Author: m_findlow
Characters: Jack, Ianto
Rating: PG
Challenge: 476 - Thirst at tw100
Notes: Ianto is not lowering his standards, no matter what.

'I'm not drinking that,' Ianto declared.

'Yeah, you are,' Jack said.

'No.'

'Ianto, come on. It's the only thing they know how to make around here.'

'That,' he said, pointing sharply at the paper cup in Jack's hand, 'is not coffee. You of all people should know that.'

Jack sighed. How to explain that this was the only waystation between here and where they were headed, at least another day's journey away.

'There won't be anything else to drink until sometime tomorrow.'

'Then I'd rather die of thirst. Since that's no longer a permanent state, I'm willing to risk it.'
