Title: Bad PR
Author: m_findlow
Characters: Jack, Ianto
Rating: PG
Challenge: 614 - Non-stop at tw100
Notes: Ianto is having a bad public relations day thanks to a mortal enemy. A double drabble.

'Would someone pull this damn phone line out of the wall?' Ianto moaned to no one in particular, dropping his head into his hands on the desk.

Jack poked his head in through the office door, a look of concern on his face. 'Having a bad day?'

Ianto looked up, a sad, resigned expression on it. 'I can't take another phone call. It's been ringing non-stop ever since that weevil broke into the Sennedd during question time. I must have had every last MP call through, demanding to know why we can't keep things under control.'  

Jack frowned. Lowly MPs shouldn't even have his number. They were barely allowed to know about Torchwood.

The phone began ringing again and Jack raced for it, picking it up before Ianto could intercede. 'Who gave you this number?' he demanded. He listened to the irate female voice on the other end of the line, only too happy to tell him that and a lot more. 'Thanks,' he said, slamming it back down. 'Our little sniveling friend Giles Stanley at the Home Office,' he told Ianto, before rushing out.

'If you have to shoot him, please go for the kneecap,' Ianto yelled after him.

Giles Stanley needs a lesson in the meaning of the words Secret Organisation! Shooting is too good for him. A few hours with Janet should do it.

He's a bureaucrat of a whole other order. He enjoys making their lives hard.
