69 Memory Lane - Monday

Jan 21, 2008 10:06

As soon as Ianto had gotten done laughing at Jack for falling out of a tree he'd helped the older man get out of his clothes and into a hot shower. Jack's back had looked like some sort of goth patchwork quilt with his black and blue marks and Ianto had merely rolled his eyes and shoved the older man towards a fluffy towel when Jack had tried to ( Read more... )

Now that the 'boys' had had some time to try out the tracking program she sent, Tosh decided to see if she could catch Jack or Ianto at work, and check in on things.

Truth be told, she was also sort of hoping they might have stumbled over a new artifact or something that needed studying.

Hello, is anyone there?

Tosh bowed her head, feeling chastised and stupid. Jack's reference to Mary had hurt, but it had been spot on, and she should have learned her lesson the first time.

I promise Jack, I won't speak to anyone other than you or Ianto. It was careless of me to let the conversation go beyond checking her clearance. Should I change my log-ins and screen names?

I don't think you need to do that, Tosh. As I said, just be a bit more careful the next time you're talking to someone, all right?

He was genuinely trying not to send her into a complete dither, it was always such a delicate balance with Tosh.

Re: Via Instant Messenger wevegotrules January 22 2008, 02:40:18 UTC

I will. Although it would be a little easier if you two would send us more to do, you know.

Tosh appreciated that Jack was being understanding, and not calling her on the carpet. And she hoped that he picked up on the lighthearted tone she tried to inject into her answer.

Which reminds, I did get that translation finished finally. I catalogued the artifact according to Ianto's instructions, and entered the translation into the computer archive. I thought, with the extra free time that leaves, I could go over the weather data as you compile it, and maybe set up a cross-reference with what we've collected in the past. Check for matching patterns and that.

I'll have Ianto send through the latest bit of alien goo we got attacked by this weekend, I'd like a full analysis on it's composition and maybe also write up any thoughts or theories on whether or not it could be used for tunneling projects.

Since it about ate through the Lair!

And Tosh? I'll try to work with Owen on a vacation, all right?

Re: Via Instant Messenger wevegotrules January 22 2008, 03:02:13 UTC

Ooh, alien goo! Jack could probably hear Tosh's happy squee.

I'll get right on it as soon it arrives, and send Ianto regular reports on my findings.

And thank you, Jack. It's been too quiet here since you left. I think I'd like a little time out of Cardiff, maybe just a week or two, would be wonderful.

Re: Via Instant Messenger time_watcher January 22 2008, 03:06:03 UTC

I'll speak with Owen, Jack typed, trying not to sound like the giant push over he could be when it came to Tosh.

And other little sister types.

Talk to you soon, Tosh.

At least Tosh wasn't aware enough of how much of a pushover Jack could be, and didn't knowingly try to use it against him?

"Goodnight, Jack," she said fondly at the screen.
