Comment or Excerpt from fic: Very good AU that has nothing to do with Torchwood with a mortal Jack and Ianto in the second world war in a Royal Navy Submarine, you can imagine what happens lol. It's well written and has good pace, there's no rushing into things :). This is one of my favourite WW2 Jack/Ianto stories :D

Excerpt:

He shrugged on the coat that had been hanging over his arm - no-one would see it was an Air Force coat in the dark - and tugged the warm comforting material around him.  Sadly this would have to go into storage at his lodging house with most of the rest of his things; he’d miss the coat, it was almost like it was a part of him.  Taking one last glance at his new charge he turned and left the docks behind him.  He rounded the corner of one of the cargo units, head bowed against the wind; and impacted with something warm and solid.

 

Glancing up, he was just in time to see a figure step round him with a clear “Sorry, Sir” before the figure was swallowed up by the darkness out towards the harbour.  He’d barely seen the man, nothing really but shadow; yet still he was left with the lingering impression of blue grey eyes and a muttered ‘Like the coat’.

Title: Get Jones
Author: [personal profile] valderys
Pairing: Jack/Ianto
Rating: PG-13
Word Count: 5,342
Notes: AU for the Age of Steel Whoniverse, this is just one take on what other paths Ianto and Jack may have taken :)
Summary: JACK: Ianto Jones, born August 19th 1983. Able student but not exceptional, one minor conviction for shoplifting in your teens. But what if crime had suited Ianto?
Commentary: What if, indeed? This is an amazing, noir-esque story about a Ianto who manages to still be the loyal, stubborn, intelligent man we've all come to know and love, even as he steals from alt!Torchwood. His meeting with Jack (presumably not immortal and still a Time Agent) and subsequent moments are well-done and just plain fun to read.  
Excerpt: “What,” Ianto snarls, teeth grinding, “The bloody fuck do you think you’re doing?”

And the man laughs. “I’m robbing you, of course. What does it look like? Nice move, by the way.”

American accent. Ianto stares, not letting his arm waver, disbelief warring with fury. “And what makes you think I’m going to let that happen?”

“You’ve got no choice?”

Ianto cocks his head and raises an eyebrow. The man’s arm isn’t wavering either, and he’s pointing an old-fashioned handgun, a Webley, Ianto thinks, of all things, right at Ianto’s forehead. It crosses his mind that an old-fashioned gun like that might be slower than his own, although, probably, unfortunately, not slow enough.

“No chance,” he says, and knows it to be true. He doesn’t want to die in such a pointless encounter, but he will, if he has to. The goods are important enough for that.

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: *wibbles* Oh, this is SUCH a gorgeous, gorgeous fic! Absolutely beautiful!! I can't stop crying!

*bawls*

But for for once, though, they're tears of absolute joy! Razzle, this is such a marvelous piece of work! And especially after my last angsty rec, I needed to read something that reunites two hearts together through space and time! Very emotional and heartwarming! THANK YOU!! ^______________________________________^

*continues to sniffle happily*

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

Ianto Jones was a heavy sleeper. Notoriously so. He had hardly had a poor night’s sleep in his life. At least, that was before he moved to Cathedral Road.

The house was beautiful; classic Victorian Semi-detached, lovingly maintained in its period style. The fireplaces were all original and functioning. It had a pleasant, bijoux garden, spacious kitchen, and a ghost in the attic.

That hadn’t been mentioned in the Home Information Pack.

Comment or Excerpt from fic: I have a deep love for any fics that show the journey of a character through life, their growth both mentally and physically. And in Torchwood, the journey of Captain Jack Harkness in one of the more interesting subjects, especially because of his immortality. I can honestly say that when I read this fic, one of the first words in my mind was "Perfect." It's a wonderfully written piece!

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

Jack can still smell the deep scent of black leather wherever he goes.

It’s on him, it’s in him, and it doesn’t matter that he sometimes scrubs himself with so much force he bleeds, he can never get rid of it.

The smell wafts around him like a ghost. It’s a constant reminder of what he lost and it won’t stop haunting him... he’s still tormented by a battered leather jacket and Northern accent even as he dreams...

... but he’s found other reasons to value life, reasons that don’t always include a Time Lord and his blonde Companion, and it’s surprised him... In the still of the night Jack clings to Ianto... as Ianto continues to care for him, and nothing else seems to matter much anymore. Things have changed, people have changed, and Jack has another home now. It’s worlds away from the Blue Box but it’s his, and it just might be enough.
