Comment or Excerpt from fic: This fic it's amazing. It's from Jack's point of view from the moment Ianto starts working at Torchwood. He is obsessed with him, slightly possessive and completely frustrated with Ianto's refusal to sleep with him. It has the best and most amazing characterization that I have read so far of Ianto in that period of time. Another must read. Really.

Comment or Excerpt from fic: I only suggest you guys not read too much into the excerpt because the rest isn't nearly as light-hearted... *points to the summary as a reminder*

And as such, I'll leave you guys to find out exactly what Ianto finds because I'll probably spoil it... *cheeky grin* I WILL say that it's a brilliant story and the angst... Besides, Rhea promised ass-kicking!Ianto, so I'm reeeeally looking forward to how the story's played-out!!

By the way, angst-central starteth from chapter 2!! ^^

EXCERPT:

Ianto cursed himself as the hot water sprayed from the shower, burning his arms as he hastily adjusted the temperature. He rather enjoyed his shower as part of an early morning ritual, which, he knew was pointless. Only for the fact that working at Torchwood wasn’t the cleanest of jobs. Feeding Myfanwy, taking care of Janet, evading Jacks wandering hands, and that was all just before 9am.
