Oscar Wilde is amazingly amazing. *laughs* He's so funny, and spot on, even today! Jack would just fall head over heels for him, because he's so witty and outrageous.
Coffee! I forgot that. I imagine Jack would too, I bet he went into withdrawals while he was away.
Torchwood has a long memory, especially when it comes to the Doctor -- that and Jack is many things, but subtle is not one of them. I have it in my head that Ianto caught on fairly quickly about Jack's immortality, especially since he's the clean-up man and the archivist (and yes, I imagine that what was left of the 'Jack files' were scavenged from One).
Ianto didn't push because he knows that's not the way to get Jack to open up. All Jack needs is a light touch, a little suggestion dropped here or there. Ianto's a professional at that sort of thing already, so he, essentially, has Jack wrapped around his fingers.
And the necklace bit... This one is set sometime just before Captain Jack Harkness, their relationship is just starting to make the transition from 'casual fuck' to 'maybe something more'. The necklace picks up on how they both really feel and is trying to give a not-so subtle reminder about what they really are to each other (because right now they need a little kick in the pants).
