Title: Let Me Kill You Sweetheart
Author:

blackbird_song
Rating: NC-17
Genre: Angst, romance, hurt/comfort
Status: Complete
Length: ~9000 words
Summary: Ianto gets a case of 'flu that forces him to explore the way that he interacts with life, all very much against his will.
Commentary: Oh, alien viruses, how strange can you get? The short answer is "very". The long answer... takes over 9,000 words to accurate describe.

This story is largely about Ianto's struggle to deal with the effects of the virus, but through his befuddled eyes we also get the story of Jack dealing with a virus which inevitably ends in tears.

Title: Following Orpheus

Summary: The end is where we start from.
Status: one shot

Warnings: Spoilers for Children of Earth
Comment or Excerpt from fic:

"He sits there for a moment, getting his breath back, and tries to figure out what is going on. He doesn’t know how he came to be here and he realises, with a frisson of panic, that he can’t remember his name.

He looks down at himself, hoping for clues, but there is nothing. A bit of self-examination reveals some pretty impressive bruising on his torso and what feels like a cut over his right cheekbone, but none of it triggers any memories. He can feel a few faint scars under his fingertips – one on his leg and another on his neck, just under his chin – but he can’t think of what could have caused them."

Why I've recced it? Because I just felt so good after reading it. It's just such a good look at how things could easily have played out in the 6+ months after Children of Earth

Title: If Not Wisely
Author:

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."
Status: Complete
Length: ~9,500 words in 3 parts
Warnings: None

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.

Rating: PG-13
Summary: Ianto and Tosh have been kidnapped. This is how they cope.
Warnings: Imprisonment
Commentary: There is something horrfyingly hilarious about his fic. On the one hand, there is nothing funny about being in a confined space for a long period of time. On the other hand, getting just a bit too comfotrable with your cellmate can be kind of funny. Jack's observations at the end are both touching and utterly Jack, and the punchline with have you laughing on the floor.

Title: Get Jones
Author:

valderys
Pairing: Jack/Ianto
Rating: PG-13
Word Count: 5,342
Notes: AU for the Age of Steel Whoniverse, this is just one take on what other paths Ianto and Jack may have taken :)
Summary: JACK: Ianto Jones, born August 19th 1983. Able student but not exceptional, one minor conviction for shoplifting in your teens. But what if crime had suited Ianto?
Commentary: What if, indeed? This is an amazing, noir-esque story about a Ianto who manages to still be the loyal, stubborn, intelligent man we've all come to know and love, even as he steals from alt!Torchwood. His meeting with Jack (presumably not immortal and still a Time Agent) and subsequent moments are well-done and just plain fun to read.
Excerpt: “What,” Ianto snarls, teeth grinding, “The bloody fuck do you think you’re doing?”

And the man laughs. “I’m robbing you, of course. What does it look like? Nice move, by the way.”

American accent. Ianto stares, not letting his arm waver, disbelief warring with fury. “And what makes you think I’m going to let that happen?”

“You’ve got no choice?”

Ianto cocks his head and raises an eyebrow. The man’s arm isn’t wavering either, and he’s pointing an old-fashioned handgun, a Webley, Ianto thinks, of all things, right at Ianto’s forehead. It crosses his mind that an old-fashioned gun like that might be slower than his own, although, probably, unfortunately, not slow enough.

“No chance,” he says, and knows it to be true. He doesn’t want to die in such a pointless encounter, but he will, if he has to. The goods are important enough for that.

Title: Come Away, Oh Human Child
Author: sparking_off
Rating: T
Word count: ~9200 - split into two parts by LJ claiming it's too big. Sigh.
Timeline: Set during ‘Small Worlds’, no spoilers past that.
Characters: Ianto-centric, Jack/Ianto.
Summary: An alternative take on the events in ‘Small Worlds’, from the point of view of someone who knows the fairies intimately.

Title: The World’s More Full of Weeping
Author: sparking_off
Rating: K+
Word count: 5779
Timeline: Set in the time between ‘Greeks Bearing Gifts’ and ‘Out of Time’, although there’s no reference to ‘They Keep Killing Suzie’.
Characters: Ianto-centric, Jack/Ianto
Summary: Ten years after the death of Ianto’s mother, he returns to her childhood home to say goodbye and to be himself, away from the dangers and secrecy of Torchwood, and away from the confusion that is his relationship with Jack.

Commentary: The idea of Ianto as one of the fairies' Choosen Ones isn't something new in fandom. What is new is the idea of Ianto as a fairy- a fairy lord, even. sparking_off's Ianto is a comflicted fellow, stranding between two very different worlds, both a which are frightening in their own way, not in the least because he loves them both. The writing style itself is very subtle and soothing, and sometimes nonlinear as well, as Ianto deals with the effects of things which to the reader have no cause. If you're a fan of strong Ianto or romantic Janto, this is a story for you.

Status: COMPLETE
Length: Multi-chapter
Word Count: 6,302
Warnings: spoilers upto and post: Torchwood 2x02 “Sleeper,” Character death, Smut
Comment or Excerpt from fic: Well, we move away from the angst-fest of the last few days to something more fluffy!... Well, fluffier than the previous ones. Fic based on the “Sleeper” episode from TW S2. Taking place from the moment Jack, Beth, and Gwen comeback after stopping the last sleeper agent at the military base and goes from there to post-“Sleeper.” Slightly angst, but it’s fluffy and romantic with a dash of Gwen-bashing and a whole lotta smut! *grins*

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

Ianto pulled the SUV door open, catching Jack’s limp body... and… debated what to do. Jack needed to be comfortable but there was no way to carry him down to his bunker. Unbuckling Jack’s seatbelt, he lifted... to get Jack stretched out across the back seat. The greatcoat had a tear... but nothing he couldn’t fix. He took off the greatcoat, tossing it over the front seat and cursed. Jack’s light blue shirt was blood soaked.

He shook his head. “You covered it with your coat, you twpsyn, why didn’t you let me know?” he muttered. He deftly undid the buttons of Jack’s shirt, revealing the blood soaked undershirt and a gaping wound... He lifted Jack’s head and slid into the seat, cradling him in his lap... “I wish you would’ve told me, we could’ve talked on the comms. You know I hate when you die on your own... But I’m here now...”

A few minutes passed and the silence was deafening.

Summary: Cupid comes in many guises.
Status: COMPLETE

Word Count: ~ 5,724
Warnings: N/A
Comment or Excerpt from fic: Well, they DO say that the Lord works in mysterious ways... or rather Cupid, in this case. And two of them, by the looks of it, who "accidentally" get taken through the rift and brought to Torchwood to help two stubbornly pig-headed people admit their love for each other. FINALLY! *rolls eyes**grins*

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

“Jack?” Ianto called, none of the alarm he felt showing in his voice. The gun held firmly in both hands, however suggested otherwise.

“What’s up?” Jack called back...

“Can you come here please. Sir.” Ianto replied just as calmly

That got Jack’s attention. While he sighed in frustration at Ianto’s continued use of the damn ‘sir’ thing he’d never heard it inflected in quiet that way before. Frowning he left his paper work, secretly hoping it didn’t breed... and... multiply on im. He was already half convinced Ianto must have a bloody breeding program hidden in the archives somewhere... and clattered down the steps to the main part of the Hub.

He froze at the sight that greeted him... He freaking hated Monday’s...

Status: COMPLETE
Length: One-shot
Word Count: 5,300
Warnings: one line from Torchwood 1x04 “Cyberwoman”
Comment or Excerpt from fic: A gorgeous fic dealing with a beautifully broken!Jack. His feelings for Ianto, his denial, and finally his acceptance just when things are about to go out of control is so realistic and so wonderfully written! *__* I’m just so glad it’s a happy ending!

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

There was fire. And screaming. And blood… oh god, so much blood. And he didn’t know what to do... he was supposed to do something but... he just didn’t know what… ‘Doctor!’ he screamed... Why wasn’t the Doctor here... helping? ... But he didn’t care. He didn’t want the Doctor near him. He wanted… something. It was lurking on the very edge of his mind, hazy... like a mirage. Taunting him to just reach out and… latch onto it.

Strong warm arms around him, a strange accent murmuring sweet nothings in his ear.

This is what he wanted. Or rather, who… His mind couldn’t even grasp who it was, and yet it was all he could think about. It was all that was keeping his brain from taking in the extreme direness of the situation, the horror of what was happening around him. All that was keeping him grounded, keeping him sane.

All that was saving him.

Summary: "There was someone else in the darkness."

Length: 5,626
Warnings: Character Death? Huge amounts of angst ahoy, mates.
Comment or Excerpt from fic: Oh this is a rather sad read. While it can be rather gorgeous, seriously - at the same time - big huge ouch.

It had been 86 days since Ianto died. Jack was counting because it was all he could think to do with the time he'd used to spend being happy about his life.

The team, of course, had moved on: packed away Ianto's office things, cleaned out his home, gently notified his mother and then stashed every remnant of his life into the archives so nobody would ever have to care again. Jack admired his team's efficiency, at least; they had actually acquired the resiliency that he himself pretended to have.

Curiously, Jack was able (to a certain extent) to push the grief to the back of his mind to allow his sanity some breathing room. Though the inevitable emotional implosion was always gleefully creeping around his mind trying to cannibalize his self-control, running away from fatally dangerous aliens allowed him to think of nothing else but self-preservation without feeling guilty.

Title: Forgotten

Status: COMPLETE
Length: Multi-chapter / 4 TOTAL
Word Count: ~ 9,777
Warnings: spoilers until and post-Torchwood 1x06 "Countrycide," implied: Violence, Abuse (physical), Torture, Non-Con
Comment or Excerpt from fic: Fic dealing with the aftermath of Countrycide when Ianto is forgotten and things are worst than before with the added threat of past betrayal. This fic is an emotional ride where Ianto's past and some hidden secrets are brought into light, but it ends on a hopeful note.

Bear the warnings in mind for some disturbing imagery and implications.

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

Ianto took a few minutes to sit by himself... Anyone observing him would have seen the swollen black eye, the bleeding cuts... A closer observer would have noticed the quick, shallow breathing... glazed eyes... the occasional shaking... Ianto, however, was practically invisible. It was a trait taught to him at his father’s knee... and... little Ianto would learn to internalize life... as... He quickly learned that by becoming invisible he could escape the bruises... bloody noses and the burns... At times like this, though, he wasn’t sure if he liked being invisible.

Being invisible today meant that he was ignored. In one respect that was good... It also meant, though, that everyone had apparently forgotten that mere hours ago he had almost joined the ranks of the fillet-ed... Ianto... broke through his... reverie. Slowly standing, all sound was cut off by the feeling of blood rushing in his ears. He steadied himself against the nearest tree, bracing himself... And that’s when the black spots came back again.

Comment or Excerpt from fic: Sequel to Forgotten (recced at the top). The first half of this fic deals with Ianto/Tosh friendship that has been developing since the last fic and in the latter half, we have Jack trying to bring Ianto into the team by taking him to a UNIT conference on a mission to retrieve alien tech. Ianto is more assertive and so kick-ass in this fic, a total 180 from the submissive and passive Ianto of before. And Ianto/Tosh friendship is just so heartwarming!

Bear the warnings in mind.

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

After Jack sent Mary to the sun, Ianto was left to interview Tosh. He was quiet, and considerate, rubbing her back as she cried and somehow coming up with an endless supply of tissues. He was kind, but thorough, the only one of the team not to blame Tosh for her indiscretion. Tosh was still raw, Ianto could see that; he knew the rawness, knew how it could eat at your soul... He’d remembered...

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

Ianto... threw back the covers and tumbled out of bed, making his way blindly to the shower. The hot water worked its magic to wake him, but did little to relieve the throbbing of his head. God, he didn’t remember getting pissed last night. Must have done though, to have a pounder like this... The pain in his head receded slightly when he managed to get a coffee... on his way to work... Still, when he cleared the tall, glass doors and stepped into the front lobby of his office building, Ianto shivered. Things were off somehow. Different. Wrong...

“Something is off... Like I’m supposed to be doing something, but I can’t quite remember what it is...” He shivered as the words left his lips... “Déjà vu...” Before he could say anything else, pain exploded in his head. The scream left his mouth without thought, his hands pressing tight to his eyes, trying to force back the agony. Vaguely, he realized he’d fallen to the floor... Thankfully, unconsciousness claimed him after that.

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

The thing about working for Torchwood was that there was not the time to take a couple of weeks out to reconnect with your team, make them understand why you left them, or get them to believe you weren’t leaving them again.

You would be lucky to even have time to think about taking your favourite of them on the date you had spent the last six months hanging from a set of shackles and fantasising about (however lacklustre it had sounded when you actually had chance to propose the idea).

Aliens looking to mess with the Earth’s infrastructure had no respect for romance, it seemed to Jack.

Jack was not entirely correct.

Comment or Excerpt from fic: In honor of all those lost and left behind...

I wanted to rec something that shows hope and strength in times of tragedy and sadness. I remember reading this fic a few days ago and suddenly, I remembered it, especially because it's based on "Adrift" and it was an emotional episode in itself - Jack's vulnerability, Ianto's strength, the hurt and sadness and despair through which they endure... together... and try to help the victims to the best of their ability...

~*~*~*~*~

EXCERPT:

Something was wrong. Ianto knew that much. Ever since Jack had joined him in the SUV, the older man had been quiet, almost thoughtful. It wasn’t that Jack was inattentive... but Ianto could see a heaviness in Jack’s face and as he looked into those blue eyes he adored he cloud see a cloud – a cloud that shouldn’t be there, and it was getting heavier.

“You okay?”... Jack jumped at the question then flashed a grin - except the grin didn’t reach his eyes. Nor did he answer the question. They carried on... in relative silence. Ianto was starting to get worried... “... Jack seriously - what’s wrong?"

... Jack... just turned and looking down at Ianto, replied wearily, "Gwen... She was asking about Johan Bevan...”

Ianto’s head shot up and his heart fell...

EXCERPT:

Ianto Jones was a heavy sleeper. Notoriously so. He had hardly had a poor night’s sleep in his life. At least, that was before he moved to Cathedral Road.

The house was beautiful; classic Victorian Semi-detached, lovingly maintained in its period style. The fireplaces were all original and functioning. It had a pleasant, bijoux garden, spacious kitchen, and a ghost in the attic.

That hadn’t been mentioned in the Home Information Pack.

“Here's the thing,” Owen said... while gasping a little for air. “Jack fucked up, yeah? And he asked me to keep this a secret, we managed to control everything but THIS escaped.”

... Ianto frowned a little deeper... Jack hadn´t mentioned anything to him… Ianto walked down the stairs... “What did Jack do?”

“Look for yourself.”

... Ianto sighed... when he noticed what was hiding against the wall under the table. “Oh, he didn´t…”

“Oh, yes he did.” Owen snorted.

Comment or Excerpt from fic: This is SUCH a CUTE fic! As annoyed as I might be for Owen always trying to push Ianto’s buttons, I’ve got to admit that it’s utterly amusing when these are the results!

EXCERPT:

“JACK!" ... Gwen screamed in his comm... "I just need to you to get back here – quickly.”

“Gwen?! Ianto?!” shouted Jack, running through the cog door, half expecting to find a rampaging alien loose in the hub or at least the team suffering from multiple injuries.

Instead he heard the sound of a child’s shriek and before he knew it a small boy – who was wearing one of Jack’s T-shirts like a dress - launched himself at Jack, hugging him tightly round the knees, jabbering away about something. Jack stared down as the boy looked up at him with large blue eyes that look scarily familiar. Jack yelped in surprise as the child was suddenly joined by another toddler, a dark haired, scrawny boy who looked very like…

”Owen?” asked Jack with a growing dread.

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

Title: Been staring down the barrel of a gun
Author:

wildstranger
Genre: Angst
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."
