Who: Owen and Ianto
What: Talking and drinking
When: Monday night

Ianto was greeted at the door by Lyssa who smiled at him then looked mournfully at the beer he was carrying. Instead for her there was milkshake which she seemed happy to wander off to the kitchen with while he went to the living room where he hoped he'd find Owen.

"Hey." He held up the beer. "My way of saying thanks. Amazed you still want to see me after the last week." He looked slightly awkward standing about for a moment. Then he suddenly spoke.

"I think I just asked Gwen out on a date."

Owen wrapped an arm around her waist, yet held the beer just out of her reach. "I'll give you something else for the milkshake, but not the beer." He waggled his eyebrows at her and turned back to Ianto.

"No, you're not Jack. Or me. You're better than both of us. And if you ever tell anyone I said that, I'll deny it and shoot you. That said... You have to figure out which one you like. If you won't do it by shagging, then what do you want?"

	"Contrary to your popular belief... the..." Ianto gave up, he realised who he was sitting with. "I want someone I can talk with, spend time with, just sit in silence sometimes and be comfortable. You two must know that, can't just be about sex." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"Me? Admit there's more to it than just sex..." He looked over at Lyssa and felt a little soft spot in his heart. It was more than just sex with her. Not that he'd admit that to Ianto. But the bloke had a point. Lyssa, Owen felt, was his match. He turned back to Ianto, raising an eyebrow. He was going to regret this, he could feel it.

"It is more than just sex. I know..." He sighed, hugging Lyssa closer, resting his head on her shoulder. "So what you have to do, coffee boy, is figure out who it is? Gwen or blondie. What is her name again? Doesn't matter. Which one do you talk with. Which one are you comfortable with. Which one is your match..." He sighed. "Shame to see the blond go, though. Better tits then Gwen, I imagine."

"Reinette, her name is Reinette." Ianto shook his head smiling. Typical Owen, make a good point then the last sentence shatters the point he can actually be understanding by bringing the conversation back to breasts. Ianto sighed.

"I don't think I want to see Reinette go either. Now I'm back to myself I think it's time I saw her again after I see Gwen and deal with that."

Owen rolled his eyes, adopting a very fake Welsh accent as he spoke to Ianto. "Ok, Reinette. Her name is Reinette. Happy?" He went back to his own accent, taking a long pull of his beer.

"You need to deal with it, Ianto. See Gwen. See Reinette. Ooh, make one of those lists, aye? You like lists. Put the Gwen on one side. Then, put the Reinette on the other." His eyes widened and he bounced on the sofa. "See who has the most points!"

	Ianto rolled his eyes at Owen's attempt at his accent, so it was quite funny but he'd never admit it. "Paper and pen. Let's do it now." He sounded serious. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Good." Owen jumped up and went into the other room. It had been his office, but it had been converted into a nursery. He was lucky enough to be allowed to keep his desk there. He got out a pen and paper, returning to sit beside Lyssa. He handed the paper and pen to Ianto, wanting to be able to keep his hands free to drink. "Ok, who do you want to start with?"

	Ianto took the paper. "Gwen." He wrote down, folding the paper in two. "Good points, bad points." He tapped the pen thoughtfully. "Bad first then good?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"She can be a right prat sometimes. She's stubborn. She gets it in her head that she wants to do things her way and fuck anyone else." He sighed, rubbing Lyssa's shoulder. "Oh, and she does this little ugly thing with her tongue..." He snorted. "Maybe we don't need that." He looked at Ianto. "Ok, what do you think is bad about her?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"She's his ex." Lyssa felt the need to say that. "He knows things." She offered Owen the milkshake as she settled against him. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Well she can care too much, she seems to think she knows better and sometimes I used to think she was getting close to me just to find out about Jack or least get closer to Jack." He surprised himself at how easy that was. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"You notice how she thinks she's his second in command or some shit?" He held onto Lyssa, taking a sip of her milkshake. As soon as he did, he regretted it, frowning a bit. He liked milkshake, but it tasted shitty after a good beer. "She always wants to go with him or sit and talk with him in the office. Sometimes I feel like we don't exist at all."

He kissed Lyssa's forehead. "Yes, an ex. No worries there, pet." He looked back up at Ianto. "And yes, I care about people as much as the next bloke, but you can't care so much that you can't pull the trigger when it's the right thing to do."

	"I know, she was the new one. Moving in, pushing us out." Ianto shook his head. "Good, now, before we end up saying things we'll regret." They had enough on the bad side. "She cares." Ianto started. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Oh I don't." Lyssa giggled at his face when he drank the milkshake. "I'll state the obivous one here for you both, she's cute." She whispered then to Owen. "So you know I would." She kissed him on the cheek and put her head back on his shoulder. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Try to think of a good thing? About Gwen? Well she's got good bloody aim." He sighed. "Trust me, I don't say nothing that I regret." He frowned. "Ok, good things... She has a nice arse?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Can talk to her about world ending type things." He couldn't think of any more at that point. "What about Rhys? What if he turns up?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	genius_mind 2008-01-24 07:21 pm UTC (link)
	"Well, that's a question to ask her, mate? Isn't it? Because then you have to wonder does she like you, or is she replacing you cause the prat isn't here?" Owen made it no secret he hated Rhys. Although he wasn't being very helpful. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	coffeeboy 2008-01-24 07:35 pm UTC (link)
	"You're right." Ianto turned the paper over and started over again. "Reinette then." More pen tapping. "Bad... I'm hopeless with her." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	genius_mind 2008-01-24 07:48 pm UTC (link)
	Owen laughed. "Which she probably thinks is cute." He snorted, almost spitting out his beer. He thought about it, not sure what to say. He didn't know her at all. He looked over at Lyssa, raising an eyebrow, then back at Ianto. "I don't know her, mate? Um... Well there's that Doctor. And she's not from our time, is that a hindrance?"

	"Hasn't he got enough with other people, including Jack." He sounded slightly bitter there. "Time isn't a problem, it's rather nice actually. Take things slower." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	genius_mind 2008-01-24 08:16 pm UTC (link)
	Owen snorted. "Ianto!" He let go of Lyssa and laughed his arse off. "That's fucking hilarious. You're jealous. You're bloody jealous of Jack!" He blinked. "I meant time like, different mindset. Do you not get me?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	nothing_of_note 2008-01-24 08:37 pm UTC (link)
	"Owen." Lyssa warned, before she whacked him on the arm. "You. Are not helping." She glared at him and turned to Ianto. "Be nicer!" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	coffeeboy 2008-01-24 08:43 pm UTC (link)
	"I'm not jealous... am I?" Ianto sighed, he'd been though this once before but maybe it was still bothering him. "Maybe I just thought it'd be different." "I like her, a lot. Maybe after what happened with Jack the whole time difference is wrong, or worth it just to see." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	genius_mind 2008-01-25 05:18 am UTC (link)
	Owen winced. He looked over at Lyssa. "Ow. That fucking hurt. I am being nice, damnit!" He looked back at Ianto. "Ok, so you're not jealous. Just... You are a better person than him, when it comes to this. You don't want to hurt anyone. And you need to make a decision." He sighed. "Ya can't dick 'em around. Look, I've done it. Look how well that turns out?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	coffeeboy 2008-01-25 01:23 pm UTC (link)
	Ianto took that to be some sort of rhetorical question, or maybe just one he was much better off just now answering. "I talk to Gwen, tell her what I think and it's done, I can go attempt to win over Reinette." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
