He turned from the Doctor towards the Plas.  After all these decades he had finally learned the limit of a Time Lord's power.  He could inspire a monster to change (sometimes).  But he could not love a monster (not a non-Gallifreyan monster anyway).

Now Jack needed someone who knew him for what he was ("You're the worst monster here!") and understood.

("Do you still think I'm a monster?" he asked late one night after they had gone to bed.  Ianto was silent for a long time, then touched his face.

"Yes.  But I can live with it.")

Jack ran.

I love how you used the monster line :D

I've always thought that when Ianto shouted that line at Jack, he might as well have sent out engraved wedding invitations on the spot. After all, who had just proved he was the only one there who could love a monster?
