Warnings: Imprisonment
Commentary: There is something horrfyingly hilarious about his fic. On the one hand, there is nothing funny about being in a confined space for a long period of time. On the other hand, getting just a bit too comfotrable with your cellmate can be kind of funny. Jack's observations at the end are both touching and utterly Jack, and the punchline with have you laughing on the floor.

Comment or Excerpt from fic: I have an unhealthy obsession with Smoking!Ianto. Yes, Ianto does smoke here. I don't want to put anything that gives the fic away. You just have to read it. This fic is one of my favorites atm. It doesn't have any kisses, teasing, sex and all that. Just talking and smoking which also goes for Jack. The ending is lovely. Anyways, here's the excerpt:

Ianto set his elbows on the boards around the rink. A group of teenage girls in shiny, puffy coats shrieked by, clinging to each other and drawing less attention than they wanted.

“Torchwood.”

“Ah.” Jack stubbed the cigarette out on the edge of the board. “Torchwood and I are a package deal.”

“I know.”

Comment or Excerpt from fic: Well now, this is a bit different from the usually written fics based on TW episode 1x10 (Out of Time). Rather than being a coda, it takes place somewhere in the middle of the episode, most likely before John goes to see his aged son and loses all hope of fitting into this strange future. It is fully from John’s POV and his helplessness is already evident.

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

He wandered around the Hub, exploring. A severed hand: how disgusting. Many things he could not identify. Metal, stone, mysterious goo in glass dishes. A morgue, kept locked. Computers everywhere, but he couldn't see many books. How could they trust the computers? How could they give the machines such power over them? They didn't seem to notice, or care. There was too much glass - was it safe? How did they keep the place warm and lit? It must be a colossal use of power, of expenditure, of waste.

He was worrying too much, but he couldn't let go… He wandered on. He wanted to escape, but how can you escape a time? You can only escape a place. Everywhere he went, he was still caught in this inexplicable future.

He'd never thought it would be like this.

EXCERPT



Spence grinned, and opened the door. Ianto peered inside the brightly-lit room, wincing a little at the assault on his senses. It took him a moment to be able to see clearly, and once he could, he gasped out loud in astonishment at what he was seeing.

Inside the room was a man, huddled in a far corner of the room and watching them with wild eyes. He wore filthy sweatpants and a torn, dirty tee-shirt. His hair was long and shaggy — although, Ianto was curious to note that he had no beard or any other sign of facial hair — and there were manacles around his wrists and ankles, as well as what appeared to be a leather collar around his neck. Five separate chains kept him secured to the wall.

Ianto felt a rush of anger at the inhumanity of the sight before him. “Is this some sort of joke? Since when do we lock up humans?”

“This is no joke, Jones, and we don’t consider it to be human. Say hello to Torchwood’s longest surviving resident.”

Warnings: post: Torchwood S2 ("Exit Wounds"), implied Character deaths
Comment or Excerpt from fic: This is mostly an angsty fic with a heavy dose of hurt/comfot, especially in the second part. We usually see Ianto taking care of Jack and Gwen post “Exit Wounds,” but this is just the opposite – Ianto on the brink and Gwen forcing Jack to acknowledge the fact that they need to hire more people before Ianto looses it.

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

“Jack, I need to talk to you.”

Jack looked up from his paperwork as Gwen strode determinedly into his office... Ute-oh. She looks to be gearing up for a long one...

“We need help. We need to start thinking about…replacements,” she said, hesitant but no more determined.

Jack froze at those words. Replacements? Owen and Tosh? They could never be replaced. Even though he's thought of it, it felt slightly like betrayal. “We’re handling things well, Gwen. For the time being, we’re set. We don’t need anyone,” he said but a whisper in the back of his head called him on his denial.

“Jack! Open your eyes!” she... dragged him to the window... pointing below. “Look. Down there.”

Jack closed his eyes at the sight briefly, then forced himself to do as Gwen suggested.

Comment or Excerpt from fic: Oh GOD! SO MANY ANGSTY FICS! T____T But, there’s hope yet since this fic starts out angsty, but ends on a hopeful tone (if one doesn’t think about all that happens the rest of S1, anyway… *coughs*). So, this is the author’s take on how Janto relationship changed through the course of S1 (atleast until after “Countrycide”).

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

Jack had never felt as used as he had in the beginning of his relationship with Ianto. The occasional shag without any promise of a repeat, with absolutely no emotional attachment.

Of course, he didn’t realise why until later, and by the time he did, he didn’t begrudge Ianto because of it. The young man had been in emotional turmoil - every second of the day that he was alive and sane was a blessing. His mind tore him in two and his heart just made the fight worse.

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

Jack was bored.

In fact, he was more than bored, he was practically catatonic. He was also painfully aware that today was the day for stock taking – a day... on due to copious amounts of calls from Whitehall about expenses – and he hated it.

Ianto had already shoved a huge pile of paperwork... and he was almost three quarters of the way through.

It had taken him a good three hours to get that far.

If Ianto had been with him, he would’ve pointed out that Jack hadn’t actually spent two of those hours in his office, but the captain would’ve countered that it was still looming over him, so it still counted… Sadly, Ianto wasn’t up in the main area… so… the particularly amusing conversation that had panned out... hadn’t happened.

He sighed heavily and twisted his pen through his fingers, leaning his chin on his free hand.

Comment or Excerpt from fic: Well, we move away from the angst-fest of the last few days to something more fluffy!... Well, fluffier than the previous ones. Fic based on the “Sleeper” episode from TW S2. Taking place from the moment Jack, Beth, and Gwen comeback after stopping the last sleeper agent at the military base and goes from there to post-“Sleeper.” Slightly angst, but it’s fluffy and romantic with a dash of Gwen-bashing and a whole lotta smut! *grins*

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

Ianto pulled the SUV door open, catching Jack’s limp body... and… debated what to do. Jack needed to be comfortable but there was no way to carry him down to his bunker. Unbuckling Jack’s seatbelt, he lifted... to get Jack stretched out across the back seat. The greatcoat had a tear... but nothing he couldn’t fix. He took off the greatcoat, tossing it over the front seat and cursed. Jack’s light blue shirt was blood soaked.

He shook his head. “You covered it with your coat, you twpsyn, why didn’t you let me know?” he muttered. He deftly undid the buttons of Jack’s shirt, revealing the blood soaked undershirt and a gaping wound... He lifted Jack’s head and slid into the seat, cradling him in his lap... “I wish you would’ve told me, we could’ve talked on the comms. You know I hate when you die on your own... But I’m here now...”

A few minutes passed and the silence was deafening.

Comment or Excerpt from fic: I do so adore fics where Janto are doing something domestic and this is no different! And the images of Ianto trying on a new suit is just a bonus! *grins*

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

Ianto glanced around... instinctively looking for Jack. The Captain had opted to wait outside the shop, already bored by shopping, as Ianto had known he would be. Quite why Jack had wanted to come in the first place had confused Ianto, but he wasn’t one to argue when Jack wanted to spend time with him.

He spotted Jack a couple of shops away, hands in his pockets, head tilted to one side, as if he was contemplating something in one of the windows. Smiling to himself, he shifted the weight of the shopping bags in his hands and went to stand beside Jack.

There was a sarcastic quip on his lips as he approached, but it was forgotten as he saw what Jack was staring at. A three-piece suit hung on one of the mannequins, black, with a crimson lining that matched the tie knotted around the neck. It was a well-tailored suit and Ianto was certain that it would have a price tag to reflect that.

Jack drank his shot and winced as it burned his throat. It was the sixth he’d consumed and it still burned. It doesn’t get better, he thought morosely, it never fucking gets better. But this was his nights off now. Trolling around in pubs instead of spending his time at home…the home he could no longer bear to step into.

He held up his glass to signal the bartender, then noticed someone looking at him from across the bar. A woman, blonde, smiling at him. She was obviously drunk, but fuck it all, she was cute and Jack needed…he knew what he needed, but he wasn’t going to get that so this woman would have to do.

He approached her, “Hi, I’m…Chris.” Not Jack. She wouldn’t say it right. “You...live around here?” a crap chat-up line he knows, but she doesn’t seem to care. Jack knows how that feels.

EXCERPT:

Something had been off all day, Jack was telling himself it was all in the mind as no one else in the hub seemed to be experiencing the same thing. He kept seeing things just out the corner of his eye that was gone when he looked around and the little hairs on the back of his neck could be lying to him, couldn't they when they stood on end?

Once the others had left for the night and Jack was alone the feeling he was being watched grew, he had scoured the whole hub via the CCTV and in person and found nothing. Bloody Halloween he muttered to himself as he turned off the lights and slid down the ladder into his small room beneath his office, not expecting to come face to face with a ghost.

Spoilers: End of Doctor Who Season 4
Summary: Jack finds a novel way to show Ianto what the Doctor means to him.

What can I can about this fic? It's well written, insightful into both Jack's past relationship with the Doctor and his current relationship with Ianto and the sex between Jack and Ianto is believeable despite the kink and is amazingly hot.

Excerpt:
"So tell me about him, the one before," Ianto says softly, and Jack tips his head back against the wall with a soft exhalation, something between a laugh and a sigh.

Then he turns his head and looks at Ianto, and his eyes look incredibly old. Ianto can't leave such a depth of longing uncomforted. He leans in to curl a hand round Jack's jaw and kisses him softly. Jack makes a tiny sound of want and kisses back, gentle and warm but somehow so lost underneath it all that Ianto finds himself wishing savagely that Jack had never met the damn Doctor.

He doesn't let it show, however. He just stays there for a long time, holding and kissing Jack, until Jack finally stops holding back and starts to deepen the kiss, hands coming up to cup Ianto's face, and Ianto gasps because no matter how many times they do this, the intensity of Jack's desire always takes him by surprise.

His dreams rain fire so that when he opens his eyes, he sees streamers-orange and red and an insidious sulfur yellow—and they burn.

Maybe it’s the salt tears.


He can’t sleep, can’t stay another minute with his head against the sweat-stale pillow case, the one he hasn’t changed in days, which isn’t like him."

EXCERPT:

The candles flickered, casting twitching shadows across the... walls and... stained glass windows. The pews were... facing a... altar on a dais. The sun was... casting a bloody glow through the ornate glass behind it, the colours blending... and painting the sole occupant of the room. All was silent, except for the soft clicking of beads knocking together as a rosary was clasped between desperate, lonely hands. The door opened and creaked, making the man sitting... tense and snatch the beads up.

“Have you come for confession, son?” An old, kindly voice asked...

“No... just came to get my head together.” The man answered... avoiding the father’s eyes... he strode... to the door at the back. He paused for a moment and glanced at the... shelving filled with tea-lights. After a moment’s thought, he picked up a fresh one and lit it, placing it carefully on the... row before slipping out of the room.

“Jack?” Ianto called, none of the alarm he felt showing in his voice. The gun held firmly in both hands, however suggested otherwise.

“What’s up?” Jack called back...

“Can you come here please. Sir.” Ianto replied just as calmly

That got Jack’s attention. While he sighed in frustration at Ianto’s continued use of the damn ‘sir’ thing he’d never heard it inflected in quiet that way before. Frowning he left his paper work, secretly hoping it didn’t breed... and... multiply on im. He was already half convinced Ianto must have a bloody breeding program hidden in the archives somewhere... and clattered down the steps to the main part of the Hub.

He froze at the sight that greeted him... He freaking hated Monday’s...

He loved the excitement... the thrill... the running... But... that wasn’t enough anymore, and he realised something quite suddenly.

“When did we become something more than a quick fumble in row M of the archives?” Jack mused aloud. He waited... watching the steady rise and fall of Ianto’s chest… “Oh, Ianto Jones.” Jack sighed wistfully… “Some days I don’t know what I’d do without you.” Jack smiled fondly… gaze… solely on Ianto… “That’s what I love about you... You’re always there no matter what... You make everything more bearable... by just being you... You make forever more bearable… I’m a changed man because of you Ianto Jones... Changed for the better.”

Leaning against the doorframe, he asked dryly, “You yelled?”

“Look!” exclaimed Jack turning round to at him, “Look!” he pointed...

When Ianto just looked blankly... for a moment then burst out laughing.
