Ianto blushed, feeling a little silly that he'd even suggested it, but pleased that he had because of the warmth spreading through him that Sulu had agreed to the offer and turned it back to apply to him as well. "Yeah," he said, trying to keep his voice from sounding as if he was relieved that Sulu'd agreed. "Yeah, I'll... I'll call, and we'll... We'll work it out."

"I know it won't work every time, and well. That there'll probably be some times when I really do want you here, or you'd want me to be there, and it just can't happen, but. I mean, those potential few times this might not work shouldn't stop us from leaving the offer out in the open, yeah?"

He stuck his hands in his pockets, smiling bashfully at Sulu and resisting the urge to shuffle his feet. He felt awkward in that moment, but. Well, it was a good kind of awkward. An awkward brought on by excitement of things to come. "Well... There's that. I... I still think that tonight it's probably better if we. Y'know. Didn't. But in the future. Really, I'm looking forward to it."
