Title: If Not Wisely
Author: [livejournal.com profile] liadan14
Genre: Angst
Rating: NC-17
Summary: Ianto keeps count. He hardly knows why--it's not like it matters, it's not like Jack cares, it's not like he wouldn't sound like a creepy stalker if he were to say something like, "I remember our seventeenth kiss. It was in the archives."

Comment or Excerpt from fic: This story snuck up on me. I started reading it and certainly thought it was good, but as the story unfolded I found myself absolutely drawn in and held fast. It's beautifully written, showing Ianto as the more-than-slightly screwed up person he is without taking him out of character. The build-up to the end was very well-done, and the end itself was a perfect grace note to a wonderful story.

EXCERPT:

Dee Laytner-MacLean looked out the window of the St. David’s Hotel, gazing out at Cardiff Bay, wondering once again how he got talked into this vacation.

What the hell am I doing in the UK again for a vacation? Dee thought.

He remembered their vacation to England, long ago... Now two years later... Dee balked when the UK came up again... and... As Dee lay in the bed... he cursed that he still could not shake the feeling of something about to go horribly wrong.

Comment or Excerpt from fic: WHOA! The title shoulda given it away, but I was quite ignorant and it made me go, "HOLY SHIT! O_____O" So, Ianto becomes a victim of the rift and upon his return, he seems more normal than any of the previously known victims. But this normalcy hides a secret that is uncovered when Gwen is hurt and now Ianto is as abnormal as they come.

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

When Ianto Jones fell through the Rift during a negative spike in activity, Captain Jack Harkness knew he had to get him back. Not because he was his lover, but because he didn’t want him to end up lost forever among the stars. He had to find a way to get him back before it was too late. No one deserved that fate.

But without a trail to follow, finding him was near to impossible. Three months passed without a lead to go on, and the team lost hope. Jack, forever the optimist, kept Ianto’s coffee mug and personnel information in the computer as an active member, even though he knew if Ianto came back after that long he probably wouldn’t be the same.

Comment or Excerpt from fic: Aah, any fic dealing with "Adrift" makes me bawl like a baby and this fic is no different. It's angsty, it's emotional, but Ianto's conviction and protective urges, especially towards Jack, always leaves me in awe and makes me squee and huggle him tightly!

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

Ianto knew... that was the choice they all faced; doing what was right, or what was easy... Jack had faced that same dilemma himself several times; in fact, he faced it every day...

“Where does it end?” he croaked...

“It never ends,” he said quietly. “... but we have to get through it... We just keep doing what we do... It never ends,” he murmured. “But it doesn’t have to be faced alone. There’s always something, or someone, there to help everyone through this – a loyal soldier...”

And that was what he would be to Jack; a loyal soldier. The turmoil that the older man faced would never end, but the loneliness he was feeling…

Ianto’s eyes hardened in determination as he whispered in Jack’s ear: “It ends tonight.”

Comment or Excerpt from fic: This is a brilliantly written fic that begins with a little back-story of how Flat Holm came to be, but mostly follows Ianto and how he came to know about it and all the way through Adrift when Gwen finds-out it and the aftermath. I LOVE how the fic flows, especially with time-skips it has. Very beautiful and emotional.

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

He’d told him about Flat Holm after the cannibals. Suzie had known... had helped him to organize it all. The idea was Jack’s... but Suzie ran the rest... Then she was gone... It was a lot of work... more than it looked like, and he was used to having help... he considered his options. He could tell no one... But that wasn’t really in the realm of possibility, because he knew they were nearing the time when a suitable version of the Doctor might show up, and if he kept it to himself there was no one to take care of the victims at Flat Holm. That and the more selfish, pressing reason: Jack couldn’t do it alone... he could not handle going to see the victims on his own...

Option two, tell... Ianto. Ianto, both youngest and oldest... betrayer and betrayed, wise and yet so young... Jack... wondered what the hell he was supposed to do, when a... voice... said, “Jack? What’re you doing?”

“I need your help, Ianto.”

Comment or Excerpt from fic: Okay, so this fic DOES get slightly angsty at the end (probably only because all of us know what happens next, but it's mostly fluffy! Though this is set pre-Fragments, and it IS "pre"... well, kind of... This is set the morning OF "Fragments" and leads into the episode until the first bomb blast in the building. It's the author's take on Jack's last thought before the bomb goes "KABOOOOM!"

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

Jack was roused by the sound of bells in his ear. He vaguely recognized the annoying noise as Ianto’s alarm clock screaming at them to wake up. Ianto muttered obscenities under his breath before pulling a hand reluctantly from under the covers and slapped it down on the snooze button causing Jack to smile into his lover’s skin as he listened to Ianto’s grumbling about mornings.

...

He couldn’t think of anywhere he wanted to be more. The mundaneness of the mornings- getting up together, getting dressed, having breakfast together; they were things Jack cherished because of the chaotic way they all lived their lives. Anything that seemed normal and boring in the eyes of everyone else Jack lived to the fullest. Even if it meant spending 15 extra minutes in bed listening to his lover shower for the day.

Comment or Excerpt from fic: MPREG!! YAY!! ANOTHER ONE!! ^______________^ We can never have too many mpreg fics in this comm., me thinks! The only difference... it's not the USUAL person that's pregnant! *grins*

Okay, spoilers aside... TW team gets a phone call from the hospital stating that men are being hospitalized with the same symptoms and the Doctors can't seem to find-out what's going on. When Owen and Gwen go to investigate, they find that not only are all the hospitalized men in homosexual relationship, they are also pregnant with the fetus growing at an alarming rate. While TW team tries to find the reason behind this phenomenon, Jack realizes that Ianto has also been acting strangely - very energetic in the morning, but becoming very tired as the day progresses, extreme neatness (more anal than usual)... Is Ianto's condition related to the mysterious case of the pregnant men or is it something totally different?

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

It had been quiet today, not one movement from the rift and they all felt the peace that washed over the Torchwood facility. There had been no rush or fear, just a rare comforting silence they all enjoyed...

...

“Jack, we have received a phone call from the hospital and it seems seven men have been hospitalized with the same symptoms. Doctors can’t work out what it is. So, Owen and I were going to check out it.”

Jack nodded shortly... “Yeah, you do that. Keep us up to date with what’s going on,” he replied, eying the woman slightly. “It could be nothing, just a virus or something.”...

Ianto... moved swiftly towards the door again, maybe he could be a help to Owen and Gwen, give them information.

Comment or Excerpt from fic: Ya know, I thought I recced this before, but apparently not...

Anyway, this is an angsty, Ianto-centric fic. Everytime I read something like it, my heart always goes out to Ianto... Maybe it's just me being naïve because I believe in monogamy and if I was in Jack's situation, I'd just hold onto that ONE person for as long as I can, but even if I can see the reasoning behind it from Jack's POV, I guess it just pisses me off that Jack doesn't try harder to find-out what's wrong with Ianto. And in this sense, I like Owen when he gets worried about Ianto and sees something that the others, especially Jack, doesn't see.

The author didn't give a "character death" warning, so I'm hoping and keeping my fingers crossed, hoping that that doesn't change with the progression of the fic (though there are more ways to die than that of a physical death)...

I'm very eager to see where this goes in five chapters... well, three left now, so...

Comment or Excerpt from fic: This is the author's take on the back-stage happenings of Jack and Ianto's relationship. I absolutely LOVE this story because like many of you, I very much dislike the fact that much of Janto relationship happens off-screen. They show it in fast-forward; a kiss under the pretense of CPR, then *BHAM!* proposition for sex, then *BHAM!*, then an actual kiss, then *BHAM!* date, etc. I mean, I can understand that they can't show everything because of time constraints and whatnot, but that doesn't stop me from being annoyed. Anyway, this is all that in slow-motion. The slow burn of heat and anticipation is enough to drive anyone crazy! But I love it, anyway! ^______^

Jack was back.

He’d barely had time to think about what that meant, let alone how he felt considering everything that had happened. The damned blowfish taunting him, his hands shaking so badly he wouldn’t have hit the wall with his bullet, much less the alien. Captain John Hart and his bloody diamond. God, the goose chase alone was enough to frustrate Ianto, but the attacks on the team. His team, his friends. Ianto drew in a deep breath to try and calm his rising anger.

Jack was back.

And Ianto hadn’t a clue what that meant yet.

Comment or Excerpt from fic: OH...! This is such an angsty fic.

I was crying my eyes-out from the very beginning and the author wasn't sure about the ending either (happy/sad), so read at your risk.

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

It wasn't often that Jack blamed the Rift for things. He knew it wasn't sentient, so it therefore didn't do what it did out of malice. And yet, right at that moment. As Jack was hanging off the end of a pier in the dark night air, his hand gripping the hand of his lover with a heart stopping urgency. Jack would have sworn on his own immortality that the Rift was out to ruin his life completely.

Fifteen years, or 2015 of celibacy depending on your point of view, but Ianto deserved Jack making a least that small of a sacrifice. Ianto burned for the world, Jack could suffer a too-cold bed.

Loved how the author wrote the Jack/Gwen (not as a couple) conversation, it seemed very in-tune and not hurried at all, very in character, and how Gwen seems desperate to be the center of Jack's universe and the one he confides on while Jack is thinking of Ianto. weee~!
~_~_~_ ~_~__~_~_~_~_~_~_~
He sighed exasperatedly, shaking his head, “Look, Gwen; y’ found out about it, you know what’s there, you took Jonah Bevan’s mother there…All against my wishes, I might add. What more do you-“

“No,” she enunciated clearly, the force of the word making Jack meet her eyes, “That’s not what I asked, Jack. Why didn’t you tell me about Flat Holm?”

He scoffed, his lips curling into a disbelieving smile, “I told you; I didn’t want you going there. It’s my concern, my duty…Nobody else needs to-“
