He was sure Ianto was interested on some level. He had very clear memories of Ianto growing hard against him the night they caught the pterodactyl but Ianto seemed the only person on earth completely resistant to his charms.
Why You Should Read This:
Ianto Jones is often portrayed as being pretty damaged, in one way or another. This very well-written story takes that general level of damaged!Ianto up several notches. Ianto is one seriously fucked up dude, having been brutally abused by his parents, and has some really bizarre notions about sex (among other things). Jack wants to help but doesn’t quite know what to do. Then Ianto finds something in the Archives that helps Jack start the healing processes.
The only problem I have with these two stories is that, though complete in themselves, they are obviously the first part of a much longer series, which, unfortunately, the author hasn’t completed. She wrote me recently mentioning that she might go back to them. I hope so.
