Ah, I was worried for a minute. I should trust you to pull a happy ending out of the hat. :D

I was terrified that no one would read to the happy ending because I did the unforgivable, but Nosy stepped in and showed everyone.

Thank you!

That's their loss, then. Just saying! :D

So far everyone has been happy with the result =)

That includes Jack and Ianto.

Still not sure I forgive you *reaches for another kleenex*, but I'm very glad he's okay, or better than okay.

Ianto forgives me, he was only a bit dead, not completely dead. Nosy could see that ;)

I was complete wreck writing the first half of this, it's probably the most horrible thing I've ever had to write because I just hated killing Ianto and putting Jack through the grief, but it was necessary so that the device could pump him full of vortex energy and make him like Jack, so I had to do it. Sorry =(

But look how happy they are now!

Thank you.

Lol, I was a complete wreck reading the first half, do you obviously did a good job of it!

badly_knitted September 3 2016, 23:40:57 UTC

Perhaps a little TOO good!

I made up for it though.

*phew*
That was a tragedy I wasn't quite ready to accept yet.
What a twist. Glad Nosy took that "nasty stick thing out"
And now there are 2.

Nosy is very smart, it could tell the only thing stopping Ianto from waking up was the stick. Sometimes it thinks its people are a bit stupid ;)

I've always said I will never kill Ianto permanently, but sometimes a temporary death is necessary in order to change the rules.

Thank you!

That is truly marvelous.

Great fic

Thank you!

I hated killing Ianto, but I had to so he could enter the next stage of his life. I hope he'll forgive me!

Definitely this is canon for me (much better written than some episodes of the show). Fantastic!

badly_knitted September 3 2016, 23:57:16 UTC

Thank you, I'm glad you liked it! I will keep making Ianto immortal until it sticks ;)
