Title: He's Got It
Written for tw100, challenge 187 - X Factor
Rating: G
Characters: Jack/ Ianto, Team
Disclaimer: Not mine; Aunty B's and RTD's
Summary:   What is it that makes Jack Harkness so special?

A/N: This prompt really gave me a hard time. I just couldn't wrap my mind around it. I sat at my computer and stared at the prompt. I read the other drabbles posted. I still had nothing. And then out of no where it hits me, as Emeril would say...BAM.

 

Is it his thousand watt smile? Or perhaps his fifty-first century pheromones? Maybe it’s his blue eyes, sparkling and clear when he’s happy, darkening with fury when he’s not.

Tosh thinks it’s the suspenders; old-fashioned but somehow so right when he wears them. Owen laughs and says it’s his collection of blue dress shirts. Gwen puzzles over it, but she knows that it’s something right in front of her yet beyond her reach.

Only Ianto knows the secret to being Jack Harkness. It’s the coat. And he loves the coat almost as much as he loves the man wearing it.

Lovely! Though, I agree with Tosh also. The suspenders definitely help.

Too true. The Coat is a character in its own right. It should have its name in the credits, right under Gareth's.
Great response to the prompt! :)

Well its all part of the 'package,' but I still think the coat rules!

[aviv-b.livejournal.com]

Thanks. (Was I not complaining to you earlier about having nothing).

I think that coat has been under Gareth Ianto numerous times in fanfic.

[xrai-namere.livejournal.com]

Yes, I'm glad a bunny bit you! :)

Or on. Ianto would look drop dead smexy in the coat. And nothing else. ;)

[akawho.livejournal.com]

Yes, it's the coat. Definitely, the coat. ;)

Handle with care.

[teamrodent.livejournal.com]

Or near there, any way.

Re: Handle with care.

[aviv-b.livejournal.com]

Yes - there's that!

[aviv-b.livejournal.com]

Ok yeah! Help! The bunnies have attacked. I just wrote another one - somebody stop me.....

(its way to late - all good bunnies and kitties and Meowmys should be in bed).

Love the coat!

[iolo1234.livejournal.com]

Absolutely - gotta love that coat.

[jedi-harkness.livejournal.com]

He's the total package as far as I'm concerned but the coat is what ties it all together! ;)

[too-beauty.livejournal.com]

I think Ianto is right! that coat makes me sigh .....

[aviv-b.livejournal.com]

I love when Ianto holds Jack's coat up to smell it.

[aviv-b.livejournal.com]

Exactly! Its the coat that makes the man.

[aviv-b.livejournal.com]

Gotta love the coat!

'Owen laughs and says it’s his collection of blue dress shirts.' oh that line made me laugh!! but yeah, have to agree with everyone else (and ianto)... deffo the coat!!

[aviv-b.livejournal.com]

Well, he does seem to have a lot of those blue shirts, unless he's Ianto's doing laundry every night!

But the coat rules!

[punkchick1995.livejournal.com]

haha yeah, but even when he gets shot in them he still has more of those shirts!! maybe they revive with him...

[aviv-b.livejournal.com]

Maybe he's got a sekrit blue shirt replicator hidden in the Hub, LOL.

[punkchick1995.livejournal.com]

... maybe! lool ;) x

[peacemaker409.livejournal.com]

Coat!Love :D It's definitely the coat lol I think this drabble is perfect :) Great approach to the prompt <3

[aviv-b.livejournal.com]

Thanks! This prompt really had me stumped until I read it again and it spoke of "Je ne sais quoi."

And who is more JNSQ than Jack? And when that was done, I thought about Ianto. Who knows I just might write one for another character!
