Challenge: 480 - Book at tw100
Notes: Ianto has an obsession that Jack can't stop
Jack wanted to laugh at his lover as they wandered the busy markets. There were a thousand things to see, dozens of strange new foods to try, clothes and trinkets, special lotions and perfumes, artwork and more, yet Jack knew there was one place more than any Ianto would gravitate towards.
Most were secondhand, their pages yellowed and worn, spines bent a hundred times over, but they were clutched together in his arms like precious gems. He must've had more than a dozen already.
'There's a trillion books in the ship's computers,' Jack said.
'It's not the same,' Ianto replied.
