Next chapter yay!

/.../ means telepathically spoken as always

For those that don't know Weiss Kreuz, Suzume is my OFC. Ran, and Schuldig are actually from the show.

Enjoy!

...

The other two were laughing as Ianto went for the phone. Suzume smiled at him, squeezing him a little in reassurance. Jones blinked, and realized she hadn't let him go. Instead she leaned in, and nuzzled the shorter hairs at the edge of his hairline. The young man thumbed out a text instead of answering it; hoping Jack would let it lie, for tonight.

He wanted tonight at least.

"Missed you Otoha." She sighed as he allowed himself to hold her tighter. Schuldig snorted, and she stuck her tongue out at him. Then gasped as she felt the waves of his sadness crash over her still fragile psyche. Suzume's head snapped up in panic. "Schu!" She cried; adding. "Can't…Hold… Please!"

"Suzu!" Schuldig yelped; closing his eyes, sending all the strength he could to her splintering shields. /Damn it Otoha! Snap the fuck out of it!/

/Wha? Are you in my head?/ Ianto thought, sounding drunk, and very confused.

/Yes, you dumb ass, did Torchwood take all of your memories or something?/ The Flame haired man replied in question. Kuso! Those ass hats at T1 really did a number on his lover.

/They must have, so why are you in my head?/

/Insanely powerful telepath, and this is more effective than yelling, Now do keep up Otoha/

/That's not even my real name, I don't think I have one… wait, do you have one Schu? Suzu, Suzume named me Otoha, maybe she can name you?/

That actually gave the other man pause. It was, not an argument, but a heated discussion topic. His Not Name name, maybe it. Was time... /We'll talk about that later ok? Listen, right now you need to raise your shields, can you do that for me?/ Schuldig pressed calmly. If his lover didn't the Telepath could break all of their minds when he knocked them out.

/I…I think so…/

KEKEKEKEKEKEKEKEKEKEKEKE

Ianto came to in his bed; rubbing a hand down his face before getting up. Hearing soft murmurs from the living room, he headed there. A slow smile spread across his face when he entered to find Schuldig actually singing to Suzume. The Telepath's hand was constantly running across her forehead; where she seemingly slept in his lap.

"She'll need food, we all do." Schuldig informed; not looking up. The flame haired man often caught often caught random surface thoughts from those he had a mental link with. Made it almost impossible to sneak up on him.

"Sure; I'll put some coffee on too." Jones replied; remembering what their doctors had told them back then. God the Telepath was going to be pissed for sure, and not just at him.

"Otoha…? I'm sorry… I saw what just happened, and I'm sorry…" Schuldig stated; actually sounding upset, but not really knowing what else to say.

"The backlash could have killed Suzu or woken Utahime… You did what you had to Schu Schu, so thanks." Jones smiled, knowing full well he was the Only one to call the Telepath that, and walk away mind intact.

"Good, you remember most of it now, yeah? Just for the record We will always love you." The Telepath grinned back.

~KE~

Ianto had nodded before turning to head for the kitchen. He hung his head; he hadn't meant to, but the emotions had just poured out. He'd felt Suzu, and Schu's love, their trust in him. It had been so lovely, and such a comfort. To feel anything other than the animosity, the distrust he often felt from T3. Even before Lisa went full Cyber-woman, mentally at least. It really, honestly, hadn't been much better. Jones knew his coworkers had a right to feel it, but it still hurt.

He was never really a part of that team anyway,was he?

It had been so long since he'd let his emotions run free. Thank God Schu was there, if Utahime had been woken, uncontrolled, and feeding off his pain…

Ianto would never forgive himself if that happened. All the damage his Hime could do. Torchwood 3 would have nowhere to run. Jones admonished himself for smiling at the thought. A Dark Goddess by his side; let's see them mock, and belittle him now.

I'll give you tea boy!

"Who am I smiting this time?" Suzume snickered as she sat at the breakfast bar behind him. Remembering how Otoha would joke about setting her Goddess form free on people he disliked, usually one of the Scientists

"What? Oh um… no one… everyone, this bakayaro from work." Jones mumbled sheepishly, Staying faced away from her.

She only grinned, not that he saw. "Y-yan Yan Toe…" Suzume mused; adding. "If you prefer it, we can certainly call you that." She offered; she'd miss her Otoha, but she could learn to love this new man.

He turned to her; abandoning his meal preparations for the moment. Ianto reached out to brush his hand along her cheek. "That name is a mask meant to keep me hidden, I want it gone. I want to keep the one you gave me." Jones decided. Leaning forward he pulled her in for a kiss; feeling good about the decision he'd made.
