Comment or Excerpt from fic: OH...! This is such an angsty fic. It's heartbreaking and painful and I'm probably spoiling the fic, but basically, it's a "what if it was Ianto that was taken by the rift and then given back?" I was crying my eyes-out from the very beginning and the author wasn't sure about the ending either (happy/sad), so read at your risk.

EXCERPT:

It wasn't often that Jack blamed the Rift for things. He knew it wasn't sentient, so it therefore didn't do what it did out of malice. And yet, right at that moment. As Jack was hanging off the end of a pier in the dark night air, his hand gripping the hand of his lover with a heart stopping urgency. Jack would have sworn on his own immortality that the Rift was out to ruin his life completely.
