Title: World Enough, and Time
Author: [livejournal.com profile] soraismus
Genre: angst, romance, mystery
Rating: PG
Length: ~2,400
Status: Complete
Warnings: Character death of the only sort of temporary kind.
Summary: A man gets so many chances.
Commentary: If you take a look at the tags, you'll notice that we at [community profile] janto_recshave this thing about giving Ianto more time. We make him immortal. We make him a timelord. We have him die of old age, or at least in his thirties. World Enough, and Time is a sweet little piece that plays with the idea of Ianto returning again and again. As [personal profile] taffimaisaid in the comments, "For a story that had Ianto die about fifteen times, this is really adorable."
Excerpt: Jack's died ten thousand times; he's only lived once. As far as he knows, as far as he's ever experienced, only one of those things makes him different from every other human.

Title: Nortorious
Author: [livejournal.com profile] blue_fjords
Genre: Action/Adventure, Suspense, Thriller
Rating: NC-17
Summary: An homage to Alfred Hitchcock’s Notorious, 1940s melodrama/suspense. Ianto goes undercover. Jack reacts.
Status: Complete
Length: 12,000 words in two parts
Warnings: Ianto/OFC
Comment: Ianto is remarkable for many reasons, but one thing that has always stood out in the minds of many fans is how easily he was able to con his way into a position in Torchwood Three- as well as a position in Jack's life. He conned the con-man, and that takes skills. This fic is wonderful because it not only showcases those skills, but Jack's reactions to watching someone else succumb to them.
Excerpt from fic:
“This castle is quite lovely, though I imagine it would be extremely hard to heat in the winter, what with all of the concealed nooks and crannies,” she said.

How subtle, Jack’s voice sounded in his ear. “It is, at that. Still, we wouldn’t want our Castle any other way, I’m sure. Ianto Jones,” he proffered his hand. “I’m with the Welsh Tourism Board.”

She laughed a little tinkly laugh and took his hand. “Alexandra Sebastian. I dabble in antiques – restoration, procurement, that sort of thing.” Her hand was soft but her grip was hard.

"I saw your husband go to the toilet," the air hostess confessed quietly.

"Rhys?" Gwen said with a frown. Wait, that was her real husband. The woman was talking about Ianto. "Oh! Okay." She didn't get it. "What's the big deal about my husband going to the loo?"

The young girl took a deep breath and explained awkwardly, "He went to the toilet with another man."

Gwen blinked at her, then slowly covered her face with the palm of her hand.

Title: Perfect
Pairings: Jack/Ianto: Owen/Ianto friendship: implied Owen/Tosh: implied Gwen/Jack (unrequited/not acted upon): team love (of the platonic kind)
Genre: Fluff, mild angst, fluff
Rating: M for swearing. Lots and lots of swearing. Not bad swearing. Mostly pissed (drunk, if you're an American) swearing.
Spoilers: All of S1, first ep of S2 but selectively. This sort of AUs away simply in that in trying to write fluff, I wrote a sitcom. Dr Who: Last of the Time Lords and surrounding eps. I have made some assumptions about the TW team's ability to contact people and be contacted. Spoilers for the name of the guy at TW2.
Precis: When Jack died, they splintered. When he left, they drew together. Friday night drinks at Ianto's before and after the end of the human race.
Commentary: [livejournal.com profile] misswinterhill 's stuff is always a joy to read, and this fic is no exception. The very idea of the team going over to Ianto's to drink and watch him be drunk is cracktastic, yet none of the team are OOC, even when Ianto and Owen end up in the same bed. You will laugh throughout the entire fic, I promise you.
Exerpt: “Your problem,” said Owen, tapping his fingers against the tiles. “Is that you’re too thin. We need to feed you up and then you’ll hold your piss better.”

“My problem,” said Ianto, miserably. “Is that I drank nearly an entire bottle of bourbon on my own.”

Title: Different Sort of Science
Author: [personal profile] gracie_musica 
Genre:
AU, Angst, Fluff, Drama, Supernatural, Humor
Rating: NC-17
Summary: Magic is just a different sort of science
Status: Complete
Length: 30 chapters
Warnings: Ianto/Lisa, slightly weird familial relationships, but other than that you're in for a wonderful ride
Comment: This is AMAZING like you wouldn't believe- tailor!Ianto and uberpowerfulMage!Ianto and jealous!Jack and all sorts of wonderful, wonderful things like that. It features characters from Doctor Who and Sarah Jane Adventures as well as the entire cast of Torchwood- even PC Andy makes an apperance as an adorkable kid in the last chapter. The format is wonderful as well- each chapter opens with a quote from the series, which perfectly, and sometimes hilariously, sets the tone for the chapter.Everything a Torchwood AU should be, this is a fic you really don't want to miss out on.

It's the simple things, the little moments that can completely throw your life off the course it's firmly been set on.

For Ianto Jones, it had been something as simple as offering help with a stubborn horse.

Title: Random Shoes (The Four Day Jones Remix)
Author: [livejournal.com profile] marginaliana 
Pairing: Ianto/Eugene/Martha
Rating: NC-17
Status: Complete 
Length: Oneshot
Word Count: ~15,000
Warnings: explicit sex – het, slash, and other; character deaths (but you should know who's dead already)
Spoilers: Set post Exit Wounds
Summary: He doesn't deserve to be forgotten. Jones and Jones (and Jones). AU.
Commentary: Okay cheating fics aren't exactly my cup of tea, but this works on so many, many levels. The first of which is that all participants have the last name of Jones. The second of which is that the reasoning behind the cheating is done so well- Jack not really all there, you can tell, and Ianto is feeling really frustrated about his inability to bring him back. Ianto's search for closure from Eugene's death is as much about his search for answers about where his life is going now as it is anything else, and Eugene is such an unabashed Ianto fanboy it makes you laugh. Plus, you know, Jack/Ianto smut at the end.

Comment or Excerpt from fic: I can't believe I forgot to rec this fic! U.U Anyways, this is the author's take on TW S1 and (hopefully) eventually S2! It mostly follows canon events, but the author modifies it enough to be AU, especially the beginning chapters... and it's a BRILLIANT fic and long as hell! *_____*

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

When a job went wrong, go back to the beginning.

Good advice, Ianto had always thought. And no job had ever gone as wrong as completely and as spectacularly as Torchwood. How many last days at a job were filled with destruction, tears and blood? But how to go back to the beginning, he had wondered. Torchwood was gone, burned, might as well salt the earth and walk away.

But Ianto hadn’t been able to let go for the simplest and most dangerous of reasons – love. Lisa was still alive and he had sworn to save her... He woke with tears... again. Lying there, unable to summon the strength... he let his mind wander. What to do, where to go, who to trust, how to find help… And then Vizzini’s rule crept into his mind. Go back to the beginning…Torchwood…the beginning… And Ianto knew what he had to do.

Torchwood. That meant Torchwood Three. That meant Cardiff…and Captain Jack Harkness.

Comment or Excerpt from fic: Usually, I try to avoid character cheating fics (unless I'm in a vindictive mood), but this fic has a twist in the sense that it's Jack and Ianto that cheat with each other on their fiancée/wife, so I'm all for it!

...

... Guess that makes me a hypocrite, but...! BUT...! It's JANTO!! And though I don't really have anything against Lisa, I DO dislike Gwen, so... *shrugs and grins*

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

Ianto Jones hated weddings... he... was gradually inching away from another hopeful young thing... when a distinctively dirty laugh from halfway across the room caught his attention.

Ianto never really noticed other men but it was hard to ignore this one. If his height and the confident swagger in his shoulders didn't set him apart, the American accent did. He was handsome... no doubt, but it was his eyes that Ianto noticed the most. Even from where he was standing, Ianto could see how startlingly blue they were.

And suddenly those blue eyes met his and it was all Ianto could do not to drop his drink and avert his gaze... Even though he was deeply embarrassed... tipped his glass in the other man’s direction and... allowed himself a smile of quiet satisfaction when he felt the American’s gaze bore into the back of his head.

Now if he could only stop his heart from pounding like a jackhammer. Fuck.

Comment or Excerpt from fic: Another jealous!Jack fic! ^___^ There's just something I find very endearing and humorous about it, especially since Jack's so adamant that he's beyond such 21st Century feelings... *chuckles*

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

“What’re you up to tonight, Ianto?” Jack asked lazily...

“Actually, I ran into a few friends form school who’ve invited me for a drink.” Ianto smiled and Jack promptly sat up, a slightly accusing look in his eyes... and... a childish pout... “You can come you know...” Ianto said gently...

“No, I don’t want to impose on anything.” He smiled as he shook his head gently...

“Well… If you’re sure... It’s a shame though, I think Anna was dying to meet you.”

“Anna?” Jack’s eyes had narrowed again and Ianto smothered a laugh. He’d never seen Jack so jealous...

“Yes, Anna. We dated for a while when I was seventeen.” Ianto smiled politely and got up, heading out of the door. Jack waited until he was gone before he growled in slight disapproval. Little did he know that Ianto had heard it in managed to smother another bout of laughter.

Comment or Excerpt from fic: Well, nothing more amusing than a jealous and possessive Jack and I do so love watching him stumble! XD

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

The thing about working for Torchwood was that there was not the time to take a couple of weeks out to reconnect with your team, make them understand why you left them, or get them to believe you weren’t leaving them again.

You would be lucky to even have time to think about taking your favourite of them on the date you had spent the last six months hanging from a set of shackles and fantasising about (however lacklustre it had sounded when you actually had chance to propose the idea).

Aliens looking to mess with the Earth’s infrastructure had no respect for romance, it seemed to Jack.

Jack was not entirely correct.

Comment or Excerpt from fic: It greatly amuses me to see Jack get jealous and possessive where Ianto is concerned! And it just as easily pisses me off when he flirts with everyone and goes behind Ianto's back and sleeps with others, but doesn't like it when Ianto flirts with others. *siiigh* Sometimes I just wish Ianto would just bitch-punch Jack into oblivion...

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

It had all started so innocently. Both of them had noticed the ladies looking. Ianto said they were looking at Jack, but Jack knew better... Still, they had enjoyed the attention... joked about it... But Jack had never dreamed that Ianto would take him up on his dare... He watched in disbelief as three of the women surrounded Ianto... and started slathering him with tanning oil... Jack hadn’t believed he had a jealous bone in his body, but he’d been wrong. Watching Ianto being touched and fawned over by those silly girls, Jack felt himself getting... Angry. He was jealous, and he was doubly pissed off about it. When he saw one girl... press herself against Ianto’s back, Jack almost lost it... Ianto... saw Jack get up from their blanket and start towards him, stomping... angrily...

Jack’s eyes narrowed as he picked up the pace... Ianto... looked up at... Jack... looming disapprovingly over him. Fuck. Jack was really pissed off; he hadn’t expected that. And Ianto... knew it was time to go.

Comment or Excerpt from fic: Well, I think that the title of the fic is self-explanatory... *cheeky grin* It's hilarious seeing Jack affected by the green-eyed monster... Some situations are angsty and sad while others are fluffy and humorous.

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

It isn’t just because he brought the materials that had brought down Torchwood One to Torchwood Three, it is because Ianto continues to mourn over a woman who had died nearly a year before. Jack wants that fierce loyalty for himself and he desperately misses the nights full of Ianto trapped beneath him, feeling Ianto’s heartbeat slow against his cheek.

... Jack snarls... unfinished. Jack doesn’t want to... let his fucking weak-kneed crush on Ianto leak out.

...

Now this is really quite pathetic, Harkness. Jack scolds himself.

... Jack’s mouth goes dry when Ianto’s hand slides erotically over...

Jealous of the bloody coffee machine.

Genre: Romance, Slight Angst
Rating: PG-13
Summary: what happened after that dance? And after that? SPOILERS for 2x09!
Status: Complete
Length: Oneshot
Warnings: None
Comment or Excerpt from fic: Because protective and friendly Owen is always a plus for me, especially when he's protective of Ianto. :) (And I also love fics that take place after/during that scene gar!)
_____________________________________
As Ianto takes Jack’s hand and moves into his arms, it becomes quite obvious Jack’s mind – and heart – aren’t really into it. Were he anyone else he probably wouldn’t have noticed in the first place, but he’s danced with Jack before and this right here isn’t dancing *with* Jack. Because Jack has a way of making you feel special, cherished, like you’re the only one that matters when you’re in his arms – or at least that’s how it felt to Ianto last time – and at this very moment Ianto feels anything but.

It doesn’t take a genius to figure out what – and who – Jack is thinking about. That, in turn, makes Ianto dwell on a subject he usually avoids contemplating, because he may have come into this relationship with his eyes wide open he hadn’t quite thought he would up against *this*.

Status: Work In Progress
Length: 24 Chapters so far
Warnings: None really
Comment or Excerpt from fic: So during a weevil-hunt with Ianto, Jack loses his memory. I really like how Jack is described as very innocent-looking and child-like. :P Though he's still a pervert who likes to feel up people, but I love it how he's so innocent while doing it and acting like a kid who just has to touch everything. Few grammar mistakes here and there but it doesn't take out how enjoyable it is.
__________________________________

Jack didn’t know what to do. He sat quietly. Ianto had asked him very nicely, not like Owen who had shouted at him. Jack wanted to behave; he wondered if they really liked him, all these people that knew him. All they seemed to do was shout at each other. It scared him, especially since they didn’t seem to know what they wanted to do with him,

He moved the chair, turning to the desk. Glancing over his shoulder he saw the four of them involved in an argument. So carefully, he put up a hand and put his finger against one of the pieces of paper on his desk. He moved it to one side, taking it out of the folder and he looked down at it. There was a symbol on the top and then a huge amount of black scrawls. Jack looked at them, he didn’t understand them. It was his room, his office, where he worked and he didn’t understand a single thing around him.

__________________________
“Thanks Ianto. You’re incredible.” Jack grinned, casually resting his hands over what he’d written.

“I’ve been told that a few times sir.” Ianto winked, turning on his heel to leave the Captain to his work.

“Ianto?” Jack suddenly found himself call out, startling himself when he did.

“Yes sir?”

“I love you.” Jack said bluntly, his eyes fixed on Ianto’s.

“I know you do.” Ianto blushed. “And the feeling’s mutual.”

Summary: Set after S1 (and hence spoilers for S1 and AU for season 2), the team survive by the skin of their teeth. But something inexplicable has happened between Owen and Ianto, and when Jack returns, he has to reassert himself as the alpha male.
Status: Incomplete, but recently updated
Length: 4 chapters so far
Warnings: None that I can think of. Slight violence.
Comment or Excerpt from fic: This is a beautiful, beautiful story. There is, I'll admit, a lot of focus on Owen and Ianto's friendship, and Jack doesn't come back til the second part, but then it explores the effects of Jack leaving - and returning - on Ianto (and they're very in love and it's beautiful). It also explores the team dynamic in a really interesting way. Poor, sweet Ianto! It's a different take on the Jack!returning fic; it doesn't rely on the usual plot devices. Ianto is strong but recovering from physical trauma and the team takes care of him and it's incredibly sweet and a bit heartbreaking in the best way.

Excerpt: “What Owen is trying to say is that you treated all of us like shit running off with the Doctor like that,” added Gwen, her voice low and furious. “And if you don’t take Ianto and adore him, and make this up to him after all he’s been through, then I’ll rip your bloody arms off.”
