going to be a toad."

Ianto struggled.

"Well. Thank the gods for that then" he finally said and Ton smiled.

"Yes, exactly" Ton grinned, "I am gonna be Mister Toad and me and Mister Badger Man will go on grown up adventures. I will drive of course."

"I see, since you have hands for that sort of thing" Ianto nodded, "He shall be good at helping with directions then."

Ton lit up, "I knew you would understand. When I am grown up I have to go on adventures with Badger, but we will always be home for tea. OK?"

"OK" Ianto nodded, "I shall try not to worry about the adventures. Pirates and sharks and stuff."

"You can never be too careful about sharks" Ton agreed, "Imp can come too. But he will have to sit in the back, Badger takes shotgun."

"Well of course, that's a given" Ianto said with a swallow.

Ton snorted, "But Imp can help carry the picnic. There will be a picnic, right?"

"Yes love, I shall make the picnic for you" Ianto promised.

"Good, good" Ton nodded, looking up at the ceiling as his little mind considered things, "My motor will be green and have big knobbly wheels so we can drive over to Rocky for the picnic. It will be sunny and we shall have to wear hats."

"Of course" Ianto agreed, "A real car?"

"Gods no, I shall run over too many gardens in a real one, look at how many you have crashed and you are a good driver. No. Like the Mayoral Motor I want one of those. But green. Froggy green…I mean Toad green" Ton explained, "We can go down to Manny's for fish and chips sometimes, even fetch the milk. Badger will be my horn if needed, he does like to yell at people in the pram but Imp doesn't share much."

Ianto blinked as he finally found out the dog has been riding with the baby, a snort of amusement escaping. Bloody Jack.

"You need to ask next door, the twins have grown out of their twin buggy we got them. Maybe Imp and Badger can share when you push them down for milk with Daddy."

"Ah!" Ton leapt up, the boogily froggy eyeballs wobbling on his head, "Brilliant! Come on Badger man, the game is on my foot!"

Ianto waited until they were gone before letting the laughter take over.
