Ianto's quoting SW, Owen has Cosmo, and they're staging a plot. Awesomeness.

Ianto's quoting SW,

LOL, I wondered if anyone caught that.

Ah. You're talking to the girl whose SW collection ranks in the several hundreds.

Okay I'm going to TRY to exert self control and wait a day or so to read the second half. We'll see how long THAT lasts ( ... )

d8rkmessngr October 21 2008, 03:55:05 UTC

Anyway. I think it's interesting. XD //Tangent, sorry.

Want to know something funny? I watched DBZ in college so I know exactly what you're talking about. :) And yes, Lucy and Jack's parallels are deliberate.

I feel stupid, but what are two things that make up the "both" that Jack can have? Torchwood and Ianto? Love and security?

No, no, don't feel stupid. I left this very open to interpretation. For me, Jack was looking for love, a lasting love, but always thought because of the way he is, it would be denied to him. He also wanted acceptance of what he was, but to be accepted as immortal, he was sure love would be denied than because who could love a fixed point? -raises hand- LOL

you don't patronize your reader with simple summaries of the characters' inner struggles or emotions, so when I don't know what I'm supposed to get I KNOW it's a me thing and I'm usually afraid to ask. XDA friend of mine (who steered me towards using the flashbacks) summed it for me the best: "readers aren't stupid. You could draw your fic with the 16 ( ... )

As someone who got into DBZ late in life, I was pissed that with all the interesting stuff in there, at no point did the "bad guys" win or have good things happen to them. Vegeta shouldn't always be second just because he's not Akira's idea of the ideal hero. /rant over.

Lol we could form a "I love a fixed point" club.

Very good way of describing it. The crayons DRAW the point COLORFULLY. (I'm sorry.)

So I already read the second part up to the transition. I FAIL at self control. Iwannaknowwhathaaappens.

I love Lucy!

*snort*

Your Lucy, that is.

She's the perfect combination of "hell hath no fury," full-tilt crazy, and human vulnerability.

I'm off to read the next part- the tension and suspense are killing me!

:) Thank you! I was worried I might have overwrought Lucy. She was fun to write. :)

capulet_rose October 21 2008, 04:33:18 UTC

"She was fun to write. :)"

lol- I'm sure she was!

*passes over patent leather apron*

...looks great with an egg-beater.

;-P
