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.]

	[He's seen Dirk around enough to have put the face to the name and the voice he talked to on his first day here. He ambles over while Dirk's checking out the food.] Hey, thanks for coming! About time we met properly in the flesh, don't you think? [He offers a hand to shake, along with a brilliant grin.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh, hey. [ Whoops, he's talking with his mouth full. Okay, Dirk, swallow first then talk. Social niceties. He shakes Jack's hand. ] Nice digs. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Jack really doesn't care about the mouthful of food. He just shakes the hand and grins.] Thanks! I think most of the interior decoration - and especially the Christmas look - is down to Ianto rather than me, but I'm certainly not complaining! All the brickwork reminds me of home anyway."

	The brickwork wasn't up to him, though, it came with the place. Looks all old-time and homey, though. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	True, but he did choose the apartment. [Pretty much. He glances round, seeing the place through new eyes, realising he's already got very used to it in a little under a month. He grins.] This is certainly a step up from the sewer chic of the last place I lived in, anyway. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Tell me you don't literally mean that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	What, the sewer chic? Well, no, it wasn't quite sewers, but it was underground and had that sort of look to it. And water running through it. Hell, it's a secret organisation's headquarters! It's appropriate. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ah. No, that sounds pretty badass, actually. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	No, she slipped through the Rift. Cardiff sits on a Rift in time and space. Have to say, she’s one of the cuter things that’s slipped through! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Cardiff? The one in Wales? Huh. Learn something new every day. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Jack gives him a mysterious look, tapping the side of his nose.] State secret. We do try not to let on to the general public! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Secret's safe with me. There's no such place as Wales where I'm from. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Good point. Though it’s all pretty much academic here anyway, of course! (Reply to this) (Parent)
