Ianto isn't going to cling to the other man if he insists on shaking him off, especially not with a mostly full cup of coffee in one hand, so he releases his grip as John tries again. But he can't hide the slight flinch in his expression as John pulls his dig. He might have had a relatively comfortable night in one place, but he had gathered some useful information too, hadn't he? At the sacrifice of an even more comfortable night in, no less.

"No," Ianto says, a bit more tetchily this time because he tried the nice approach and then John went for the throat, "I'm sorry. You show up with extra cuts and bruises I know for a fact you didn't have before, you tell me that I should take what I can get because we might all die in a dragon fire, and now you're upset with me for the fact that I was there in the first place? I gathered information, the same as you, and so what if I didn't to stay up the night wrestling bears or whatever the hell it is you've been doing to get it?"
