Summary: Jack is corrupting the Torchwood pets.

Ianto watched in concern. Nosy and Myfanwy were motionless, gazing with rapt attention at the TV Jack had installed. It was a disturbing sight.
Eyes widening in horror as he heard the theme tune begin, he spun on his heel, storming off in search of Jack.
“Jack? How could you?”
“Huh? What did I do now?”
“Myf and Nosy are glued to the TV!” Seeing Jack’s look of alarm, he added, “Not literally, idiot!”
“Thank God. You had me worried there.”
“You should be worried! You’ve turned our pets into couch potatoes! Worse than that, they’re watching Home and Away!”
The End
A/N: Apologies to any fans of the soap.
But poor Ianto.... *laughs*
(I bet they do look adorable, but that's no consolation to Ianto!)
Thank you!
Jack means well, he just doesn't think things through, and it usually means more for Ianto to deal with.
Thank you.
Thank you.
I think Ianto's more worried that they'll start drinking lager and beer, lol! Nosy is particularly impressionable, it likes copying its friends.
Ianto might want to make sure the fern is out of the range of the T.V., or it will be addicted next!
You're so right about Jack, he's always corrupting someone in some way, I think it's his mission in life to leave no sentient being uncorrupted. It means a lot of extra work for Ianto!
Thank you!

Judging by the look on Ianto's face, it's not something he wants the impressionable Torchwood mascots to watch though.
Thank you.
