spoilers through 3x01

( My thoughts on Jack/Ianto in the new canon, let me show you them. )

And finally, apparently I couldn't help myself: have a ficbit, which may be turned into a proper story depending on how this week goes.

( jack/ianto snippet, sometime post-2x13 )

I trust everyone is enjoying their end of year festivities! This is a terrible time to be posting a story, but it is finished and might as well be brought into the world. Happy holidays, fandom, you bunch of mad people, I love you far more than is reasonable.

Spaceships Sailing In (On Christmas Day In The Morning)
Torchwood ; Gwen/Rhys with a side of Jack/Ianto ; PG-13 ; 5000 words ; title adapted from the carol
In which Gwen sleeps, Jack has a run-in with emotional honesty, Ianto is kidnapped by a wall, and Rhys meets his first alien tentacles. A Christmas tale.

( Rhys capped the lid on his pen triumphantly. )

What the hell, I appear to have committed Jack/Gwen. I don't know, guys, I just do not even know. But I do blame magic_at_mungos entirely!

Four Ways Jack and Gwen Fell In Love, And One Way They Didn't
Torchwood ; Jack/Gwen, Gwen/Rhys, Jack/Ianto, Jack/Gwen/Ianto ; PG-13 ; 1700 words
Four AUs off different bits of Torchwood, and one coda to 'Something Borrowed'.

( It's been a long time since Jack last fell in love. )

Going Home
Doctor Who
Ensemble finale cast; canon pairings
PG, 1400 words
Summary: Come home, come home, home to my warm embrace.
Notes: A coda to 'Journey's End'.

( Sarah Jane starts whooping too, laughing and crying for joy until she's breathless. )

I've Got A Diary, You Have All The Time In The World
Torchwood; Jack/Ianto, Gwen
PG-13, 2000 words
Summary: Jack's never really understood the point of celebratory days.
Notes: Set speculatively after Doctor Who S4, so casting spoilers for the finale. Undoubtedly makes a botch job of lefaym's excellent Torchwood timeline. Written in celebration of onehundredmoons' own anniversary - happy birthday!

( 'So, let me get this straight, you cleared the diary today so we could play with alien toys?' )

Anchored
Torchwood; Jack/Ianto
PG, 1300 words
Summary: There's nothing about Torchwood Ianto doesn't know; that's the deal.
Notes: Set sometime before the events of 'Adrift', spoilers for the episode.

( 'You know, you should take it as a courtesy I've left it alone this long.' )

So, as some of you have presumably already seen, buckle_berry hosted a Valentine's Day cardathon, whereby participants made in-universe Valentine's cards and sent them to each other via post.

I am going to assume that this is the reason for the delightful thing that appeared in my inbox last night! I thought it would be snail mail, but considering the pairing email would of course make all kinds of sense. :D It was all wonderfully formatted as well, which alas I have not the know-how to reproduce accurately, but it went something like this:



TORCHWOOD Internal Memorandum
To: All
From: Ianto Jones

Date: 14/02/2008

Re: Care and feeding of pterodactyl
Could whomever keeps moving the feeding trough to the left of the mail centre, please cease and desist? I have had to rescue the daily papers twice this week, and the basket of biscuits (sent to us by that nice woman we rescued from the Weevil last month) has been decimated. And not by Owen, for once. Need I remind you all that shortbread is not on the list of recommended dietary requirements for pterodactyl?

( the rest of the messages (vague spoilers for the beginning of S2) )

ETA: EEEEEE!!! morebliss is possibly the greatest person ever, because in fact the above was an additional gift, as she thought the card she'd sent me in the post was going to be late! Which it was, it came today straight from Myfanwe's clutches and now I definitely feel like a couple of snippets of the Torchwood universe have floated through the Rift over to me, or something.

I wish to goodness I could find my camera to take photos and show the beauty, but here is my best approximation of the card, though I fear I cannot fully capture the AWESOME.

( cut! )

morebliss, thank you so, so much, this is fantastic and I really appreciate the effort that went into it!

I couldn't resist when I saw this Jack/Ianto kissing meme, and wrote a little kisslet here. Aww, these are squishy making - aside from that and the SGA one, anyone know of any others? I apparently have no need of prior fandom knowledge to enjoy these things.

And also, I made this for the current theme over at fanmix (make an in-character iPod playlist) a few days back and thought I'd share!

Enjoy! Any problems with download, please let me know. Zip file on MediaFire, can re-do individual tracks on request.
