torchwood100Summary: Ianto has to administer first aid with whatever he has to hand. A double drabble.
‘I told you not to antagonise them,’ Ianto said as he led Jack through the door of his apartment. It had been quicker than going back to the hub which was at least another ten minutes away. Jack's nose was still bleeding despite the balled up tissue, whilst the patch just above his left eye was turning a lovely shade of red wine.
‘It wasn't a fair fight,’ Jack replied, his words muffled by the pinching of his own nose.
‘I could've told you that before anyone started swinging fists.’ He moved into the kitchen whilst Jack followed and sank onto the counter stool, swapping his tissues for Ianto's tea towel. He opened up the freezer and pulled out a bag of frozen peas. ‘Here, take these.’
‘They're peas.’
‘Thanks for confirming,’ came the cynical reply. ‘At least I know they didn't knock all the sense out of you,’ he added. ‘Mind you, you'd need to have some to start with.’
‘Very funny.’
‘It's all I have. I don't keep an ice pack on hand.’
‘Well you should,’ Jack said, wincing as he pressed the bag to his face.
‘Duly noted. For emergency pub fights instigated by Captain Jack Harkness.’
