sd4ianto: possibly. I was going to have Ianto having Jack's healing in the dream as well but that wasn't how the story turned out and I didn't see any point in changing it.
I love Janto: loaded? Yep. It would have been nice to see Jack in a suit on screen.
None of them spoke. Ianto still felt incredibly sick. He didn't dare look at any of them. Logically he knew that it wasn't his fault. It wasn't the fault of any of them.
Aliens made them do it and Ianto wanted to laugh at that. But the reality hadn't been at all funny. He still had blood on his hands and god he had nearly killed Jack. And Gwen. And Tosh had nearly blown up the hub. Owen was in the hospital, none of them had gotten a chance to visit him yet. He took in a shaky breath.
"Right, I think everyone should take a breather," Jack said. "Get cleaned up." Ianto still didn't dare look at him. He couldn't look at anyone. He closed his eyes and saw blood dripping. Jack put his hand on Ianto's shoulder and he stiffened. He was in no state to accept any type of comfort from anyone. If Ianto had looked at Jack in that moment he would have only seen concern. Maybe it was just as well that he didn't.
