likesthecoat | [filtered] this is my smug face

They have little crater-covered moons, and some of the moons have three-eyed green aliens peeping out of the craters. I assume the spacemen are safely inside the rockets.

I'm impressed, Ianto. I don't have any underwear that are even half as fun as that.

That should be corrected at some point, Major.

Gonna send me colorful boxers in my next package?

*adds to list*

Why yes, I am.

Sweet. I can honestly say I've never gotten underwear in a care package before.

I'm happy to be your first.

You should feel honored. It's not every guy I meet that I let send me underwear.

Oh, I feel deeply honored.

I'm going to assume I should just find something fun and colorful . . . and comfortable, of course. In your line of work you shouldn't be distracted by binding elastic.

Comfort is very important. Gotta be something I can move in.

Right. Something to move in, and colorful.

I'm sure you'll find something that will work.

I know exactly what I'm going to look for. Whether I find it or not is another matter.

I don't know what astounds me more, that we're having this conversation in public or that we're so blase about it.

I have full faith in your resourcefulness.

[Private to Ianto]

Well, why not? We used to do this and more in public all the time. I miss that. I miss being the TIC-flirt. It gave me so much freedom.

[Private to Lorne]

Yes, I remember, but it didn't mean anything then.

If I ask you if you miss that freedom is that going to come across as possessive or just massively insecure?

[Private to Ianto]

I know. Which is why I stopped.

What I miss is the freedom to talk to you like that. I'd almost forgotten that I used to. It feels good. Especially knowing that even if it just looks like I'm being silly and flirty like I would with anyone, I know that you know there's more behind it.

[Private to Lorne]

Oh. I thought you meant you missed the freedom of flirting with whoever you wanted to, but you can certainly carry on flirting with me whenever you want. I don't mind that at all.

[Private to Ianto]

Well, good. We'd have some problems if you minded me flirting with you.

And I realized the other day that it's really only you that I've stopped flirting with. Which is ridiculous, really.

[Private to Lorne]

We haven't stopped flirting. We just don't flirt where other people can see it very much anymore. (And it usually goes somewhere when we do.)

[ooc: this conversation makes me laugh, given martha and lorne's thread]

[ooc: Martha and Lorne's thread was a big contributor to Lorne's flirtiness in this thread.]

[ooc: well, glad we could help :)]

[ooc: Ianto was wondering where that came from.]

[Private to Ianto]

That's what I mean, though. I never should have stopped flirting with you where other people can see. There's definitely a point when it should be moved to a private thread, but that doesn't mean we can't have a little fun in public.

[Private to Lorne]

Shep came and we both got nervous. It happens. I suppose now it doesn't matter, unless you don't want McKay to get any ideas.
