Comment or Excerpt from fic: This fic takes place during "Exit Wounds," particularly from the point of John's arrival into the hub that had him at Ianto's gunpoint. This is a much darker take on the actual episode since it delves into Gray's psychotic nature and shows just how far and deep he's consumed by the darkness and insanity. The fic is modified a bit to allow these changes, hence the slight AU-ness. Also, BEAR IN MIND THE WARNINGS SINCE THEY'RE QUITE GRAPHICALLY DESCRIPTIVE AND AS SUCH, REALLY NOT FOR THE FAINT OF HEART.

EXCERPT:

A young man came... ambling down the cell corridor... His clothes were grey and padded... Ianto could see the resemblance between Grey and Jack... There was a brutal scar on... his face and neck... his blue eyes... steely...

Grey... moved... to stand in front of Ianto. “Ianto Jones. Loyal, pretty Ianto Jones. Eye Candy, John calls you... John told me all about each and every one of you!... gave me everything I needed to know to take Jack’s life apart... told me about Owen Harper, the cynical doctor... about Toshiko Sato, the delicate technical genius... Lovely PC Gwen Cooper, so heartbreakingly in love with Jack... And you, Ianto Jones, the faithful office fuck... You really are so very, very pretty.” Twiddling with his own wrist device, Ianto’s cell door suddenly popped open. “Come out, pretty office fuck,” Grey said, crooking a finger.

“Come in and get me,” Ianto snapped, unbuttoning his coat and tensing his muscles.
