"I need some fine wine and you, you need to be nicer"

[mooging]

Yesterday, the following conversation took place just at the end of a (really rather half-hearted) swimming session:

MOTHER: ....So, what are you doing at school tomorrow?
ME: Not that much. Classics. Maths. English. Something else while other people do sport.
MOTHER: Oh.
ME: Why is it that you ask?
MOTHER:  I was thinking maybe you could not go to school and go shopping with me in York instead?
ME: ....Or I could do that.

See, she had some stuff to return to some place in York and then wanted to ponce around the shops a bit...and so I went with her, and today was such a lovely day.

And I bought things! I now own Life On Mars Series 1 (YES! MINE FOREVER!). Also, I now own a very lovely dress (this one, in fact) and I have my friend's birthday presents all sorted out and we had a hot chocolate and some Marks and Spencers food for lunch, and I'm having Marks and Spencers chicken enchiladas for dinner and life is good right now.

All I have to do this weekend is learn lines 129-172 of Book 4 of The Aeneid, and that's fun anyway. Ahh, weekends.

Anyone up for the one-sentence fic game again? (I'm going to post a fic in a minute. Apologies in advance for the spam.)

Give me a character (or multiple characters, or a pairing, or a theory, or a ridiculous AU, or anything you like, really) from a fandom (er, preferably one that I'm familiar with. If you don't know whether I know a fandom or not, feel free to ask. Crossovers are absolutely fine), and a theme to go with it (by 'a theme' I mean anything that will give me some idea of where I'm going - be as vague or as specific as you want to be), and I'll write you a one-sentence fic. You may make as many requests as you like.

I have a woolly pinafore dress, but it's green...let's wear them together and take over the world? Tis perdy though, and so cheap! Well done. Sounds like lovely day. I love shopping with my mummy, doesn't happen enough.

Hmmm...Captain Jack Harkness, with a woman, no-one from Torchwood though...but don't mind who else. And the theme? Sex.

It was a lovely day (AND I SENT YOUR PRESENT TODAY!!!!!). We should wear our pinafore dresses together, yessy. The world will fall at our feet.

Prompt:

Jack never compares the two, men and women, because they are completely different to him: this woman glides under his hand, curving and soft and tender, all long hair and long eyelashes and smooth, and he fell for her because she winked at him across a room and then didn't wait to see his reaction (now she can't-won't-can't look at him, because her eyes are closed and she's breathing fast and Jack can be a tease when he wants); Ianto is tender too, and caring, but he twists in an entirely different way when Jack trails his hands over his body and his breathing is shallow in a different way to this woman's gasps, and Jack won't choose between them now, because now he doesn't know if he could.
