I like this and I would love to see more.
Jack being in a place where everything is - skewed - is interesting.

I edited it - I should have given it another look over before I posted, but I've been sitting on this so long that I wanted to just share it with the world. Thanks for letting me know.

More is on the way! Part two is already partially written, although I do hope this stands unto itself.

I should have taken more care when I posted on the site! There's no set deadline: we've extended the challenge date for Reality One and were intending to get a few stories for that (still got my fingers crossed there) before we even posted a challenge for Through The Looking Glass. So don't panic. But yes, I've love to see more, and find out more about how this world diverged from our own.

poor old Jack - finds Ianto but Ianto doesn't even know him.

Trust me, I've been antsy to get this out. This world excites me and is going to be continued. (The history diverged in 1066, by the way, hence the Welsh speaking, but more will be seen when Jack goes with John to join Ianto and Gwen at UNIT.)

I probably should have said this earlier, but I lovelovelove the whole prospect of this universe. Most AUs are just the same old clichés used over and over again, but this is so refreshing and new (I know I'm biased and all that jazz, but hooray for Wales being Welsh :D). It's just so skewed and wonderful and HULLO THAR FEMALE DOCTOR and I cannot wait for more. CANNOT, I tell you!
...No pressure, or anything. :DDDD

*draws hearts all over everything ever*

Oh, thank you!

I might message you to bother you about a couple of Welsh words/phrases, to make sure that they're right for the next fic in this reality, if that's okay with you. (Should be ready soon!)
