Comment or excerpt from fic: The first chapter of this story was posted way back in November last year, with four chapters posted up to December. The fifth chapter was posted a few days ago. As a more recent convert to the lovely that is Janto, I hadn't read the previous chapters so came to it completely new. This is a beautifully written, almost poetic, coda to the episode Small Worlds. Normally I wouldn't rec a wip, as I know how frustrating it can be to wait for the next chapter, but this one is just too good to wait. If you haven't yet read it, please do and then shower the author with the comments and plaudits she deserves :)

Link takes you to Chapter 5, where you'll find links to all previous parts.

Toshiko had wanted to keep the Cyber Conversion Unit for study; a request he had almost granted. A sudden, horrible image had occurred to him, a nightmare for a man who rarely slept. In his mind's eye, he had seen Ianto, sleeping in Lisa's steel cradle, like a man buried alive.
A purely fear-driven thought, and not a rational one -- not something Ianto would ever do.

(A boy's voice, so raw and young. And long ago. "The silver girl. I see her and she makes me feel so sad.")

Jack destroyed the conversion unit the next day.

First timer reccer, so hope I get this right :)

Rating: NC17
Summary: Post-Cyberwoman,
Status: Complete/Oneshot
Length: One Chapter, 6300 words
Warnings: coercion (but not non-con), Spoilers for Cyberwoman
Comment or excerpt from fic: I can't believe this hasn't already been recc'd. It's one of the best post-Cyberwoman fics I've read and one of the very few that manages to make the idea of Ianto sleeping with Jack in the aftermath of Lisa's death actually plausible. Beautifully written.

Jack leads him down the stairs, to the left, and down again to the communal bathroom. Here, it occurs to Ianto, is a good place for an execution. Jack won't want to make any more of a mess for them to clean.

Yet Jack doesn't tell him to face the wall. Not precisely.

"Take your clothes off."
