Comment or Excerpt from fic: So much happening and so many emotions - what a ride! This is a fast-paced and plotty fic where Ianto's kidnapped by someone and surprisingly, it's not anyone from Jack's past for once. Hurt!Ianto and angry!Jack are a given, but Tosh has an important role and is on the forefront (FINALLY!). So it's a race against time to find Ianto and save him, but unfortunately, the demand is for something that Jack doesn't have anymore.

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

The waterfront restaurant was the ideal place for a date, a fact that hadn’t gone unnoticed if the happy couples crowded inside were anything to go by... and he knew that they were watching him... For all of them, however, the situation was perfectly clear: Captain Jack Harkness, intergalactic Casanova, had been stood up. It certainly wasn’t the first time... but Jack had never expected Ianto to punish him, humiliate him, quite so publicly... Jack would have never called Ianto... cruel... He... pulled his greatcoat on, already striding... in the direction of Ianto’s house. He wanted answers and... he wasn’t prepared to leave Ianto alone until he had them...

Jack... hammered on Ianto’s front door... not caring that he was making a scene... until it occurred to him that Ianto’s silence was uncharacteristic... The spark of worry flared into a flame and he began to dig around in his pocket for the bunch of keys... He stepped into the hall, eyes widening in horror as he looked around.

Comment or Excerpt from fic: This is one of the most gorgeously written fics that I've ever had the pleasure to read... and believe me, I've read a LOT! Taking place slightly before "Exit Wounds," but post-2x09 "Something Borrowed," it starts off with Ianto's body carrying a "foreign entity" (*coughBABYcough*) and what follows are a series of events that're nothing like any mpreg fics I've ever read! Very unexpected! And the twists and turns in this fic just keep you at the edge of your seat!

*starry eyed* I'm in absolute AWE!!

*_______________________________________________________*

I don't have the slightest clue how else to explain this fic other than to urge you to read it yourself, so GO READ!!

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

Ianto... froze at the unmistakable sound of Jack's revolver cocking behind him... Ianto slowly raised both hands... and... slowly turned... to look up at Jack... "Jack... What..." What did I do...

"We're not going to hurt you," Jack said... "... You're showing up funny on the scanners, and we need to figure out what's going on before it takes you over or kills you..."

Owen... pointed a hand-held scanner at Ianto's chest, sweeping it slowly downward... "Damn... Definitely something alive in there--pretty small, though. Get it with the singularity scalpel, no trouble..." Owen let out a strange noise then, staring at the scanner... "Haven't seen one... in a long while, but... Homo sap, I reckon."

Ianto blinked at it. "It's human?"

"It's a baby..."

Status: Complete
Length: Oneshot
Comment or Excerpt from fic:
~_~_~_~_~_~

It’s an ordinary morning, three weeks after Jack came back. Ianto is washing the cafetiere and thinking about buying gingerbread syrup for Christmas. Tosh would like that and Owen wouldn’t, which seems like reason enough, but Ianto is still undecided on where he stands in relation to flavoured syrups. Coffee should be tasty enough without additions, but sometimes an extra flavour can turn the coffee-related experience into something different and new. And Ianto is a strong believer in expanding the range of coffee-related experiences.

Status: Complete
Length: ONeshot
Comment or Excerpt from fic:
~_~_~_~

A red welt curling at the back of his neck, finger-shaped marks on his arms and wrists, an uneven cut on his forehead. Many wounds that should have been kissed better, soothed and caressed and forgotten through other kinds of touch.

Not that Jack would dare, not so soon after Lisa. Ianto still hasn't stopped flinching whenever Jack touches him; every clap on the back and nudge of the arm producing a momentary tensing in his shoulders. It's not enough to make Jack stop, of course, not when Ianto so clearly needs to be reminded that he is still a member of this team, still appreciated and needed and touched with the same fondness that Jack touches everyone else. But it keeps Jack from suggesting anything more, from letting his hands linger too often.

Comment or Excerpt from fic: This is

butterflycell's take on how TW S2 should've gone. It's a HUGE fic 13 parts, 10 chapters each) that's still in the works and one which I am eagerly looking forward to reading... AGAIN! *grins* I'm also glad to see it posted here on LJ! FINALLY! *LOL* So, mostly canon, but it turns AU down the line with interesting twists and turns. I eagerly await the updates! ^^

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

As he worked... he allowed himself to address the main problem he had. When - if - Jack came back to them, would he finally make a decision about who he wanted?

Whilst it was Ianto who Jack slept with... and turned to for comfort, it was Gwen who occupied most of his time. It was painfully obvious in the way they moved around each other that they desperately wanted to have a whirlwind affair... Gwen would always go back to solid, reliable Rhys... but the ending was always the same, no matter what the story…

With a sigh, Ianto closed his thoughts off again and returned to his work. It was hard to try and tell himself that he would be okay with Gwen and Jack together, too hard. He knew, deep down, that the moment that Jack walked back in - if Jack walked back in - he would be putty in his hands once more.

aerinbooke
Genre: Romance, Angst
Rating: R
Summary: Ianto sits alone in the dark, playing Judy at Carnegie Hall.
Status: Complete.
Length: Oneshot.
Warnings: Spoilers for 'Lost Souls', non graphic sex.
Comment or Excerpt from fic: I have absolutely not read anything good like it. It makes you wish this is what they had. Maybe it is what they have. Personally, even trying to come to a conclusion of what Jack and Ianto really are makes my head hurt. But this fic makes you understand it in a way that you want it to be canon. It makes you tingle, and the structure is just brilliant. Amazing story, it is.

He reaches a hand out and strokes Ianto’s cheek with the backs of his fingers, eyes softened by the muted quality of the record and the poignancy of sitting in the darkness with the pleasantly low-fidelity music washing over them. Ianto turns his face to look at Jack and there’s so much of Judy’s struggle, Judy’s faith in the poor young man’s eyes it takes his breath, makes him cup Ianto’s cheek all the more tenderly, the more closely.

A one man woman looking for the man that got away.

When he moves again it is because Ianto moves first, leaning gently into Jack’s body, arching up to meet Jack’s mouth with his own. This part they can do; this part is easy; this part is forever. His mouth is cool and sweet, his tongue is soft and languorous, his breath is deep and slow. For the first time in his long, long afterlife, Jack has found a place he isn’t thinking of leaving.

Warnings: spoilers until and post-Torchwood 1x06 "Countrycide," implied: Violence, Abuse (physical), Torture, Non-Con
Comment or Excerpt from fic: Fic dealing with the aftermath of Countrycide when Ianto is forgotten and things are worst than before with the added threat of past betrayal. This fic is an emotional ride where Ianto's past and some hidden secrets are brought into light, but it ends on a hopeful note.

Bear the warnings in mind for some disturbing imagery and implications.

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

Ianto took a few minutes to sit by himself... Anyone observing him would have seen the swollen black eye, the bleeding cuts... A closer observer would have noticed the quick, shallow breathing... glazed eyes... the occasional shaking... Ianto, however, was practically invisible. It was a trait taught to him at his father’s knee... and... little Ianto would learn to internalize life... as... He quickly learned that by becoming invisible he could escape the bruises... bloody noses and the burns... At times like this, though, he wasn’t sure if he liked being invisible.

Being invisible today meant that he was ignored. In one respect that was good... It also meant, though, that everyone had apparently forgotten that mere hours ago he had almost joined the ranks of the fillet-ed... Ianto... broke through his... reverie. Slowly standing, all sound was cut off by the feeling of blood rushing in his ears. He steadied himself against the nearest tree, bracing himself... And that’s when the black spots came back again.

Comment or Excerpt from fic: Sequel to Forgotten (recced at the top). The first half of this fic deals with Ianto/Tosh friendship that has been developing since the last fic and in the latter half, we have Jack trying to bring Ianto into the team by taking him to a UNIT conference on a mission to retrieve alien tech. Ianto is more assertive and so kick-ass in this fic, a total 180 from the submissive and passive Ianto of before. And Ianto/Tosh friendship is just so heartwarming!

Bear the warnings in mind.

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

After Jack sent Mary to the sun, Ianto was left to interview Tosh. He was quiet, and considerate, rubbing her back as she cried and somehow coming up with an endless supply of tissues. He was kind, but thorough, the only one of the team not to blame Tosh for her indiscretion. Tosh was still raw, Ianto could see that; he knew the rawness, knew how it could eat at your soul... He’d remembered...

Summary: Summary: "I can't believe Jack's urge to get naked got us banned from a pub."
Status: Oneshot
Length: ~1200 words
Warnings: None
Comment: Okay, so I'll read pretty much anything by

out_there , but this one fic is especially wonderful- it goes from silly to OMGHOTHOTHOT in the space of about 30 seconds, and it does it well too.
Excerpt:
"I can't believe Jack's urge to get naked got us banned from a pub." Owen pauses, swallows, then adds, "And yet, it did."

Jack's not sure how Gwen finds the ability to look truly shocked by this idea, but she does. "Don't tell us you got banned for shagging someone in a pub," she says slowly.

Sometimes, it's like his team doesn't even know him. "Trust me, I never get kicked out for that," Jack says, grinning. Then he sees the unimpressed expression on Ianto's face. "Not that I've tested that recently."

Unrelated: This is my first time posting and I can't help but notice that my entry doesn't have the sixty bajillion tags I see on everyone else's. If you think I'm missing one, please comment.

Comment or Excerpt from fic: Another post-"Cyberwoman" fic. I've read many and while most follow... suspension of Ianto, Jack coming to see Ianto during the suspension, Ianto's decision and subsequent return to TW3 post suspension, and so on and so forth. And while I LOVE those fics, I haven't read many that deal with the immediate aftermath before Jack orders Ianto's suspension - all those feelings of betrayal, anger, despair, etc. In this fic, Ianto is utterly broken and Jack's emotions war between anger at the betrayal and helplessness. As such, this fic is DARK and violent to a degree (just because Jack can't seem to be able to control his anger), so bear that in mind.

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

Jack returned to the cellar to find Ianto still kneeling where he’d left him. The young man looked completely and utterly broken and as Jack strode into the room he didn’t even look up. Jack’s initial anger had melted away leaving him almost empty... Ianto just kept starting at the floor... breath... coming in short ragged, almost painful, gasps. Jack frowned as he noticed how pale Ianto appeared... There were tear tracks visible... cutting through the grime. Jack... had never realised... just how young Ianto really was. But kneeling there, face splashed with the remains... and his clothes soaking up the blood, he looked no more than a boy and Jack suddenly felt... his anger morph into terrible, guilt-ridden understanding... The sight killed Jack. Ianto looked shattered. His eyes, red raw from crying, now gazed blankly at Jack. Jack swallowed then... coldly... indicated to the door, watching detachedly as Ianto stumbled forward, the younger man’s body barely functioning as he obeyed the order.

Comment or Excerpt from fic: This is a hilarious fic dealing with Torchwood, aliens, and communication problems and as always, Jack's in the middle. But for once, they want to save Jack rather than kill him! ^^

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

Jack walked purposefully... to where Tosh had picked up the ship... Hopefully this would be... a quick and easy job that got him back to the Hub as quickly as possible so that he could work his way through the list of ‘Reasons why staying in is much more fun than going to a poncy restaurant.’.. As transporters went, it was quite a smooth one, just a brief feeling like walking through four-dimensional custard and the field vanished...

~ ~

Ianto had taken off his jacket... It was a shame about the date, but business before pleasure... He glanced back... to the comms scan running on the next monitor over. The four dots were flashing away merrily. He took another slice of pizza and promptly dropped it in his lap as one of the dots abruptly vanished from the screen.

“Bugger.” he whispered under his breath.

Comment or Excerpt from fic: Oh

anduria_trianys just hits a few of my kinks with this fic... *starry eyed* As much as I adore mythology of any kind, I've first been introduced to Greek and I'm a fanatic in that sense! Anyway, I'm gonna take a wild guess and say that the rift has been acting crazy and been sending Janto through space and time. As the summary states, their latest trip brings them to Ancient Greece in the 10th year of the Trojan War. Being in a time and place where one doesn't belong puts them in a precarious position as is, but knowing what will happen, will Jack and Ianto let events occur in their natural order or will they attempt to chance events, inadvertently changing history as they know it, consequences and paradoxes be damned?

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

He smiled as he recalled the little sojourn to Rome – the reign of Hadrian... Although, now he came to think about it... Ianto’s eyes widened in concern and he stared...

“... Last time I looked, Rome didn’t have a beach, so…where are we?”

Jack frowned. “We seem to be in the middle of the sea... but... then, I suppose the right question isn’t ‘Where are we?’ but ‘When are we?’ Because you’re right; this is not Rome – and those over there look to me like they could be Greek ships.”

... together they swam towards the shore... several tents and campfires came into view, all set up beside the ships. But what they saw as they came closer were several large wood pyres, some of them still smoking.

“My God!” exclaimed Jack. “Just – when are we?”

Ianto... looked up... but still managed to appear beautifully confused. “Jack, surely you know I love you...”

Ianto... realised what his partner was saying... saw the sheer depth of his emotions displayed openly... “Jack…” he whispered, drawing him into his arms... Jack’s arms were around him and he was leading him through the water in a tender dance to the music of the beating waves mirroring the rhythm of his heart.

“I’ve wanted to do this for so long,” Jack murmured into his hair... “Just…stand here, with you, doing what we’re doing... You and me, right here; holding each other and dancing in the Aegean…that’s all I want right now. I just want to be right here…just with you, right here.”

Comment or Excerpt from fic: Sequel to Danger Zone. Okay, so I thought Danger Zone was angst-central, but it's got nothing on this! So, John's gone, but leaves behind one team member hurt and on the verge of dying, and it's not who you think! This fic isn't as action-oriented as the last, but it's all emotional and angsty and just makes me cry! *sniffles*

Comment or Excerpt from fic: Sequel to Sky Blue and Black and fourth (also probably the last) in the series. You know, I should've known that there will always be something more angsty than what's already been written... =___=;; So, rather than comparing fics on the angst scale, I'll just say that this is one of the most ANGSTY and HEARTBREAKINGLY PAINFUL pieces I've EVER read and...! And...! *bawling her eyes out*

Comment or Excerpt from fic: Well, this fic is one HECK of a roller-coaster ride! Having watched only the last two episodes of DW so far, I must admit that this fic can be made into actual cross-over episodes should anyone consider it! It's fast-pased and exciting and we meet characters that were lost to us again and that just made be cry others that just made me want to maim them... BUT! It's a marvelously written fic and very complex and so very exciting!

But at times, I was forced to wonder how multiple paradoxes didn't occur since characters... *coughJackcough* DO cross their parallel selves... ^^;; But even so, a MUST READ!

~*~*~*~*~~~

EXCERPT:

There was no simplicity left in the world... It was unbearable, the loneliness... There was so much out there... and most of it was out of reach... Torchwood dealt with the scum of the universe, not its wonders... there was something out there, something magnificent... but from where he was standing... it... couldn’t be farther away...

... As Ianto walked, a tremor swept violently through the city. The earth rumbled... and Ianto... thought he’d seen everything, but... that familiar, blindingly bright, blue and silver light tore through the sky, space, and time itself, causing... the world to collapse... a fresh wave of golden energy poured out of the Rift. Time itself came to a stop... and... all stared up at it in alarm... facing an abyss that threatened to consume them. And then... it was consuming them, pulling them off the ground and sucking them in like a vacuum... and... Seconds later they were hurtling through time and space.

Rating: R
Other/Implied Pairings: Jack/OFC
Summary: At fifty, Ianto Jones is aging like fine wine. Often, Jack likes Ianto better this way. A pretty young thing will never fail to turn his head, but there is nothing like a gentleman, with experience and wisdom and a refreshing sense of refinement.

Warnings: Het.
Comment or Excerpt from fic: Oh this is one of THE most heartbreaking fics I've ever read! It's written in a totally different element, very fantasy-like and very different from any other fantasy~esque Torchwood fics I've ever read. Because of the topic, I was expecting the story to take place in dreamscape because of the fantasy feel, but I was proven wrong... by more than a mile and my heart just broke even more. Very heartwrenching piece where Jack and Ianto are forced apart by out-worldly circumstances.

... I probably just confused everyone with that comment, but... *sniffles**keeps a box of tissue on hand*

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

It’s a lonely planet. It’s five times the size of Earth, but there’s just one kingdom. The rest is landscapes... lush and beautiful... but it goes on forever, and lacks any true sense of life.

... Thunder rumbles... as Jack makes the journey... the storm showing signs of arriving earlier than predicted. Jack doesn’t care. It can rain a monsoon and he’ll stay out here, because he’s never been able to resist heartbreak.

The Garden is beyond the castle walls, a short walk... Jack uses it often, a place to think, surrounded by flowers and babbling brooks and the song of the bird. It’s a small slice of perfect paradise in an otherwise vastly desolate planet and it’s the Garden that makes Jack return to this dull little world every thousand years, because he’s weak and needy and still misses sections of his past when he wasn’t so alone... It’s all he can do, until the right hour when the universes connect for a brief moment in time.

Summary: Jack asks Ianto something he doesn’t think is fair.
Status: COMPLETE
Length: One-Shot
Word Count: ~ 1,965
Warnings: spoilers for Doctor Who series 4 finale, Dark, Character Death
Comment or Excerpt from fic: This fic is based on Jack's "coming back to life" reaction and the author's take on how it changed in DW S4. I have to say that I've tries not to dwell on it, but now that it's been brought into light, I must admit that I'd wondered about it as well.

So, this is a DARK and ANGSTY piece with mentions of multiple deaths of a character, so read at your own risk!!

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

‘Jack. What is it?’

... ‘I need you to do something for me…’ Jack took a deep breath and... reached behind him bringing out a standard issue Torchwood hand gun and pressing it into Ianto’s hand.

‘What? What’s this for? Jack?’

Jack bowed his head and mumbled into his chest, ‘Ianto, I’m sorry. I shouldn’t ask this of you –‘

‘Jack! What are talking about?!’

‘I need you to kill me. A lot.’

Comment or Excerpt from fic: Fics that bring about Ianto's mortality to the foreground always break my heart - death, memories, forever, life... But at the same time, I also like Jack and Ianto together in spite of what the future brings. This just shows the depth of their feelings for me.

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

"Why were you looking at photos of me as a kid?"

... "I..." Jack sighed and took a breath before trying again. "Because I want to memorize every bit of your life, I want to remember your tooth gap when you were five and grinned like mad into the camera, proudly holding the tooth up. I want to remember your evil grin, when you put a frog on your sister's tummy, I want to remember the happy smile when you got that skateboard you wished for. I want to remember your satisfied smile when you graduated."

"But you weren't there when all that happened."

"But I wish I had been. Because as much time as we might have together, it will never be enough. I want as many memories of you as I can get."

Comment or Excerpt from fic: This is one of those gap-filler fics that you know probably didn't happen, but wish it DID because you just love your OTP and would read anything with a little fluff and romance and squeal. Janto's three not-so-dates...

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

“Ianto... You got plans tonight?”

Ianto’s smile didn’t falter, although he did... “Trick question, sir,” he said. Jack looked hopeful. “Are you genuinely interested in my personal life, or are you checking to see if I’m available to help you sort something out?”

“I want to know if you’d like to get a meal,” said Jack. “It’d just be you and me, though...”

“I have a roast that if I don’t cook it tonight, I’ll have to throw it out,” said Ianto...

“Oh,” said Jack. He sounded almost disappointed... “Okay...” Jack turned to go, and Ianto did something that he knew might be a mistake. He cleared his throat. Jack stopped, turned back. Raised an eyebrow.

“I know my cooking isn’t brilliant, but you could at least give me a time,” Ianto said pointedly.

Jack broke into a grin.

Comment or Excerpt from fic: I remember reading this fic way back and I fell in love with it by the middle of the first chapter! Being hooked on to it ever since, I'm surprised I didn't rec it already! ^^;; Anyway, Jack is forced to attend a U.N.I.T. conference in Scotland... All alone. But before he gets a chance to kill U.N.I.T. in anger, he gets one HELL of a surprise! His trip doesn't look all that boring at all now!

All I can say is that this fic's FUNNY! And CUTE! And ROMANTIC! And just makes me want to swoon!

*____________________________________*

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

Spending three days at a large estate in the rolling hills of Scotland would have been ideal under any other circumstances, but being forced to attend a U.N.I.T. conference wasn’t Jack’s idea of a good time... His reverie was interrupted... “Ach, there you are Captain... Your Aide asked me to... let you know that he had arrived...”

“My AIDE?” Jack asked, dumbfounded... “Who the hell is passing themselves off as my Aide?”... As Jack strode along the wide corridors, he got angrier and angrier. Bloody U.N.I.T. was always interfering. The last thing he needed was some flunky paper pusher following him around for the next three days... He had barely stepped into his room... when he felt someone pinning him to the back of the door and kissing him with fierce intensity. Light bulbs and fireworks rocketed through Jack’s brain at the same time.

“Ianto, oh Ianto,” Jack whispered against the other man’s mouth.
