Day 226 l Christmas Party Mingle
[Ianto has, predictably, gone a bit overboard for the Christmas party he and Jack are throwing. The entire apartment has been decorated; there's a tree with gold and silver ornaments and twinkling lights, garlands draped over doorways, candles in every window and festive nicknacks scattered about. It looks like something out of a magazine, and may make visitors a little afraid to actually touch anything. There's also a lot of mistletoe around (one of the side effects of living with Captain Jack Harkness) so it's probably a good idea to keep one eye on the ceiling at all times.

Of course he's made plenty of coffee and some appetizers, so he hopes people really do respond to the invitation Jack sent out, otherwise there are going to be a hell of a lot of leftovers.]

	[Jack laughs outright at that, genuinely tickled.] Really not. I'm secure enough in my kissing skills not to need any more feedback than you've already given me! [More gently, ducking his head a little as if to try and get Reid to meet his eyes.] I meant, are you all right? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ Good luck with that. Actually, there's a quick glance before he goes back to being avoiding. ] Yeah, I'm fine. Why wouldn't I be? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Gently] Because I get the feeling that kissing guys - especially in public - isn't a thing that you do every day. [A chuckle] At least when there aren't mistletoe bots around! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Before I came here, kissing anyone in public wasn't exactly something I did every day. [ Which is more of a confession than he might've been gunning for, but who is he kidding? ] I've lived through two mistlebot invasions so far. I guess you just get used to it eventually.

	[Jack quirks a playful eyebrow.] I was kinda hoping this might have been actually enjoyable than something you're just used to! [Then he remembers he said he wasn't asking for a review.] Anyway, thanks for indulging me. I appreciate it! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ Clearing his throat, oh god why are you putting him in this position, Jack? Why? ] ...There's no impenetrable forcefield here. I think the fact that I indulged you to begin with should say something about, uh... if it was enjoyable or not. [ If it wasn't enjoyable, he wouldn't have gone along with it. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Jack grins slowly.] Good! So, does this mean we can go ahead and arrange that double date some time? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2013-07-17 08:04 pm UTC (link)
	Double date? [ He very very nearly backs out on the spot, but... that's not the way they do things, is it? He's here, isn't he? He's making an effort and that wouldn't be worth a whole lot if he didn't continue to make an effort. ] Sure... I'll bring it up with Kitty, see what she thinks. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	foreverjack 2013-07-21 11:54 am UTC (link)
	Oh, I'm pretty sure she's all up for the idea! [Eyes twinkling, a little bit evil, because Reid is just too easy to tease.] You both get on with Ianto, anyway, don't you? I think we could have a lot of fun! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2013-07-21 05:00 pm UTC (link)
	We do. [ Clearing his throat. Stop giving him bad feelings about this! ] I, uh... I look forward to it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	foreverjack 2013-07-23 06:42 pm UTC (link)
	Good! [And he decides to relent on the poor boy.] Well! I guess I’d better stop hogging you all to myself and let you go and socialise! [An actual friendly smile.] We’ll get together again soon, eh? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2013-07-23 09:28 pm UTC (link)
	Sure... we'll keep in touch. Thanks again for the invite, Jack. [ An actual friendly smile in return, before making a start to go mingle. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	foreverjack 2013-07-24 07:56 pm UTC (link)
	No worries – glad you could come! [He touches his fingers to his forehead in a very casual salute, and wanders off to find someone else to play with.] (Reply to this) (Parent)
