Ianto raises an eyebrow at the other man's question. Because of the accent. Because of the accent, Rodney, really? (Is that really why John would have suggested such a thing? No, it can't be. Even Rodney seems to recognize that he has some sort of investigative talents. 'Considering the aliens' indeed.)
"They were indeed the 'hiding-on-earth kind'," Ianto replies, airily. Forgive him, Rodney, but you are beginning to bring out his snark. "They were in fact the hiding-on-earth, wanting-us-dead kind. In one form or another. Some of them had a more complicated plan than the next. There were the ones who wanted us to mess with the rift in time and space and essentially bring about the fracturing of time itself. And then there were those who just wanted to eat our faces off. Frankly, I preferred the latter. Much less trouble in the long-run," he adds, raising his coffee and tipping back another bracing swallow. Should he really be drinking another establishment's fare in his workplace? Probably not. Does he care at this point. God no.
