cazmalfoy
Genre: AU, Angst, Hurt/Comfort, General
Rating: PG-13
Other/Implied Pairings: Rhys/Gwen
Summary: When Jack and Ianto hit another block on their path to a child, they receive a little bit of help from a friend...
Status: COMPLETE
Length: One-shot / 20th installment in the Series
Word Count: ~ 1,234
Warnings: N/A
Comment or Excerpt from fic: Twentieth one-shot in this series taking place in-between Choices and Dalek Invasion (links above in chronological order). Well, so Caz didn't promise that it was gonna be a smooth ride or anything, so I should've expected it... *twitch* As the summary states, Jack and Ianto keep hitting snags on the path to having another child. After the third unsuccessful time, they receive unexpected help from a close friend!
~*~*~*~*~
EXCERPT:
Jack noticed Gwen looking at them with a thoughtful expression on her face and demanded, “What are you up to?”
She ignored him and turned to Ianto, “What did the agency say?” she asked softly.
Ianto’s eyes hardened and he glared a little at the police officer before sighing. “The same thing we knew they’d say. We’re just not the right couple. I think we’ve resigned ourselves to the knowledge that we’re not going to have another kid of our own.”
Gwen smirked and shook her head knowingly, “I wouldn’t be so sure about that, if I were you.”
Together the couple turned and studied her with confusion shining in their eyes. “Gwen…” Jack said, “What are you planning?”

Date: 2008-08-05 04:32 pm (UTC)Sorry to be a bother *cough cough* But since this is mainly one series being recced over and over with new parts, could you maybe do two posts, one for the prequel and one for the sequel? That way there would only be two posts for the series, instead of one post for each installment.
^_^ Sorry!

Date: 2008-08-05 10:04 pm (UTC)*coughs sheepishly* The only problem with that is that it's still an on-going series, so I wouldn't, for the life of me, know which are sequels and which aren't. What makes it harder is also the fact that it's being written in a random order, so it's impossible to know where the next fic will be placed in the above list!
Hmmm...
How about I hold-off on posting this until the series is done then. Would that make it easier...?
no subject
Date: 2008-08-06 07:18 pm (UTC)Well you could always just make one post for the whole series, and edit it once a new part comes out. ^^;;
Because so far it looks like this series is never-ending lol
no subject
Date: 2008-08-07 01:25 am (UTC)Aah, sou.
I'll probably just forget to update the list when I do since it's a seriesed one-shot...
... Hmmm...
Would it be alright if I just wait for the series to finish and then do a post? Cuz this series just has so many variables to think about...
no subject
Date: 2008-08-07 01:53 am (UTC)I doubt you'll forget to update it, since you've been reccing all the new chapters. xD
The thing is that I am planning on deleting the previous rec entries of this series except for this post since this one has all of the parts already posted.
But haha, you can wait til the series is done, or you could just post a rec post with the parts that have already been posted, and just sumarize what the series is about. ^^
Let me know what you decide on!
no subject
Date: 2008-08-07 10:09 am (UTC)Demo ne, could you give me some time? I want to finish the rec list update first and post it A.S.A.P.!
no subject
Date: 2008-08-08 06:00 pm (UTC)So yea, you don't have to post the rec post for this series right away, I'll just leave this one posted and delete the previous ones. ^^;;
I'll probably do it tonight or something. Bah.
Btw, the rec list has been updated xD I finally got the time to do it, w00t!
no subject
Date: 2008-08-09 05:47 am (UTC)Okay...
Do you want to do it or should I?
no subject
Date: 2008-08-12 12:13 pm (UTC)I kinda already deleted the other posts. =_=
But I saved them, just in case you wanna copy and paste your summary for each individual oneshot.
download here (http://www.yousendit.com/download/Q01HT213aFJqV0R2Wmc9PQ)
=_=
However, if you want, I could do it too with our shared journal. I'll just copy and paste your summaries since it's not my rec. ^^ Let me know.

Thank YOU, Sweetie! I'll do the editting at a later time! The three fic edits are done and my next priority is the rec list so I'll do the Dylan 'verse edit after that!
