ianto jones, jack harkness

Who: Ianto Jones and OPEN
Where: The streets of Colligo
When: After this and any subsequent events.
What: Walking and looking for clues

It was difficult, working without leads, contacts, allies. He was good, he was one of the best, but he wasn't a magician. He couldn't conjure the man out of thin air. Still, all his intelligence pointed to Harkness being here. They wouldn't have sent a top agent if they weren't completely sure; at least, he hoped they wouldn't.

He'd settled into his assigned flat, although that hadn't taken long. He didn't expect to spend much time there, it wasn't like wanted assassins just came up and knocked on the door. Once that was done, he headed out into the streets, not sure what he was looking for. Yet.

OOC: Meet Jones. Ianto Jones. Ianto was fired from Torchwood One and had his memory erased for voicing doubts about the use of the Ghost Machine. The government was still interested in him, though, so he was transferred and became a secret agent. He never returned to Cardiff and never worked for Torchwood Three. As far as he knows, Jack Harkness is a suspected assassin he has been assigned to track.

	"I am, you just don't know it!" Like it'd sound any more sensible to tell him the truth. "I'm trying to find a friend, okay, and they're the only people who might possibly know how to find him." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Looks to me like you walked in here of your own free will." He glares at the other man. "Jones. Ianto Jones. In Her Majesty's service." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Not here this building-- oh nevermind, the more I try to answer truthfully, the less you'll believe me." He scoffs, "Her Majesty's service... Torchwood is one of Her Majesty's services." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Well, that's not much of a stretch, since I'm not inclined to believe you anyway." His vision went blurry for a split second, and there was a buzzing in his ears he convinced himself was fake. "Stop saying that!" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Would it be better if I'd made up some kind of story? Oh, we were just gonna make out and she has this weird gun fantasy? It's not my fault you don't know what Torchwood is. Stop saying what?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Oh yeah, that's really convincing." He rolled his eyes. "Try harder next time." He shakes his head. "Stop talking about your delusions." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Hmmm... I wrestled the gun from her?" He made a face. "I guess I won't talk, then, since you think the truth is delusion, but you want me to answer your questions. Hard to do both, though." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	notjusta_teaboy 2011-11-17 10:11 pm UTC (link)
	"A gun that you carried in here? A gun that she was scared of?" He gestures with the gun. "You will talk, and you will answer my questions." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He gritted his teeth again, but nodded. Great. Jones-Ianto-Jones would just keep convincing himself that Jack was delusional because he asked questions that Jack didn't have standard answers to. Great! He should've done more lessons in how to get through interrogations in anachronistic settings. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"The only person on record with that name died in World War Two. So are you going under an assumed name, or did you manage to go," he looked at Harkness more closely, "twenty-some years without acquiring any official documentation?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Damn! Why did Jones-Ianto-Jones have to have done his research?! Had he been following Jack awhile now? Way to notice, Jack... "Assumed name." That was true, at least. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He nodded. "And why were you stalking that woman?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	timeaftertime 2011-11-18 04:16 am UTC (link)
	"Because." He'd already said, but no, it was delusional, so why repeat it? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Well what am I supposed to do?! You want me to answer your questions, you want me to tell the truth, but some of that you think is delusional, so am I supposed to say it anyway, or say nothing?!" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
