Summary: Owen doesn't like it when Jack doesn't play fair. A double drabble.


'I'm not playing anymore!' Owen yelled, slapping his cards down on the table as he stood up, switching his little tantrum up into second gear.

'Sit down, Owen,' Gwen said.

'No. He fucking cheats. Every single bloody time.' Owen grabbed for the packet of crisps, determined to take them with him, starting a tug of war with Ianto who was determined to keep them on the table.

'I didn't cheat!' Jack said, scowling at Owen, still seated at the table and clutching the deck of cards, readying to shuffle them for a fresh round.

'He's got extras up his sleeve, or he's dodgying up shuffling them or something.'

'Owen, he's not even counting cards,' Tosh insisted.

'How would you know?'

'Because I can count cards and I can tell you he isn't.' She blushed a little at the admission.

Jack leaned back casually. 'I could get Ianto to give me a strip search if you like. Prove I'm not hiding any extra cards?'

'You'd like that, wouldn't you?'

'Actually I would.'

Gwen sighed. 'Look, can we all just agree Jack isn't cheating?'

'Not at cards, anyway,' Ianto said, smirking.

'It's Go Fish,' Gwen added. 'I don't think you can cheat.'

Owen is a sore loser. Somehow I'm not surprised.
