“This is a bit ignominious,” Ianto said, lying on his back with his hands behind his head. “Thrown in prison on an alien planet for sneezing in public; haven’t they ever heard of allergies?”

“It was a big chicken, Jack!”


“A Murket actually,” Jack corrected him, “and they’re sacred here, believed to be the souls of the departed. You’re lucky we’re not natives; we’ll only be deported rather than executed.”


Ianto gave Jack a dirty look. “Well, that’s comforting to know.”
