Author: badly-knitted
Characters: Jack, Ianto
Rating: G
Written For: Challenge 314 – Weeds at tw100
Spoilers: Nada.
Summary: Ianto gets on with the weeding while Jack watches.
Disclaimer: I don't own Torchwood, or the characters.
A/N: I decided to continue with the Hub weed invasion, because really, Jack was bound to be watching.
A/N2: This is a pair of drabbles. I could have posted them separately, but I'm lazy today and I have another possible idea for tomorrow anyway. I just need to write it.

I love Janto: I know - you should see our garden, lol!
Stray jobs always wind up being left to Ianto. Whether they're in his job description or not, they end up being his responsibility because no one else can be bothered to do them.
I guess they'll never know whether the weedlings are alien or not. Unless Ianto takes pity on some and puts them in plant pots to see what they grow into ;)
Thank you!

SV: Termites would be bad, but I think they prefer wood to concrete. Unless they're alien concrete-munching termites.
Nature provbides the solution to a lot of problems, but I seriously don't envy your spider infestation even if they are helping to keep the moth numbers down. Try cedar wood balls, they're effective as a moth repellent and shouldn't make you sneeze. They also smell a lot better than mothballs. Clothes chests used to be made of cedar to keep moths away.
Yep, you can pretty much count on mutant insects around the Rift. The weeds could be mutant weeds too, who knows!
Thank you!

Jack stood leaning on the railing, watching Ianto painstakingly digging small weeds out of crevices in the concrete floor and walls.
"You could lend a hand, you know, instead of just standing there watching," Ianto commented dryly, not even bothering to look up from his task.
"But I far prefer the view I'm getting from here," Jack told him innocently.
"That's what I thought. You're staring at my arse again, aren't you?"
"It's well worth staring at," Jack replied with a leer. "Although I can think of better things to do with it than just stare."
"That doesn't surprise me."
.
OoOoOoOoO

Ianto listened with amusement and a healthy dose of lust as Jack detailed all the things he'd like to be doing with Ianto's arse.
"As much fun as that sounds, and believe me it really does sound like fun, I need to get this weeding finished before we get taken over by rampant vegetation."
"Which begs the question, why don't you just use weed-killer and be done with it?"
"Oh, let's see now: Nosy, Myfanwy, Velvet… Need I explain further?"
"Ah. I see your point."
"Yep. This is the safest way if we don't want to risk poisoning our pets."

The End
