Ianto's eyes had somewhere in the middle of it all fallen shut, as if somehow the fact that he had shut his eyes against what was going on around him would make it stop happening, which...was sadly not the case. When Sulu's voice suddenly appeared next to his ear, it did startle Ianto out of it, putting to spots of color on his cheeks in amidst the skin that was even paler than normal. He opened his eyes and slowly turned to look at Sulu, who really was quite close in that moment. It said something about Ianto's state of mind that he didn't even notice the closeness, that he was more focused on the person themself and being distracted from the driving than anything else.
"Yeah, right," Ianto said quietly, softly enough that Jack probably wouldn't hear him in the front. "I mean. Jack's never crashed yet, he says. I just. I wasn't kidding when I told you about that car accident ruining me forever for stunts like these." Ianto was fine with them when he was actually getting chased. The adrenaline was pumping, and he had something to focus on besides the reckless driving itself. He found himself feeling a lot more secure staring into Sulu's eyes, blue searching brown, rather than watching the road, though. His grip on Sulu's hand did nothing to loosen itself. "It's alright, though. I'll...really, I'll be fine. Once I'm out of the car."
