Comment or Excerpt from fic: This is Post CoE, and my personal canon of what happened because hellooo, Ianto is alive and there's accidental time travel! Heartbreaking in the best possible way, and there's also a happy ending after all the angst. *teary eyes*

Comment or Excerpt from fic: This is a brilliant fic that is recc'd at

longliveianto where I first found it, and I thought it should go here, as it gives us so much hope after the disaster that was the-series-that-shall-not-be-named. This is another fic that could be classed as canon if people wanted it to, in the words of the Doctor "Time can be rewritten."

Excerpt:

The man who shouldn’t be looked up through eyes that were nearly swollen shut at the man who wasn’t a man, smiled a smile that could only be described as ‘terrifying’ and shouted, “Doctor! What brings you here? No, wait let me guess. Um - Daleks? No, no we got all of those. Cybermen? No, the last of those died when we killed Y-Ianto’s girlfriend.” The Doctor could hear the slight stutter even through the slurring and wondered what had happened before Jack went on. “No, no, no! I’ve got it! The 456, are they back? Do you want to know how I did it? Or did someone tell you what I did and you’ve come to put me down?” The Doctor flinched.

At this last, the Doctor saw Jack’s eyes light up with a kind of horrifying hope. The Doctor realized that Jack was in worse shape than he thought if he believed for an instant that the Time Lord would actually kill him.

This is one awesome story, read this if you love stories where Ianto lives :D

Title: Silent Running in Deep Waters
Author: choccy_grl
Genre: AU, Romance, WW2, Action, Drama
Rating: PG - NC17
Summary: Disgraced American pilot Captain Jack Harkness starts again in a new country and a new service but will a young sonar operator make things easier or harder for Jack?
Status: Complete
Length: 15 Chapters + Prologue and Epilogue (38,315 Words)
Warnings: Brief mention of Jack/OFC (and suggested Jack/OFC/OMC) and Ianto/Lisa
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’.

There's also a PDF version of this story if you would prefer it: Here.

Title: Guard Them, and Him Within
Author:

etharei
Rating: NC-17
Genre: Angst, Drama, Mystery, Time Travel
Warnings: ANGST, Violence
Status: Complete
Length: 38,000
Summary: Ianto Jones finds himself far from home. But there are guns, aliens, and more Strange Happenings than one can shake a stick at, so sometimes it’s like he hasn’t left. Of stories within stories, and the adventures of small characters.
Commentary: Ianto is transported 1,000 years into the future, where Jack is the Captain of a military base no one wants. I won't spoil you, but I have to say, for a fic written before CoE, it speaks to one of fandom's current big fears; the earlier chapters might be hard to read for this reason, but if you stick it out, you'll find it well worth the effort.

Title: And Indeed There Will Be Time
Author:

kaydeefalls
Genre: Adventure, Drama, Mystery
Rating: R
Summary: In 1919, Harriet Derbyshire was killed while investigating the disappearance of Torchwood Four in Dublin. In 2009, UNIT pulls a dying man out of the Irish Sea with a one-word message: Torchwood. Martha joins up with Jack's team in Cardiff to track down the errant branch of the organization – before a time-traveling race of aliens can change the course of history as we know it.
Status: Complete
Length: 43,000 words
Warnings: None
Comment or Excerpt from fic: This is an amazing story. The plot is a wonderfully twisty time-travel mystery, with aliens and paradoxes and cross-time clues. All the characters are really well-done, and especially Martha and Mickey get a chance to shine. The author does a really good job guiding the reader through the complex plot and has also created some truly spectacular original characters. It's also a marvelous Jack/Ianto story, showing their relationship as strong and trusting. One of the best all-around pieces of Torchwood fan fiction I've read.

Title: Random Shoes (The Four Day Jones Remix)
Author:

marginaliana
Pairing: Ianto/Eugene/Martha
Rating: NC-17
Status: Complete
Length: Oneshot
Word Count: ~15,000
Warnings: explicit sex – het, slash, and other; character deaths (but you should know who's dead already)
Spoilers: Set post Exit Wounds
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: So another fic based on what happens after Jack comes back from his trip with the Doctor post-TW 1x13. It's only in the first chapter, but we're promised 15 chapters... well, 17 if you count the two two-parter chapters separately... Anyway, Jack gets a shock, I'm sure, but I'm hoping for a jealous! and possessive!Jack in this fic. ^^ Regardless, I'm eagerly waiting for the updates!

Comment or Excerpt from fic: Sequel to Just Like a Man immediately following from the two-parter interlude Dizzy. I was right! Angst-central, here we come! So, based on TW 2x01 "KKBB," but not exactly the same. John is darker and the fic is angstier than canon, but the fic takes us behind-the-scenes through Janto's relationship and how it's being rebuilt (slowly...), so... *shrugs and grins*

Comment or Excerpt from fic: Sequel to Danger Zone. Okay, so I thought Danger Zone was angst-central, but it's got nothing on this! So, John's gone, but leaves behind one team member hurt and on the verge of dying, and it's not who you think! This fic isn't as action-oriented as the last, but it's all emotional and angsty and just makes me cry! *sniffles*

You know, I should've known that there will always be something more angsty than what's already been written... =___=;; So, rather than comparing fics on the angst scale, I'll just say that this is one of the most ANGSTY and HEARTBREAKINGLY PAINFUL pieces I've EVER read and...!

Summary: Ianto and Owen find themselves a long way from home and Jack needs to get them back.
Status: COMPLETE
Length: Multi-chapter / 17 TOTAL
Word Count: ~ 34,440
Warnings: Violence, Het.
Comment or Excerpt from fic: This is a fic in which Ianto and Owen get accidentally sent to the 51st Century and so starts their journey to get back home. It also gives a possible reason for Jack's memory-wipe while in Time Agency. It's filled with Time Agency, time-travel, paradoxes, time-lines, and just one HECK of an exciting adventure! This fic has so many surprises along the way that it even made me go "WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT?!" every once in a while!

Most enjoyable! ^^

EXCERPT:

Both men looked up as they heard something beeping quite loud.

"What's that?"...

"It's Jack's thing," Owen pointed to Jack's discarded wrist strap laying on his desk. "What's it doing?"

"How should I know? I should go and get Jack."

"No don't be stupid... We're Torchwood, we handle allsorts of technology..."

"Owen, that's not Torchwood property, it's Jacks... respect his privacy and don't touch his things," exclaimed Ianto... He... must have been thinking for longer than he realised as Owen was already at the desk with Jack's device in hand

"Owen, no!" Ianto lunged... and then almost instantly, with a flash of white light, the two men disappeared.

Title: Coffee Confessions
Summary: The progression of Jack and Ianto's relationship from anger to lust, and finally to something more.
Word Count: ~ 23,968 / 14 TOTAL
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! ^______^

Comment or Excerpt from fic: These are TW S2 gap stories using BBC's Captain's Blog, very much similar the the S1 ones named "Coffee Confessions" recced HERE. It starts with Post-KKBB and goes from there!

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

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.

Of course, first you'll have get through roughly two chapters of heartbreak (so far... I WANT JANTO TO HAVE ANOTHER BABY THROUGH JACK/WILL, TOO!! *bawls*), so here's hoping for good news from that front as the story progresses! So, Janto trying to get Jack pregnant and failing, a person from future TW3 comes to present TW3 via the rift, an enemy of future person (and future TW) follows said future person and starts killing people in the present...

And how unsurprising is it that one of Jack's former exes works in TW 4? *snorts in amusement*

Comment or Excerpt from fic: This is one of the most gorgeously written Janto fic series I've ever read... AM reading (since it's a WIP at the moment)! Starting off pre-series, it's got mystery and it's so intriguing and it's roped me in hook, line, and sinker!! There's an underlying plot that has been introduced, but hasn't yet been expanded on (yet) and it looks bigger than anything we could imagine as of yet... *twitches in excitement* And the characterization is just... GUH!! For now, this fic accentuates the relationship between Jack and Ianto, and it's wonderfully crafted... I can hardly wait for the rest!! ^^

Title: Kindom of Air
Author: lookninjas
Genre: Action/Drama/Angst/Crossover
Rating: R-rated
Summary: It begins, as so many stories do, with the ringing of a telephone.
Status: Complete
Length: Prologue+6 Chapters, ~38000
Warnings: Violence, Spoilers
Comment or Excerpt from fic: This is more of a general fic but I HAD TO REC IT! This is an EXCELLENT Ianto-taking-charge fic and he kicks so much ass in this one. This one is kinda a crossover with Doctor Who since there are spoilers for a few of the episodes. :3 (Besides, there's Jack/Ianto in some scenes so yea~!) The story is very intriguing, and I like how the team bonded and how Ianto took control of the situation. The fic takes place when the team goes to the Himalayas.

Comment or Excerpt from fic: Hah~!

tanarian needs to write more fics of this universe! The stories that have been written are:

Breakfast At Rimini's
A chance meeting between Ianto and Andy sows the seeds for a future friendship. First of all, however, they have to find something they both have in common!

Amateur
Short piece of introspection from Ianto about what power entails.

The Road to Hell
The immediate aftermath of the episode 'Cyberwoman'.

Conversation, with Postcards
Jack wants to make sure that Ianto will hold to his word. Finding out a bit more about the self-destruct Ianto has apparently installed in the Hub wouldn't go amiss, either!

The Looks On Your Faces
A little bit of introspection on Ianto's part.

Legacy of Blood
Ianto receives a visit from his sister and an eavesdropping Jack discovers that Ianto has one last big secret he has been keeping from everyone.

Once More With Feeling
Set just after Countrycide. Jack returns to the Hub to find that Ianto has disappeared and he panics, following him back to his house to make sure he is all right.

Get Back On The Horse That Bit You
Ianto is still having trouble coping with the extremes of emotion he feels when he's around Jack.

If You Had a TARDIS....
Jack turns the tables on Gwen by giving the team a question to ponder on while eating lunch.

Tag Game
Myfanwy, Ianto, a game of tag and some Weevils gatecrashing. Jack, Tosh and Gwen get more than they bargained for when they do a little surveillance on Ianto.

Strategies of Seduction
Ianto thinks Jack has retconned him and he's after a particularly unique form of revenge.

Glints and Glimmers
Follow-on from Greeks Bearing Gifts. Ianto tries to cheer Tosh up and Jack gets yet another small piece of the puzzle that is Ianto Jones.

Silver Service
Jack decides to use Ianto's abilities and send him undercover to check out a possible alien operation.

Concussion Wave
Sometimes memories of Canary Wharf ambush Ianto.

Intertwined
The trouble with Jack having such a complicated timeline is that he often turns up somewhere he shouldn't be, and by doing so puts a great deal of temptation in Ianto's way.

Current Affairs
Gwen gets a small peek into the way things are between Ianto and Jack now.

Rain Against the Window
Ianto comes home, in more ways than one.

Comment or Excerpt from fic: Well, I'm a sucker for 'Ianto travels with the Doctor' fics and this one really met and exceeded my expectations. ^_^ Very, very good fic! (And extra browny points because of Ianto meeting younger Jack :D) The link goes to the last chapter because the other chapters are linked there.
Excerpt:
_______________________________

“It's all a bit muddled at the moment, you'll have to forgive me. But still... Who are you? How did you get in here? Are you travelling with me?”

“You landed your ship in my garden,” Ianto pointed out.

“I did? Really? I'm sure that's not where I wanted to go. Or did I? Anyway, that's easily remedied!” He started fiddling with the innumerable buttons on the console, dancing around it like a mad and slightly drunk pixie.

“Now, please wait just a moment -” Ianto started to say, but the teen didn't even seem to hear him.
