38. Forty-Eight Deaths In (still)
Things did seem to look up … for a while.
They even got past the Hart problem without a roof drive or the lipstick, yeah. Ianto kind of liked her now. I mean, for now.
Tommy was hard, Owen was a rock for Tosh and Ianto was pleased that they had found each other, even if they were both too stubborn to admit it.
Something told him to push that a bit more … urgently.
Then came that poor, bloody space whale.
Gwen was a bit over protective and Ianto remembered this part all too well.
The stun gun was just as satisfying but he was still bloody angry about the whole, empty chamber thing.
Jack, again, didn't notice the empty click of the trigger against his lover' head.
Twat.
Then came the weirdest day so far.
This red headed dork that kept asking him to 'remember' like that was a problem? Please, he was sick of remembering and told him so. Funnily enough, damn idiot didn't react as confused as one might think. Instead he started avoiding Ianto.
Weird.
Ianto tried to talk to Jack and found him all … ah. Wait a minute.
Now Ianto remembered what was so important.
Owen turning up with glasses on triggered the memories and Ianto calmly asked Adam to come with him, he had a file about a mission they had gone on together and it confused him.
Adam tripped along thinking he had finally won, until Ianto shoved him into the cell.
"You know, last time retcon took care of you apparently, but it won't work now. Not with my mind the way it is" Ianto said with a shrug, "Sorry Janet."
The weevil growled low and menacingly as Adam slowly turned and looked at his cell mate.
Jack was angry at first, then just fed up with the whole thing.
Finally, on the same page.
Oh yeah, Rhys was livid as Gwen had been Adam's choice with Owen and Tosh far too close to even suggest apart.
Shame that.
They had been getting along so well, and come so fucking far.
Bitch was still a great shot though.

Ianto slammed the orb into Jack's hand and stormed back out, not caring how he reacted this time.
Really, he was past caring at all as he swung, sending Gwen flying across the hub as Owen shouted with surprise.
"Fucking bitch!" Ianto screamed advancing as Tosh struggled up from her workstation, trying to call out to Jack.
By the time Jack staggered from his office, Ianto had straddled Gwen and was slamming her head into the grating as he snarled with rage.
"Ianto, darling stop" Jack was falling down the steps as he tried to reach him but Owen was quicker.
Now that WAS a surprise.
Ianto didn't know he had it in him.
Used Gwen's gun as well.
Better luck next time.
