Title: 25 Things Ianto Has Done and Is Capable of Doing Again
Author: [livejournal.com profile] strangecreatureand [livejournal.com profile] shinodabear
Genre: Character Study
Rating: PG-13
Summary: The authors like to joke about their wildly differing views on Mr Ianto Jones. But if they were to both write up lists of '25 Things Ianto Has Done and is Capable of Doing Again', they probably wouldn't be very different at all.
Status: Complete
Length: Two Parts, A and B
Warnings: All standard Torchwood ones
Comment: Ianto has- and likely always will be- the unique status of being a man with a mysterious past. Just as often as we have speculated about Jack's background, we have speculated about Ianto's- if not more so. These two pieces are a good way to illustrate why that is- because although we might argee on a few broader points, very little else is nailed down.

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.

Title: Drug!Ianto 'Verse
Author:  [livejournal.com profile] skellerbvvt 
Genre:  angst, power struggle, dark, drama, humor
Rating:  NC-17
Summary: Ianto is the bait and the trap, Torchwood's last defense against the Time Lord threat
Status: Incomplete, Series
Warnings: Everything. No, really. Everything. See tags for more info.
Comment: There aren't really the words for how disturbed this fic is. No, really, there are none. The TARDIS is sociopathic. Jack is broken. The Master is manic. The Doctor is manic. And Ianto is the drug they're all addicted to. And yet- you can't look away. You can't help but laugh. And you're never sure which way this fic will go. The fic itself is as addicting as Ianto.

The first part is Trapped Inside With You. Proceed with caution.

Title: First Time for Everything
Author:  [livejournal.com profile] criccieth 
Genre:  backstory, angst, drama, ect
Rating:  NC-17
Summary: All relationships have their stages and their first moments
Status: Incomplete, looooong
Warnings: Sex, domestic abuse, suicide attempts
Comment: This isn't the sort of background I normally buy for Ianto, but the details and emotions are so vivid here that it's hard not to buy it. The story is shaping up to be complicated and full of interesting interactions between Jack and Ianto, some of which looks like it has/is going to involve a sort of time travel. Updates are long in coming, but seeing as the length of each section is ridiculous, I'm not going to complain too much.

Excerpt:
For two years Ianto has been doing his best to forget, to bury the memories. And now, if Harkness does turn out to want what Oliver wanted…It won’t be the same, he tells himself firmly. Won’t be trapped. Won’t be a prisoner this time. As soon as she’s better, we’ll leave. Slowly, his hands stop shaking. Lisa, he reminds himself. It’s for Lisa. Whatever it takes, remember? Doesn’t matter what it costs. You can handle it. It’s for her. But he feels so cold.

Title: Things Rank and Gross Possess It Merely
Author: [livejournal.com profile] garnettrees 
Summary: "'Tis an unweeded garden
That grows to seed. Things rank and gross in nature
Possess it merely."
-Hamlet, Act I, Scene II
Other Characters/Pairings: Tish's POV; some implied Gwen/Rhys and Owen/Diane
Warnings: Character death, implied rape, torture, unwanted groping
Status: WIP
Length: 2/5 parts posted
Commentary: Yes, I have a thing for fics which take place in the Year That Never Was. And this is an amazing example of what can be done with all the implied darkness that happened during that nonexistant period of time. Using Tish as the narrator works especially well here; we feel her suffering, both as Martha's sister and the person who was hired to stand there and look pretty. She also has the dubious position as one of the people who cleans up the Master's shit, which normally includes body parts. It's haunting and creepy, and written in an almost surreal style, which has the overall effect of making it very easy for the reader to feel just as sleep-deprived and hopeless as poor Tish.

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.

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.

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: 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: Oh this is one of THE most heartbreaking fics I've ever read! It's written in a totally different element, very fantasy-like and very different from any other fantasy~esque Torchwood fics I've ever read. Because of the topic, I was expecting the story to take place in dreamscape because of the fantasy feel, but I was proven wrong... by more than a mile and my heart just broke even more. Very heartwrenching piece where Jack and Ianto are forced apart by out-worldly circumstances.

... I probably just confused everyone with that comment, but... *sniffles**keeps a box of tissue on hand*

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

It’s a lonely planet. It’s five times the size of Earth, but there’s just one kingdom. The rest is landscapes... lush and beautiful... but it goes on forever, and lacks any true sense of life.

... Thunder rumbles... as Jack makes the journey... the storm showing signs of arriving earlier than predicted. Jack doesn’t care. It can rain a monsoon and he’ll stay out here, because he’s never been able to resist heartbreak.

The Garden is beyond the castle walls, a short walk... Jack uses it often, a place to think, surrounded by flowers and babbling brooks and the song of the bird. It’s a small slice of perfect paradise in an otherwise vastly desolate planet and it’s the Garden that makes Jack return to this dull little world every thousand years, because he’s weak and needy and still misses sections of his past when he wasn’t so alone... It’s all he can do, until the right hour when the universes connect for a brief moment in time.

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.

Comment or Excerpt from fic: Oh I have no words to say about this 'verse and do it justice! It's an absolutely wonderful series that weaves fantasy and reality so flawlessly together to produce this brilliance! *starry-eyed* It has something for everyone - a John-centric story ("A Very Private War") for fans of John or a story for PC Andy fans which is fully Andy-centric ("The Mermaid of Mermaid Quay") or if you're a Janto freak like me, then you can just read the whole thing! ^___~ *LOL* The fics are recced in chronological order in accordance to time line (ex.

Comment or Excerpt from fic: I gotta say, this is one fic in which I rooting for some John/Ianto pairing just because Ianto needs much loving and Jack's an asshole and both John and Ianto have been hurt by him!

EXCERPT:

"I'll touch it." He said... "It's just a box. Maybe it's a future genie lamp, have you thought of it? If we rub it three times like this," and he touched it, his finger right where he felt it could've been a button.

He didn’t have time to finish his sentence, though. Jack's eyes widened in terror as he saw Ianto's hands in contact with the dark metal artifact... A blue light took over the room, blinding both Jack and Gwen for a moment. When they were able to open their eyes again, there was one less person on the Hub.

... "Ianto!" yelled Jack... "That was a freaking transport device! It was activated by his touch!" Jack's voice was loud and desperate, but not as much as his eyes.

The captain's eyes were terrified... "We lost him. I lost Ianto." He murmured to himself.

EXCERPT:

Which wasn't to mean that he didn't love or was using Ianto because he couldn't be with Gwen. Oh no... Everything about Ianto undid him in ways that he hadn't felt in all his life; much like Gwen, he had a hold on him in a way that he couldn't explain...

No. He wasn't using Ianto. He truly did love him... he completed him in ways that Gwen couldn't... and it was more than sex. It was as though the two of them had their lassoes around his heart... yet he didn't feel torn. His heart belonged to both of them and whether they knew that or not was irrelevant. Even though Gwen was married, in some way, she belonged to him. In his heart, she was his and Ianto was his in all other ways that a lover could be. He had Gwen once, he had her for a brief, passion filled moment, but he had Ianto for the rest. He knew the man was up to the challenge. There wasn't a need for words - Jack knew how Ianto felt.

EXCERPT:

Ianto... could feel something cold settling in his stomach and he didn't like it.

Owen jumped off the side of the table and came round to look him squarely in the face. "Quick, Ianto, what happened last night?... Do you remember leaving the Hub?"

Now that Ianto focused on it, no he didn't... Why couldn't he remember driving home? He shook his head.

... "Shit." Owen said again, then launched himself toward the medical bay.

"Wait," Ianto said following him. "What's going on?"

"I have a fairly good guess." Owen called over his shoulder.

Ianto had a guess, too, but it didn't make any sense. "Retcon?..." That sense of dread was descending over him, like he was standing over a precipice... and was just about to realize how far a drop it was. "That's not possible..."

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

He was right.

Jack shut the door to Ianto’s flat at precisely 12.01 officially the next day. Padding across the dark flat, Jack felt awful. He felt as if he’d cheated on Ianto, which was stupid since he hadn’t. Not technically...

Jack felt exhausted - emotional women weren’t really his strong point but what made he feel even worse was the fact that Ianto had been so understanding. The way Ianto had been so reasonable about Jack disappearing so suddenly from his bed and then standing him up at both lunch and dinner. Jack sighed and leaning against the doorframe, stared into the bedroom... smiled slowly as he realised Ianto had very deliberately left Jack’s side of the bed clear... The fact Ianto was rolled so tightly in the cover and on the verge of falling off his side of the bed, showed to Jack far more than words could ever say.

Gone...

Jack could hear its hum, like a beacon. He was about to call out to the doctor and froze at the end of the hallway. Stunned, Jack watched the TARDIS fade until the last sight he saw was its blue police siren light twirling, twirling until even that was gone.

Admin Note: I have added a few tags, just so you know. Reccer tags have been added, as in if you post recs, you get a tag 'reccer: yourusername'. :D People do it with fic authors in other communities, so what the hell, reccers need our own tags too~! If you post a rec, I'll add your name to the tag list and in the TAG masterlist. (link is in the sidebar)

I wish more people would rec, since only 4 members have done it. *hint hint* Though it's just getting started xD  But enough about that! Now for the rec!

Comment or Excerpt from fic: This is a two-shot fic about Ianto in Torchwood, starting from Canary Wharf. Just read it. It's very good and deep and wonderful and I don't have enough words to tell you how much I liked it. And I really like fics that deal with Ianto's first time in Torchwood 3 and I have a weakness for Suzie!fics too. PLUS it has the Doctor~!
