"I'll give you a special discount on my bodyguard fees, how's that?"
He takes the bottle with his other hand, draws back enough to give a gentle kiss to Ianto's cheek before taking another swig from the bottle.
"Plus, you said you were going to come running with me more often. Remember? Then you can get fast enough to run away before anyone hits you with a cleaver, or at least run in my direction so I can shoot them for you."
John's not fussed about which it is, any outcome where Ianto is safe is fine. A better one might be to teach him to fight, but he'd seemed a little wary of even using the other setting on his stun gun. Which is fine, that's his choice. Maybe if he taught him a choke-hold or something at least, though. A way to knock people out faster.
