His charming persona and ability to adapt have lessened the obvious differences but if you squint, it's still there.
Yeah, and I wish that they would remember this. Even though he's been on Earth in the 20th century a long time, a lot of what he does is just for show. I wish the show would explore his true values and how he views the 21st century from an outsider's point of view.
And also I agree that Ianto is definitely a sort of stealth puppeteer rather than a victim. He knows and probably influences much more than anyone else realizes.
He's a smooth operator indeed. And I think that's why Jack and Ianto work so well. They both have their dominant and submissive facets, but when it comes down to it, I honestly think that Ianto tops from the bottom most times.
I still think that Ianto might secretly be a double agent or something else, because notice how when he's not in sight of anyone in Meat, his kung fu gets like 10x stronger.
