Ianto shifted his hand in Sulu's grip to clutch Sulu's hand back, raising an eyebrow and quirking a half smile at Sulu's words. "You're sure of that, then?" he asked, because however much he might want to just blindly trust that everything was going to be alright, he was too much of a realist to manage it. "That so long as we want it to work out, it will and all. You... You really believe that?" he asked.
As much as he was cynical, and a pessimist, Ianto still wanted things to work out for the better, and if Sulu was so sure of it, sure enough to reinforce his words and answer Ianto truthfully in this, then. Maybe Ianto would feel more inclined to believe him. Sulu really was his strength, when it came to optimism. He hadn't realized how down he used to be on a lot of things until Sulu had come along and started changing a lot of that for the better.
