tw100 Summary: Ianto can juggle far more than Jack thought. A double drabble.
Jack could barely contain the laugh that escaped him as the lift door opened and he came face to face with Ianto. Or, more to the point, didn't come face to face with him. He had so many boxes, stacks of reports and artefacts piled in his arms that there was a genuine risk of total disaster.
'Is there a Ianto Jones behind there or have our archives finally evolved sentient life capable of making our files grow leg's and wander about the hub all on their own?'
'You could help, you know,' came the familiar Welsh tones, followed by a huff.
Jack carefully took the top handful of items which had been perched far too precariously for his liking. It had the added benefit of revealing the handsome face that had been hiding behind them. Jack grinned dopily at it. 'There he is. How on earth did you manage to balance all this stuff all the way from the archives to the lift?' It was far from a short trip, and he didn't dare ask why all this stuff needed to come upstairs.
'You just learn to make do. I'm also naturally acrobatic.'
Jack chuckled. 'Don't I know it?'
