Hard to picture loving those bugs! However, I am glad that Owen now has a "son"!

I get the feeling Sexy is not really going to be overly helpful finding Drago...she knows better than to irritate Ianto, and will happily take the Parentals on a massive wild goose chase until she's told they can come back. She's well aware that her daughter would be a hellion if they caught up...what's that song say? She's sweet but a little bit psycho... yeah, that would be Ianto's TARDIS.
The boys deserve to relax and honeymoon as long as they want...if that means they return to the Hub with Ianto wearing a frontpack with a six month old, then so be it.
Cute that Owen has taken on Elvis as his wee minion. Should be scary as time goes on. Little bug will likely be better behaved than his siblings, as I doubt Tosh will put up with much nonsense.
Who knows how long the boys will be gone in Hub time...if the come home to discover Alice and Rhys planning a wedding, there could be some fireworks from Jack (shock and all that, though I'm sure he'll be on board once he thinks about it).
The Parentals need to get a grip and learn that they can't dictate Ianto's life... forcing him to go total Archivist on them and deliver a harsh smack down won't be fun for anyone.

Oh! Elvis and Owen are just too cute! The boys have to come home and face the music before River and the Doctors find them. Andy and Kev are doing good with the assorted little ones. Owen and Tosh have Elviswho is going to look human soon enough. Alice, Stephen and Rhys are. doing good and Gwen is gone! Which is the best part of all of this.
So...maybe it's time for the Fat Lady to sing? D.

1-So lovely, their simple marriage ceremony done on Boeshane as they wanted. Only glitch is that picture which the parental Tardises might be able to hone in on.
2-Those parental Tardises do like Jack and could decide to use the "baby shark virus" excuse to NOT locate Jack and Ianto, at least for a bit of time (like a few years!). Keep River away from weapons please. Let's not traumatize the baby and Ianto.
3-Owen and his bug… hope the kid will mutate into a humanoid appearance soon if Owen and Tosh are going to keep him.
4-That mental image of Jack running on the beach with the floppy dick ... "Calgon, take me away"!.

"Dada Owie"? Now I'm scared.
Well, I suppose that's one way to have a traditional Boeshannian wedding. If you want it done right just go to Boeshanne. Just keep the good food coming, Jack.
So, what brought Andy and Kev back? Obviously they weren't worried about Elvis.
As for River and the Doctors 3, I'm almost afraid to wonder what they're up to. As long as they don't find our boys too soon. Jack and Ianto deserve their honeymoon.

"But … it's our honeymoon" Ianto sighed, watching Jack tie the rope around his waist and look apologetically at his love "Jack!"
"Sorry Tiger… someone has to get him out. He's just a little baby" Jack replied and Ianto threw his hands up in agreement.

TWO HOURS EARLIER
It was a wonderful little space with bush all around them, the clearing they were in was only interrupted by the occasional birdsong. They had been here for a while.. like almost six months their time, the TARDIS sitting silently out in the wood shed as Jack and Ianto indulged in some alone time.
Ianto was getting bigger every day and this morning Jack felt their little one moving for the first time, his excitement levels going through the roof as he revelled in the incoming life. They had been laying there on the bed when Ianto had heard it, his smile fading as Jack's slowly drained away as well.
That grinding noise they knew too well.
"You are kidding" Jack said slowly.
"I thought we would have longer" Ianto sighed rolling off the bed and puling on his clothes as Jack rose to do the same, both of them getting as far as the bottom half of the stairs before the door flew open and the Doctor staggered inside.
"Quick! The little shit fell down the well and … and only Jack can get hi, back!"
"Oh my god" Jack was horrified, running for the door as Ianto carefully took the stairs and he got to Sexy just as the doors started to close.
"Oh no you don't!" he roared and the doors stopped, then swing open again to allow him in before slamming behind him. At the flight console were three apologetic looking people … Owen… River…. Ten. Ianto looked around warily for the other doctors and saw that they were clearly not in attendance.
"If you are looking for 11 and 12.. they left" River said softly "Hello darling… look … I can explain…"
"He is down a well. Apparently you were watching him and he fell down a well" Ianto droned calmly "And for some reason only Jack can get him back."
"Yes. He's not hurt, the water broke his fall. Shallow enough to stand in … Radiation in the bottom from some fuel cells from something" Owen said as he looked nervously at Jack "Why we have to hurry. No telling how he will react to it … I mean ... he is of modified DNA and such but that is no guarantee. Not with that stuff."
"And how pray tell, did he fall in?" Ianto asked as he rubbed his belly "A precious little life, his innocent mind likely not even aware of danger and… down he goes. Like… he just walked over and flipped himself in?"
Ah… well … maybe I was playing a little rough?" Owen grimaced, now looking like he wanted to cry "We were playing ball and I kicked it to him a little hard and he… sort of …."
Owen made hand motions miming someone falling off a cliff or something as Ianto face palmed and Jack started to remove his braces as he spoke "Right… do we have enough rope and did anyone find the harness?"
"Why are you getting naked?" Owen asked "It's Radiation."
"It's OK" the Doctor assured Owen with a pat of his hand "He always gets naked for anything radioactive. It's like a rule."
Ianto sat carefully to hold his belly tightly and scold silently that things like this will happen but it is not good and every time this happens there will be consequences for a little baby that goes too far.
They landed and Jack raced out, running for the well and leaning over it to curse softly "I see him. Hang on little fella… I'm coming. It's OK, don't be scared."
Ianto got there in time to see Jack hastily clipping the harness on and making sure the rope around the well's top stay was solidly tied.
"But … it's our honeymoon" Ianto sighed, watching Jack tie the rope around his waist and look apologetically at his love "Jack!"
"Sorry Tiger… someone has to get him out. He's just a little baby" Jack replied and Ianto threw his hands up in agreement.
Jack slipped over the side and yodelled as the rope gave, hurtling him down and the thud at the bottom had Owen crying out in alarm "OH GOD Tell me he didn't land on him!"
"Yes, most likely" Ianto muttered to himself "headfirst!"
Then the Doctor was there with a second rope going over and they started to pull. Ianto looked around and wondered where the hell they were and how they even got here "Mother? Where are we?"
"Look. He's a clever little sod, clever and sly to beat the band. We tried keeping the door shut but he got in the damned TARDIS and would not get out, we were in there trying to tease him out with sweeties when he set off the flight controls and we wound up here. Of course she was angry and spat him out the moment we touched down and refused to move. Husband ws trying to cajole her into taking us all home, including him when Owen found the ball and they decided to play a bit. OK? Just a normal, every day accident!" she sighed "He gets bored so easily."
"Like … no baby eating plants here anyway" Ianto said in a snide voice and she rolled her eyes at the age old argument.
"Here he comes!" Owen sad as he reached over the edge, almost toppling in as he screamed "GIVE HIM TO ME GIVE HIM HERE!"
Owen then fell back cradling his little man, sobbing with relief as he hugged him and kissed his face "Daddy is so sorry. I love my little man oh Elvis … don't scare Daddy!"
"Elvis" Ianto said slowly then sighed.
Of course it was the bug. Traditionally in a litter the weakest bug is the runt and is the strangest, weird little one is to be abandoned. Predators likely kill those young within hours of their parentals leaving them behind. If Owen had not wanted him he would likely be left to fend for himself.
Instead of the cruel death of a Runt … Elvis is fast becoming Owen's mini-me and frankly people… it's alarming how big he is getting. In the two weeks the men have been gone in this timeframe (even if it is about six theirs) Elvis is the size of a two year old.
And looks at fucking crafty as one too.
He is starting to look humanoid … like Owen!
They assimilate.
