it was the myth of fingerprints

First: Happy birthday, Allie! Look, have a Jack fic. :)

Second: this fic is legitimately all tricksterquinn's fault. Seriously. So we were talking last week about songs and fannishness, and using lyrics as titles for fics. And I made the great error of referring to this Paul Simon song, and how this lyric has been in my head as a fic title for years now but I hadn't found the right story for it yet. And she said: yes you have, and it's about Jack and maybe Ianto, and this is your prompt. And then it banged around in my head for a few days, knocking out all of the other fics I'm currently working on, and then this happened.

Moral of this story: tricksterquinn is the devil, and that's kind of awesome.

So.
