Summary: New boardroom, new rules. A double drabble.

'Okay, looks like we're ready to roll,' Jack announced as Ianto swept into the boardroom, last to arrive with the tray of mugs. It was nice to know some things hadn't changed whilst he'd been gone. Coffee arriving was still the precursor to starting any meeting.

Jack helped himself to the tray, not waiting for Ianto to set it in front of him. That was something he'd missed almost as much as the team. A year was a very long time to be without coffee.

Ahem. The throat clearing was loud and unequivocal.

Jack looked up. 'Yes?' He followed Ianto's annoyed gaze towards the table. 'Coaster,' he said plainly, indicating the silver object just inches away.

Jack shrugged. 'I've never bothered with one. You know that.'

'I do, and the table was covered in scratches because of it. Now that we have a nice new table, I'd like to keep it that way.'

Jack looked at the east of his team in askance. There were plenty of reasons the table was scratched, which included having late night post-weevil capture sex on it. 'You guys aren't giving in to this kind of dictatorship, are you?'

'He makes the coffee,' Owen replied.
