they gave the little half-arsed explanation in journey's end; but i decided to expand it a bit. besides, its always fun to tie TW back to Cardiff-based Who epis.

"Jack's dead, she's not. You know how it got the name Caesarean. Just. Just do it Martha."

Very strong Ianto!
What a chapter!
And I am so glad that you picked other aliens than they usually do in canon.
I don't think I'll be able to enjoy the christmas invasion of dr Who. Again with the cybermen!

Can't wait to see what you did to Jack and the baby.
Just one night away! He gets the easy way of giving birth. And possibly the worst. I don't want to think about having to go of to die when your that pregnant.

the innocent face of the gelth just struck a chord. and having them hurdle backwards in time through the rift just seemed opportune.

that and the chance to make yet another causality loop got me all a-tingly.

This may be the best chapter of the series so far. It's too bad there are only two days left in July. (At least, I assume you're going to wrap this up when "Horizons Sing" finishes.)

the main story will resolve with the conclusion of horizon's sing. there's chatter of a continuing story that will be a little less frenetic a pace. this beast just ticked of 50k words -- my brain is hurting at that.

oh powerful chapter! I love Ianto's reactions in this. They are just spot on. Gwen is also quite good here. Great tie-ins with Dr. Who.

poor ianto. always having to be strong when all he wants to do is break into billions of little pieces.

gwen... how the hell did that happen? i went from nearly shooting her, to making fun of her (gwen cow) to now she's some sort of shoulder of support?

its almost as loopy as a real TW story...
