Rating: PG
Spoilers: Fairly major spoilers for Adam
Ianto starts to dream of dark alleys, of young girls and of torrential rain. He dreams of the girls dying. He dreams about their begging and their screaming and of their fear. And always he dreams of a man who he can never quite see. A man who watches the killings, who helps to hide the bodies, who always seems pleased with events. A man who never says anything except ‘remember’.
He tells Jack all this, but he leaves out the worst part. Every time Ianto dreams he is the killer. And every time a part of him enjoys it.
Title: Flowers

Paring: Owen/Tosh (hints)
Spoilers: Spoilers for Adam
He'll never know what they lost in those missing hours, but Owen is certain he did not send those flowers. Owen doesn’t do flowers. Not even if the look on Tosh's face when she read that card made him wonder what it would feel like to be the kind of guy who does send flowers. He takes a closer look later though, and can't help noticing that, if he was the sort of guy who sent flowers, they are exactly the sort he would have picked for Tosh. But of course it doesn't matter because Owen Harper doesn't do flowers.
Title: Forty Eight Hours

Rating: G
Spoilers: Spoilers for Adam
Jack is missing two years from his memories, an extra forty eight hours here or there make no difference to him. He can't help wondering what happened though. The CCTV footage is so well erased that only he, Ianto or Tosh could have been responsible for it. He can’t imagine why, by all accounts, the rest of his team found themselves together, while he woke up alone in the vaults. He doesn't stop them trying to find out what happened, he doesn't help them either though. He has a suspiscion that whatever it was they probably never want it back.

Spoilers: Major spoilers for Last of The Timelords
Jack wishes he could tell them about the year they’ve forgotten. He wishes he could tell them the things he saw them do. He'd love to tell Gwen how strong she was, and tell Owen how well he led the team. He'd like to tell Tosh how brave she was and Ianto how he took care of everyone. He’d like to tell them how proud he was of them. But then he’d have to tell them of their deaths, watching each other die and fighting an enemy they could never beat. So instead he tells them he's proud of them.
