Notes: Ianto has a bad feeling about their latest rift find. A double drabble.

'Ianto!' Jack called out. 'Think you can run some preliminary scans on this thing for us?' he asked, holding up the large metal gauntlet.

'Me?'

'Well, sure. Thought it might give you a bit more variety in your day,' Jack replied. 'Can't be all filing and making coffee.'

'There's also the SUV to clean,' Ianto replied. 'Again, I might add.'

Jack shrugged. 'So, add this to your to do list, then.'

Ianto looked at the gauntlet with some reticence. 'Shouldn't Suzie be doing that, sir? She did find it after all. Kind of figured it was her project now.'

'Suzie's busy. And you can give her your findings once you're done. She'll take it from there.' When he didn't make any move to take it from Jack's hands, Jack frowned at him. 'Is there a problem?'

Ianto squirmed under the direct questioning. His eyes never left the object, like he didn't trust it. 'It's just... creepy. That's all.'

Jack shook it, making the segmented fingers waggle and squeal in their slightly rusted state. 'It's just a metal glove, Ianto. Nothing scary about it. Thought you'd find it interesting, since you're into all that medieval Welsh stuff.'

'Fine. One preliminary scan.'

Ianto's empathy strikes again. I bet he could feel the glove's wrongness even if he couldn't explain why.
