Challenge: 591 - Refuge at tw100
Notes: Ianto needs to hurry as he suspects his latest visitor is only going to hang around so long. A double drabble.

Ianto was slightly shocked that the chocolate worked, distracting his quarry. 'Nice little place you’ve got here,' he said, making conversation as the pterodactyl nibbled. 'Suppose it’s not a bad sort of place to seek refuge. No neighbours, bit on the draughty side...'

'Right. Okay,' Ianto said, talking to himself more than anything. 'You just stay put here for a bit, and I’ll go get Jack.' He backed away slowly just in case it decided it was a little more carnivorous than normal. God only knew when it had last eaten and he didn’t think the chocolate bar that had been in his pocket was going to sate its hunger for long.

'Nice dinosaur, good dinosaur,' he cooed, continuing to back towards the door, before gratefully slipping through and pressing it shut. He puffed out a relieved breath and reached back into his pocket for the rift activity locator. It was flashing again, about five miles across town, and a much stronger signal than the one that had dropped the pterodactyl here. With any luck that’s where Jack would be headed right now.

He quickly clambered into his car, ready to intercept. If this didn’t get him inside, nothing would.

Nothing impresses a potential employer more than a pterodactyl. Ianto's luck just changed.
