Warnings: none

Summary: Ianto gets more than he bargained for in a local bookshop. A double drabble.

It wasn't like Ianto to be so clumsy, bumping into a complete stranger, but he'd been fixed on reading the back cover of the book at the time.

'Sorry,' he apologised.

'No problem. Looked like you were a million miles away.'

It was the voice that startled him, looking up to see the man he'd jostled. He'd seen photos, but coming face to face now, the resemblance was so striking it was hard to imagine it wasn't Jack. He even sounded like Jack.

'Good choice,' the man said, before Ianto embarrassingly remembered it was one of his books.

'Birthday present for my niece,' he mumbled. 'She's a big fan.'

'I could autograph it for you,' he offered. 'You'd be the best uncle ever.'

'You wouldn't mind?'

'Of course not. Anything for a fan. What's her name?' he asked, duly writing a message and signing it as Ianto carefully spelled her name.

'Thank you, that's wonderful,' Ianto said, feeling a little starstruck.

'What about a photo? You can show your niece. She'll never believe her uncle ran into me in a bookstore.'

No, she wouldn't, Ianto thought. She'd just think it was a photo of her uncle Ianto and uncle Jack.

Lulz - so cute! Your Ianto gets John Barrowman - my Owen gets Elle MacPherson - all the stars are out this week :)

They're both very lucky boys ;)

LOL! It's a shame Jack wasn't there as well. Ianto could have introduced him to his double. A photo of all three of them would convince Mica!
