This is based on an idea where Ianto joins the team in Cardiff much earlier than in cannon, before the fall of Canary Wharf. This is a what would Ianto have been like if he wasn't trying to smuggle his half converted girlfriend into the Hub story. What sort of relationships might he have built with the team and what else might have changed if Ianto Jones didn't blend quite so neatly into the background like he does in cannon.

This is a little different to the universe's I've worked with so far since I'm playing with an idea of Ianto with a different introduction to Cardiff and Torchwood Three. I hope the characters aren't too out of character however it is an AU with borrowed elements in it - I don't own Torchwood or the BBC.

Constructive feedback is always appreciated.

As to warnings, there will be flirting and innuendo and implied pairings, there will also be bad language (Owen mostly) and other individual warnings as needed.
