I am a massive Janto shipper. Huge. Up until something borrowed I thought I knew where the relationship between the boys was. Now I am very confused and feeling that Ianto is being sold way short. He is smart. We know that! Ianto knows everything. He is also capable of being very brave, and very active in fighting for a relationship to the death (hello, Lisa?). Ianto's feelings for Jack have always seemed more than the sex (Brokeback Torchwood jacket sniffing anyone?) so why is he content to be pushed to the back burner.
However, in TTLM and Adam, Jack showed real affection for Ianto. It was his faith in Ianto that saved them all in Adam - where has that gone?
I read Ianto's exchange with Martha as flippant because Jack told her that they have kinky man sex. That was all Jack told her. Would Ianto open up and spill his heart on that basis, just for Martha to find out jack is not on the same page and pity him? No he wouldn't. As much as I love Janto I feel that they need to either need to end it, or put them back on a level footing and give Ianto some respect.
