The man in the retro military clothing and the man in the suit stared at each other.
The man in the suit kept his hands folded behind his back. His posture, suit, jacket, tie, and hair were perfect. Nothing was out of place.
The man in the pseudo-uniform wore no jacket, revealing dark blue braces over a lighter blue shirt. He wore no tie, his shirt was unbuttoned at the collar, and his hair was rumpled.
The man in uniform was grinning broadly. "Ee-" he started, sounding out the complicated Welsh name on the C.V.
"Yantoh," the other said. "I prefer Yantoh Jones."
He nodded and leaned over a nearby desk, picking up a pencil. "Yantoh," he repeated. "Is that with a Y?"
"I, sir. I-a-n-t-o."
He chuckled as he wrote it on the page. "You Welsh. You know out of all the languages and dialects I know, Welsh is the only thing that gives me trouble?"
"It involves several interesting tricks of the tongue and throat."
The man stood and looked this Ianto up and down. He grinned and winked, testing the limits.
Ianto gave him a small smile and a nod that was almost a curt bow. "I trust that everything is satisfactory?"
"Captain Jack Harkness. Welcome to Torchwood Three."
