I really liked how Ianto's thoughts in the fic seemed to fit his personality and I found it hilarious that Jack would arrive with pizza and Guinness when he's attempting to talk Ianto out of suicide.

I think this is probably my favourite fic of yours. Definitely one of my favourite Ianto characterisations ever. I love how this is a mixture of sadness and awkwardness and sheer absurdity (Jack sitting on his ass).

And I love how you wrote Ianto as being so practical about something as emotional as suicide.

Wonderful story. You should be proud of it. I wanted to quote parts of it but I honestly couldn't decide which parts.

Exactly what I was going for. :D *Dances.* I'm so happy it worked for you! I understand this one is a bit tough to get right.

*Hugs* Thank you for telling me that xD Makes me a really happy panda :D

My personal favorite is still the Andy one. I've been trying to write Andy fic again ever since, but it never works. :/

This is really lovely. And Ianto "you brought me a Guinness" made me want to cry, because here was this one tiny thing, a moment of thoughtfulness.

The tone was terrific, a nice transition from Ianto at the start to Ianto at the end.

So many great things, really ...

*buys fic a beer!* :D

This was really well done. Ianto was prepared for everything except Jack.
I think you got the tone just right, Ianto's desperation and Jack's came through loud and clear. Well done.
