A red welt curling at the back of his neck, finger-shaped marks on his arms and wrists, an uneven cut on his forehead. Many wounds that should have been kissed better, soothed and caressed and forgotten through other kinds of touch.

Not that Jack would dare, not so soon after Lisa. Ianto still hasn't stopped flinching whenever Jack touches him; every clap on the back and nudge of the arm producing a momentary tensing in his shoulders. It's not enough to make Jack stop, of course, not when Ianto so clearly needs to be reminded that he is still a member of this team, still appreciated and needed and touched with the same fondness that Jack touches everyone else. But it keeps Jack from suggesting anything more, from letting his hands linger too often.

~_~_~_~_~_~

It’s an ordinary morning, three weeks after Jack came back. Ianto is washing the cafetiere and thinking about buying gingerbread syrup for Christmas. Tosh would like that and Owen wouldn’t, which seems like reason enough, but Ianto is still undecided on where he stands in relation to flavoured syrups. Coffee should be tasty enough without additions, but sometimes an extra flavour can turn the coffee-related experience into something different and new. And Ianto is a strong believer in expanding the range of coffee-related experiences.

A week had passed, and there were still no signs of it wearing off. When Ianto returned from feeding the prisoners, the experimental animals, and Owen, Jack was asleep on top of Tosh's laptop.

He poked him sharply. "Get off, you'll get fur in the keyboard." Jack gave him a scandalised look, jumped to the floor, and rubbed against Ianto's ankles. "Yes, yes, I'll feed you in a second..."

Excerpt:
~_~_~_~_~
Gwen picked Jack up. He hooked his paws over her shoulder and bumped his cheek against hers. His nose felt cold and damp on her skin. A deep, contented purr sounded in her ear.

She laughed and used her free hand to scratch behind his ears. "No, you don't mind this at all, do you?" she crooned. "Don't think Ianto's having such a good time, mind."

She put Jack down on an armchair. He pounced playfully at her hand as she straightened up, and she pulled it away with a laughing shriek. He feinted at the other hand, and when she reached out to push him away, triumphantly wrapped his front legs around her wrist and kicked at her forearm with his back feet, claws extended just a little. She wrestled herself free. "Get off, you. Go play with Ianto if you're gonna be rough."

Comment or Excerpt from fic: This is one of the most gorgeously written fics that I've ever had the pleasure to read... and believe me, I've read a LOT! Taking place slightly before "Exit Wounds," but post-2x09 "Something Borrowed," it starts off with Ianto's body carrying a "foreign entity" (*coughBABYcough*) and what follows are a series of events that're nothing like any mpreg fics I've ever read! Very unexpected! And the twists and turns in this fic just keep you at the edge of your seat!

*starry eyed* I'm in absolute AWE!!

*_______________________________________________________*

I don't have the slightest clue how else to explain this fic other than to urge you to read it yourself, so GO READ!!

EXCERPT:

Ianto... froze at the unmistakable sound of Jack's revolver cocking behind him... Ianto slowly raised both hands... and... slowly turned... to look up at Jack... "Jack... What..." What did I do...

"We're not going to hurt you," Jack said... "... You're showing up funny on the scanners, and we need to figure out what's going on before it takes you over or kills you..."

Owen... pointed a hand-held scanner at Ianto's chest, sweeping it slowly downward... "Damn... Definitely something alive in there--pretty small, though. Get it with the singularity scalpel, no trouble..." Owen let out a strange noise then, staring at the scanner... "Haven't seen one... in a long while, but... Homo sap, I reckon."

Ianto blinked at it. "It's human?"

"It's a baby..."
