Loving this! As someone who generally reads fic with two characters (or sometimes only one), I completely understand why you'd rather not deal with the whole team. Particularly in a short fic. Hell, half the time the series writers can't be bothered to write for the whole team.
Torchwood Three as an indulgence is so right. In a few short paragraphs you've explained so very much that makes no sense in the show and gotten well into Ianto. And after that first sentence, I'm curious to see how Captain Jack comes back into this.
Not to say that gen teamfic isn't interesting, but I'm always going to vote for more Ianto and less Owen.
I just watched Doomsday and The Runaway Bride this weekend, so I'm feeling the Doctor Who angst at the moment. But you're right, it's not emo in a dark way, and it's more about wonder and joy and other cheesiness that makes my friends mock me for loving it. Weird that between Doctor Who and Torchwood, it's the one with decent scripts and without gratuitous sex that's the guilty pleasure.
