It was a rainy day and everyone had agreed to stay in their own homes without even speaking 'like some communal hive mind' as Jack had put it with amusement. Ianto was currently sitting on the floor going over some photos and movies stills for a movie companion book Water had asked him to do for the fans of the show.
It was actually really neat fun, Ianto had not expected it to be this much fun and he was enjoying not only the memories some of the photos brought forth, but also the fact Walter had scribbled his own thoughts and such on the back of some of the for the captions.
Shay was helping.
As in… any photos placed on the 'don't know about that one' pile was going in Shay's book. A little scrap book form somewhere that Ianto suspected was a colouring book someone else had coloured in and now repurposed, was getting a smear of glue and then the photo of Shay's choice slammed into it like a card shark making a killing in Vegas. Then Shay would pick up a pen and scribbled something gibberish with this look of distain, like this was such hard work.
Ianto had always had the little ones copying him at times, it was normal for them to copy and learn but this was just so cute. Of course Monkey said it was like the Jaws scene at the dinner table and maybe someone would get eaten soon, resulting in Imp's snorted laughter as they raced for Imp's room.
"Irriots" Shay said softly, picking up another picture to then declare "Perfek!"
"Did you call your brother and his boyfriend idiots?" Jack asked, looking up from his book on airplanes.
"No. An Irriot. Keep up Daddsy." Shay said clearly, then with an eye roll chose another picture.
"An idiot is just… an idiot. But an Irriot is another breed of idiot all together Cariad" Ianto explained without looking up from his own work.
"Yeah, what he sez." Came the muttered reply from the little one.
Ianto snorted softly, and then let a chuckle escape before he leaned over to write a caption under a photo that made the grade. "yeah. Ya Irriot."
Shay snorted softly too, little shoulders shaking as Shay enjoyed a joke with Hr Taddy.
The bright green Tutu Shay had found somewhere spraying around on the floor like a mushroom, offset with the Spiderman t-shirt. Then came a photo that had Shay grunting and shaking it at Ianto.
"Oh, yeah. Walter thought there was a spider in his pants, felt something ticking him. Dropped them then and there on the set only to find it was just tag, see? Everyone laughing." Ianto smiled "He would not like that one in there, his arse on display."
Shay slapped it in the book and wrote something, Ianto looking over "S. P. I. R. D. R. Well done. Not quite how you spell spider but you have most of the letters, well done Shay. Good try, I like it. A Spirdr. A Walter Killing Mega Spider?"
Shay giggled and looked at the page with pride, "yeah. A Spirdr of dooooms!"
All Irriots here.
