Summary: The hub is in need of some major renovations. A double drabble.


'Ianto, do you know where we keep the blueprints for the underground port?' Jack asked, rifling through a large drawer full of schematics in the archives. He'd already upended most of them by the looks of things, large unfurled scrolls of papers strewn all about. Ianto knew he'd be the one to tidy them all back up.

'You're about three drawers too far over,' he replied, calmly walking to the correct cabinet, selecting the fifth drawer from the top and pulling it open, revealing the neat blueprints lying flat on top. He pulled them out and lay them on the table in whatever space he could after having pushed aside the rest of Jack's efforts. 'Should I ask why you're suddenly so interested in architecture?'

Jack studied them. 'Gotta call a contractor to come out and draw up some designs for a new dock. Thought it'd be handy to have a copy of the originals.'

'Why do we need a new dock?'

Jack grinned. 'Remember how I said the Prince of Saudi Arabia still owed me a favour? He's sending us a replacement boat. Brand new commission. The Sea Queen III. But we're gonna need a bigger dock. Much bigger.'

Jack's no doubt excited at the thought of having a new toy to play with!
