Up in the Tourist Office, Ianto's phone buzzed discreetly in his pocket. Checking his messages, he found a text from Jack, and frowned. Jack was supposed to be on a conference call with General Sully of UNIT; what was he doing sending Ianto texts? There was only one way to find out; he opened the message.
J: Ianto, help!
The phone buzzed again.
J: I can't take much more of this!
Ianto's frown deepened as a third text arrived:
J: He's been rambling on for two hours and still hasn't got to the point of this call!
With a shrug, Ianto sent a message back.
I: He's a UNIT General; they're all a bit long-winded.
The response was almost immediate.
J: Not like this! Five more minutes and my brain will be leaking out my ears!
This was accompanied by a sad face emoji.
I: It can't be that bad.
J: He's telling me about his wife's prize-winning hamsters and his daughter's pet petunia!
J: Or the other way around.
J: Please rescue me!
The last message was followed by several praying hands emojis.
Ianto sighed, thumbs tapping out another text.
I: I'll be right there.
It was always something…
