Summary: Jack has his reservations about Ianto's family. A double drabble.

Jack didn't like to admit he was nervous about meeting Ianto's family. He figured that Ianto had his own feelings of anxiety about putting their relationship out there in the realms of "yes, we really are", and he didn't want to compound the problem. Instead, Jack made a point of idling around the estate, checking them out from a distance so that he knew what he was up for. Ianto was a soft touch, but he'd grown up in a rough part of town and sometimes those hard edges shone through the carefully tailored suits.

Jack didn't expect any relation of Ianto's to be soft, however. One look at his brother in law told Jack that he wasn't a tall man, but he had a lot of mates who looked like rugby players and would happily mess up a face as nice as Jack's if they thought he did the wrong thing by Ianto. They might not even wait for Jack to prove he hadn't. As for his sister… if the local gossip was anything to go by, he didn't want to mess with her either.

'They're harmless, really,' Ianto said as they got in the car.

Sure they were.
