Comment or Excerpt from fic: Well, it's based on that scene in said episode. I really don't blame Ianto for being as bitter as he was, really.

EXCERPT:

When Ianto walked in the Hub next morning, the first thing he noticed was the bunch of colourful confetti lying on the ground. He wondered what it was all about for a moment, but then just shook his head and thought about Jack and his slightly crazy ideas. He kept going towards Jack’s office... but the computer in the other room beeped. Ianto hurried towards it.

“Weevils!” he called back, but Jack was already by his side, his hand once again on Ianto’s shoulder.

“It seems we’ve got work to do,” Jack smiled at Ianto, pushing him towards the exit.

“It’s been a while, hasn’t it?”

“Yeah, it has, but not anymore. Come on.” He pushed him one more time and they went together through the oval door.

Comment or Excerpt from fic: A crazy and hilarious fic! Of course, it can't be anything else when the bride's a human and previous companion of the Doctor's who's traveled space and time and her friends in the wedding party that include said Doctor (a Time Lord), his recent companion who's a feisty red-head, and Torchwood 3 (alien fighting institute) team consisting of the immortal leader and also a previous companion to said Time Lord, his snarky and sarcastic but intelligent lover and employee, another employee whose the only female that's recently married and impregnated by an alien at the time of her marriage and her husband, probably the only normal and sane person in the group, but just how long he can retain that sanity remains to be seen!

EXCERPT:

It was the 14th of August and on this day, just less than thirty minutes ago, Miss Martha Jones became officially Mrs. Milligan... “I love weddings!” announced the Doctor with a grin...

“High drama, potential for disaster, but an all around happy ending,” Jack listed with a beatific smile...

“Would you choose one over an office party, then?” Ianto asked...

“Who says I have to choose? My next wedding, I’m having it at an office. I’ll exchange vows by the fax machine.”

“And no doubt honeymoon by the copier,” Ianto predicted with an indulgent smile.

Gwen laughed so violently into her drink it nearly sloshed over.

Donna wondered if her time with the Doctor had heightened her tolerance for the bizarre a lot more than she’d originally estimated. The on going conversation didn’t seem that strange.

Comment or Excerpt from fic: Fluffy fic where Tosh discovers Jack's feelings for Ianto through a song and persuades him ask Ianto out. ^^

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

Tosh stood enraptured... She could see his face glowing, his eyes holding such a dreamy look of romance it was almost tangible. As she listened, Tosh slowly realised who he was thinking about... she asked... “Does he know?”

Jack... shook his head, confessing, ”Do you really think he’d want me back – after everything I did to him?... to the team?”

Tosh... giving him a semi-stern look, chided, ”Jack –he spent those months you were gone pining for you. Of course he wants you back; you just have to tell him how you feel.” Jack bowed his head and shot her a look that spoke volumes. Stepping closer, Tosh... said softly, ”Jack, I watched you walk away from a man that you loved and I saw how much that hurt you. Please, don’t make me watch you walk away from another lover just because you’re afraid of what his response will be... please, just tell him how you feel. For all our sakes just tell him.”

Comment or Excerpt from fic: Even with it being an "Exit Wounds'" fic, it is mostly about Ianto and Tosh. What he wasn't able to do when she was alive, Ianto wants to do what little he can now that she's gone...

It is such an emotional fic that shows the depth of Ianto's and Tosh's friendship, so heartbreakingly painful. It broke me...

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

A low, mournful whimper escaped the young Welshman’s throat as he fought against Jack. He held his ground, his hands refused to relinquish the task of sealing the body bag despite the near violent shaking...

“Hey, hey,” he said softly and pressed both trembling hands to his broad chest, above his heart... effectively trapping their hands between their bodies. “You don’t have do to this now,” he insisted...

Ianto flexed his fingers, trying to feel Jack’s heartbeat... He couldn’t really blame him. He too was finding comfort in the steady rhythm of Ianto’s pulse... reminding him that he was still here, alive.

“Someone has to.”

Jack titled his head... and welcomed the sting of fresh tears. “I should be doing it,” ...

Ianto shook his head... the message clear... “She told me once she’d take care of me... It’s the least I can do.”

Comment or Excerpt from fic: *ROFL* It's AMAZING (though not really surprising) how far Jack would go to not pay for groceries... Not blatant Janto, but... *shrugs*

EXCERPT:

"So let me get this straight," The cashier said, placing the tomatoes in the bag, "there’s a rift in space and time… it’s running right under my cash register which means if I press the total button the world will go to hell? That’s the reason you’re not going to pay?"

The American man shook his head... "No, there is a rift in space and time, but it’s cracked, one of those cracks runs under your register."

She leaned... to look at the floor at the man’s feet, "That’s funny, it looks more like a crack in the concrete to me."

"Do you believe in aliens?"

"... what does this have to do with the 22.50 you owe me?"
