yeah, i'm a stinker. but with time travel, is any story ever complete?

i think its important to note that in TW, Ianto called it a diary and not a journal. A journal denotes more intellectual and philosophical writing while a diary tends to be more about emotions. i can see the Ianto we've been presented with as dumping all of his raw emotions onto paper rather than expressing them.

You, sir, are a cruel, cruel man. You give me a happy ending, then you take it away. I'm American. You know what we've been fed all of our lives via T.V. shows and movies. Yes, that's right, everything ALWAYS, ALWAYS has a happy ending! Now, I figure if I look hard enough, I can squeeze one out of this epilogue seeing as how Branwen said the medical scan showed no specific damage to Ianto's heart. I'm going to ignore Jack's doubt and go with Branwen's "holy crap!" and take that as a sign that just because the timeline was accurate the first time, doesn't mean that it is infallible. So, la la, la, Ianto is alvie and well, and Franklin is the spitting image of him...

::evil grin::

so if i was to say that i'm scottish, but have lived and worked in the states for oh, 16 years, and spent that entire time working in said television and movie industry?

unlike my former boss, i don't intentionally kill off favorite characters, oh i'll torment them, but i usually put them back (mostly) in one piece.

hi,

just finished reading it all in one go and really liked it, even though i never read mpreg (but i hadn't thoguht to check for warnings before i started, and by the time jack got pregnant i was way too hooked to stop) :D

evil epilogue though. not nice leaving poor readers on the edge of their chairs, biting nails

thanks for sharing, it was really great

there will be another series. i'm just trying to figure out how to make it so people don't need a little chart to keep track of the action (which is how it's currently mapped on my desk).

another series is in the works. i just haven't figured out how to display 3 dimensional subjects on the screen. do i share diagrams?

Yes, share the diagrams parmanya August 5 2008, 20:24:56 UTC
For my part, I'd say yes it's fair to share the diagrams. One of the perks of using a 'print' medium?

*clasps hands anxiously* Ianto's okay,right? Right? Right? *lip wibbles* (BTW he really shouldn't be walking to the base right after a heart attack) You are SOO good. I've said this before but this series has been a joy to read and I hope you won't make us wait too long to see what happens next.

but the scan showed enzymes, but no sign of damage? is it really a heart attack? what did jack shoot him up with?

i'm still struggling. making it clear that we've got 3 time periods in one fic is going to be, uh, difficult.
