Comment or Excerpt from fic: WHOA! What a way to start a fic... BANG! The remaining TW team's on a mission when UNIT comes with guns blazing (and sticks up their rears) to ruin everything! But it is oh so amusing to see Jack rip a new into the UNIT commander, though! *glee* It sounds like James Bond, Torchwood style, so if all the violence, swearing, and sex that's being promised isn't incentive enough, then Jack and Ianto in tuxes should be! *drools*

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

The large doors blasted open, lights shone like a thousand suns and a terrible noise like a screaming banshee bore down on them. Gwen swore and threw herself backwards through the door as men in black uniforms rushed the area... A helicopter landed, cars drove up, and someone spoke in a bull horn. Somewhere, in her ear, Jack swore loud and colorfully... The aliens reached into the boxes and hauled out very big, very powerful guns. Gwen, realizing what was about to happen, threw herself onto the ground and curled into a small a ball as possible. The aliens fired. The weapons didn’t help. Sub machine guns rat-tat-tatted and gunned the aliens down instantly. Some of the bullets ripped through the door and hit the wall around Gwen. She shrieked, and in her ear both Ianto and Jack roared.

Everything went very quiet, save for the rotor blades of the helicopter...

~*~*~*~*~

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.

EXCERPT:

In his office Jack looked up wondering were both Ianto and his coffee were. Setting his pen down, he hit his comm. link and whined playfully, “Iiiiiaaaantoooo, Where are you? Where’s my coffee?”

There was no reply.

Jack called again this time sounding vaguely pathetic

“I’m a little preoccupied, Sir. I’ll be with you in a moment,” soothed Ianto the soft voice going someway to calm Jack down.

But Jack being Jack wasn’t satisfied. Leaning back in his chair he asked petulantly, “What’s more important than sharing a coffee with me?”… Pushing himself up and out of his chair, he wandered across to the door and pulled it open. He froze, staring in disbelief at the sight that greeted him.

Comment or Excerpt from fic: Sequel to Magic Hands. Talk about sensory overload. Not only does Ianto get his wish, but so does Jack.

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

Jack slowly raised his eyes and holding Ianto’s gaze, he asked softly, “Is this what you want?”

Ianto didn’t answer. He didn’t dare trust his voice. He’d wanted this for so long, had wanted to feel something other than pure raw sex. Ianto knew he would never willingly admit that what he longed for was the softer things, the simple things such as cuddling and snuggling. He knew he’d never ask for it, not now and certainly not from Jack. He’d made that mistake once before... only to be laughed at... ridiculed for wanting such... things. So he stayed quiet, his body tense... He was standing still as if afraid that one movement would ruin the moment.

“Ianto,” breathed Jack, “Answer me. Is this what you really want from me?”

Ianto nodded, almost sadly as if expecting the spell to be broken.

To his surprise Jack smiled – a soft warm smile that lit up the older man’s eyes…

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

The computer beeped and a screen popped up. Tosh tapped a few keys and a series of diagnostics started running. She frowned at the readings. She lifted her phone and dialed upstairs... “Ianto, it’s Tosh. Is everything all right up there?”... Tosh tapped more keys... The same results... “You haven’t had any trouble at all?”

“None. What’s going on?” Ianto asked...

Tosh didn’t have a chance to finish explaining. A large boom cut her off and caused her to drop the phone to cover her throbbing ears... the ground shook beneath her chair and the lights crackled, then shut off... When the world stilled, the Hub alarm was blaring. Tosh quickly... plugged into the main system... When Gwen and Owen arrived she was typing wildly, “What the hell was that?” Owen demanded.

Tosh... turned to them slowly, a tear sliding down her cheek. “The Tourist Center. It just exploded...

Comment or Excerpt from fic: Oh Ria's got another fic cooking! ^___^ So, post-"Exit Wounds" and John's joined the team along with another character (OC). But after a field mission gone bad, Jack realizes that there is no other choice but to hire a medic, in turn replacing Owen's place at Torchwood. But just when they are getting back on track, things turn from bad to worse for Ianto when more than one tragedy hits his family and his carefully built, fragile walls crumble around him.

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

Jack shook his head as he watched Gwen and John supporting Ianto into the autopsy bay. From what he had gathered, while he had gone out to... capture a rogue Weevil... Ianto and Gwen had been called out to answer a call... It had sounded like a relatively simple job... A simple clean-up operation. Unfortunately, the intelligence they had received had not been entirely accurate... and... one Blowfish had quickly become five, two of which were severely intoxicated... and, just to make things even better, they had been taking hostages.

Luckily, John had been at the Hub on standby and had been able to get to them fairly quickly once had had learned the gravity of the situation... but... If those aliens had killed anyone...if they had hurt Ianto any more than he already was...just the thought made Jack shudder in anger. But... what the incident had also done was bring home an important truth - something that Jack knew he had been putting off for far too long.

Comment or Excerpt from fic: I'm seriously looking forward to read this fic cuz what could be better than TORCHWOOD IN VE~GAS, BABY!!! XD *pumps fist in the air* One craziness meets a craziness on an entirely new level, so insanity galore!

Starts off with Martha calling Torchwood about an unsolved case that'll take our TW team to Vegas. But even before the official mission as a team can start, Jack disappears and this mission now becomes very personal. Be aware of the warnings as they apply from chapter two itself.

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

The world always waited for Jack... It was a melancholy thought but this was Torchwood... There simply were no happy endings... He... wondered how a small blue box could trigger such an existential train of thought. Looking at Jack, he had to bite his cheek... at the irony... Offense, he thought, sometimes was the best defense and tried to convince himself that he hadn’t just fled from Jack... However, Torchwood did a very good job hardening its employees: ignore or die. He ignored... and his hands shook so hard that Jack took the coffee from him...

“Deep breaths,” Jack was there, always so close... too close... just right, “we’ll be okay.” And... Ianto found himself in Jack’s arms clutching his shirt as though he were drowning... It wasn’t a revelation by any means. He had known, realized and thought he had made peace with the fact that part of his heart had been torn out, but Jack, still incredibly close and warm, had known all along: there would never be peace.

Comment or Excerpt from fic: All I wanna say is... "O.M.G. NOOOOOOOOO!!!" and bawl my eyes out! First chapter starts off with a PUNCH! Outta NOWHERE!

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

He muttered under his breath about... his colleagues... they knew he had plans for later. Thinking about those plans, however, soothed his ruffled feelings, bringing a smile to his face. His life had taken an unexpected turn, and it took him a while to come to grips with that – but now he was looking forward to the joys and challenges waiting for him... Ianto turned... almost running into his captain... and... felt a familiar flutter in his stomach and the quickening of his heart beat. The fact that he still reacted like this to Jack’s mere presence embarrassed him, and he glanced quickly away... and escaped the Hub to prepare... He was distracted, planning, worrying – and he didn’t notice Jack watching him leave. He didn’t notice Gwen walk up behind him, cross her arms and frown.

“You don’t deserve his love, Jack.”

“I know.”
