Day 414 / Open action
Jack's out and about today but he's starting to like Mistletoe Days less and less the longer he's here. And especially just now – given the current delicate state of his blue-band relationship, getting caught by a bot today just seems like it'll be asking for trouble!

Nevertheless, he will inevitably get caught. A man can't live without his coffee, and he's determined to make up for his binge drinking over the last couple of days (or twenty years) by getting back into his early morning swim routine.

He's kind of looking for Ianto too. A little too nervous to actually call him and get this talking thing started, more kind of hoping he'll just run into him and – well. Things will just happen.

((OOC: Decided to put this in a separate post for easier navigation on potentially long threads!))

((Note: NSFW happenings in the Ianto thread (surprise surprise!!!) ))

	"Yeah," he says heavily, with a small, sad smile of gratitude at the commiserations. He shrugs. "I don't know. Perhaps not so much mad as just frustrated? Seems like we've just lost the ability to communicate with each other - if we ever had it in the first place. Makes sorting out the issues those twenty years threw up at us feel rather impossible."

	"I get that." He frowns. "I'm no expert on relationships or whatever, but... you can't let this get you down, alright? Then you're just lettin' 'em win." Them being the wardens, of course. He doesn't have a set solution here but it seems like such a waste. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It's exactly the right advice to give. Jack's chin goes up, defiance written all over him. "Oh, believe me, I'm not going to let them win. I've worked too hard at this to walk away now. If we can get through the Spike thing, we can get through anything!" The slightest of pauses. "Well, this is a bit about Spike too, to be fair." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Aidan quirks a brow — he doesn't know Spike, but instinctually doesn't like the guy. Not that he's one to judge who people end up in bed with but there was a lot of biting not that long ago and people seem to forget that way too soon. "Yeah? What'd that jerk do?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Nothing!" Surprisingly quick to defend Spike, especially after that talk with him, because he may be hurting but even he is aware that not much of this is actually Spike's fault. Not intentionally, anyway. He shrugs. "Nothing except be perfect and romantic and easy to talk to and everything else Ianto wants." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That's frustrating. It's so much easier to handle being mad about something if you can at least pin it to a person. Aidan sighs, shifting his weight and feeling very much like maybe he shouldn't dig in too deep into this. Of course, he can't actually help himself. "D'ya... you think Ianto likes 'im better?"

	"Right now?" His jaw tightens. "I'd say it's pretty much a dead cert." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He winces in sympathy - that's no good. That's really terrible actually and he's not sure he wants to soothe Jack with empty reassurances right now. Seems false, especially since he doesn't quite understand the full situation. "'m sorry, man... real sorry. This sucks." (Reply to this) (Parent)
