"Well, it's broken." Ianto declared with finality. "Utterly, irreparably broken."

"You must be joking." Tosh slid from her desk and walked over to the workstation where Ianto stood, hands in his pockets, his face a mask of calm.

She had to admit that it didn't look good. The glass had actually melted and fused with the hotplate. The handle and pouring lip were caved in. The filter basket was an unidentifiable lump of charred black plastic. The top of the coffee machine was gently smoking and bubbling.

"I told him." Ianto heaved a sigh. "I told him that just because it looks like coffee beans doesn't mean it is coffee beans, and it shouldn't be ground up and brewed. Especially if it came through the rift."

Tosh gave him a soothing and affectionate pat on the arm. "I'll get my coat. We'll go buy a new one."
