Passing Notes In Class

Title: Passing Notes in Class
Pairing/Rating/Warning: vague Jack/Ianto, rated G
Word Count: 100
Summary:  A boring lecture might turn out interesting for Jack and Ianto afterall
Author's Note:  Some more silliness written for jadesfire2808

Jack couldn’t focus on the powerpoint demonstration.  Attending the lecture “Reinterpreting the Standard Suppositions on Alien Contact” had seemed a better choice than taking the “Alien Walking Tour of the Manhattan Sewers,” but eighty minutes later he was wondering if Owen had gotten the better deal.  Sewers were smelly, but at least your chance of slipping into a coma out of sheer boredom were slim.  He saw Ianto watching him so he mimicked smacking his head against the table.  Ianto slipped him a piece of paper...psychic paper...  Jack read it, his face flushing.  Maybe he’d chosen well after all....

Oh yes, I think it's entirely plausible that Ianto might have some psychic paper. I'm just having fun imagining where he got it. He'd have to have known what it was in order to realize it was worth putting aside. Gosh, the things he could do with it! In addition to titillating Jack during a lecture! Hee.

I suspect there would definitely be some in the archives. And Ianto would certainly see the possibilities in it, wouldn't he?

He does have a talent for recognizing unusual potential in ordinary objects.

So let's just add psychic paper to the stopwatch in that lovely category!

[rustydog.livejournal.com]

Absolutely. :)

Incidentally - sorry to be so completely off topic here, but do you know where the Come As You Aren't Party is being held? For the life of me I can't remember, and I've been poking through people's journals looking and everything.

karaokegal is the one running it. Supposedly (according to _medley_) She posts when the party is open and we post links to our stories in comments, with a special header of the title, pairing. rating, summary and why its a costume.

Ah hah, one of the journals I didn't try! Thank you!

You're welcome. It looks like it goes "live" in a little over 4 hours. I think I'll wait till I'm up tomorrow to post mine though.

[rustydog.livejournal.com]

Four hours? Yeah, me too I think, if I decide to post it. I'm a night owl, but I've got a long day tomorrow. :)

The party is a week long, so you have plenty of time. Why would you consider not posting it?

[rustydog.livejournal.com]

::shrug:: It's just a short thing I did to see if I could, and it's not beta'd, and then tonight it got a little bit Jossed by the new episode of the show. Heh. But if there's a week, hey! Just need to decide if it's better to plunge in right away or wade in slowly.

Everyone's working a little out of their element here, try to find a beta if it'll make you feel better, I put up a f-lock request for one to find someone familiar with the shows I needed

That's a good idea! That would mean "coming out" to more than the four people on my flist who currently know that I've started writing fic, though. *g* I don't think any of them write in this fandom, if there's even a fandom for it. But maybe I should consider it. I sort of did that for a TW/Little Britain crack crossover I wrote once. Heh.

I went ahead and took the plunge. I'd never have posted it otherwise, I think!

excellent! Off to go find it!
