The Torchwood Drabble Files

by badly-knitted

A collection of Torchwood drabbles that continues to grow. Thanks to everyone who's making this possible. You're greatly appreciated, so I'm reinstating an old game - the writer of every 100th review gets to request a drabble/ficlet of their choice. Still using a T rating to cover anything I might write, just to be safe.

258. Complex Calculations

Title: Complex Calculations

Author: badly-knitted

Characters: Ianto, mentions Jack, Tosh, the Doctor & the TARDIS

Rating: G

Spoilers: Nada.

Summary: Ianto had set himself a formidable task, but with some help from his and Jack's friends, he's come to a fitting conclusion.

Disclaimer: I don't own Torchwood, or the characters.

A/N: First of five drabbles for owensheart, who prompted me with 'Ianto discovers the actual date of Jack's birthday and decides to surprise him with a little celebration.'

I love Janto: Ianto and Tosh are friends, they tell each other things, and I'm sure Tosh has helped Ianto when he's been injured or sore, so he knows how good she is at soothing a battered body.

Rhys is feeling much better now, he bought Tosh flowers to say thank you.

Ianto sat back, grinning; he'd finally done it!

It had taken him weeks. There'd been talks with the Doctor and the TARDIS, help with calculations from Tosh and mainframe, but he'd actually managed to convert Jack's birthdate on Boeshane into the earth calendar and work out his birthday.

November 15th.

He snorted. That made Jack a Scorpio. Not that Ianto really believed in Astrology, he was too down-to-earth for that, but there was no denying it fit.

Forceful, passionate, exciting, magnetic, he was all of those. Also secretive, obstinate, jealous and resentful, but no one was perfect.

Not even Jack.
