The work was never done. Jack had chased down a blowfish and had arrested him. He hated the Torchwood policy of kill first and question later that they had in London. Unfortunately he had taken the creature back to One and he'd been killed there "trying to escape". Jack was sick with it and he withdrew.
He didn't usually drink but today...today he had good reason. So he sat in the bar at the end of the street with a glass of brandy he'd already drained four times.
What he wouldn't give to be able to get drunk.

Fuck Captain. Fuck Harkness. Right now he was nothing more than Jack.

"Care to spill your troubles?" he asked. "I'm a dreadful problem solver, but a fantastic listener."

"Come on then, lovely. I'll gladly sweep you off your feet, darling."

Date: 2015-04-13 10:05 pm (UTC)"Valentine, I think you'll like me better if I don't tell you everything. All you need to know is I'm available and you...are very good looking," Jack replied, choosing to flirt rather than lie.

Date: 2015-04-15 12:49 am (UTC)That rough quality went right down Jack's back to his cock. He walked a little closer and skipped his arm around Valentine.
"It's always fun meeting new people."
