Summary: Jack is irked with Gwen for refusing to Retcon Rhys.
Disclaimer: I don’t own Torchwood, or the characters.
A/N: Double drabble.
“I’m supposed to be the boss! Why doesn’t anyone ever do what I tell them?” Jack grumbled once he and Ianto were alone.
“We do. Mostly. I mean, sometimes one of us will have a better idea and tell you so, but you’d rather that than blind obedience, right?”
“Of course, but that’s not what I’m talking about. When did ‘No’ start meaning ‘Ignore what I say and just do whatever you want’? Why does she defy me like that?”
“I gather we’re talking about Gwen here.”
“Who else would we be talking about? What she said about Tosh, and Owen, and you... That was completely out of line, and then refusing to Retcon Rhys! Keeping what we do secret from outsiders is a matter of security! The rest of you don’t go blabbing to everyone you know!”
“The rest of us aren’t married to someone who blundered into our world by chance.”
“You’re taking Gwen’s side now?”
“No, I’m just saying that she didn’t tell Rhys about the space whale, he found that out for himself, and he did help us. Maybe him retaining his memories could be a good thing. Never know when we might need a truck.”
The End
