Title: An old classic
Author: m_findlow
Characters: Jack, Ianto
Rating: PG
Challenge: 415 - Silence
Notes: Jack and Ianto enjoy a quiet night out

'Is there anything from the forties that you don't like?' Ianto asked.

'Spam,' Jack replied as the lights began to dim in the room, announcing that the show would commence soon. 'Silent films are great.'

'They're certainly unique. Though not terribly PC these days.'

'I know,' Jack agreed. 'Guys blacking up with boot polish and damsels in distress. Still, the slapstick ones never date, and they're still better than most of the new movies.'

It was hard not to agree. For all their complicated storylines and special effects, they just didn't entertain.

'Some things just never go out of style.'

Jack in nostalgia mood. For a man from the future, he sure does love the past!

He's been to the future and found it overly complicated. Much better the simple life he remembers from when he was young.
