...right. Eventually, we're going to have to work out some sort of protocol for this. That's two people so far in Torchwood with guardian angels.
From what I understand, there are certain things which will trigger an instinctive response which it's hard if not impossible for a Guardian Angel to ignore. One is if you're injured or in acute physical danger, another is if you're beyond a certain range. As we don't need him charging across the city to you and sedating him for the duration is probably not an option, I'd recommend equipping him with a headset and keeping him two blocks away from you.
If the mission crumples in such a way that you will be in acute danger, at least having him rush in won't compromise anything further. The most it will do is put one more person in danger. Which isn't something I'm happy about, but you don't really argue with guardian angel instincts.
