It'll End In Tears #16: "Peace Offerings"

[invisible_lift]

I know some of you are sitting there wondering if perhaps I have been captured and eaten by cannibals, or buried under a city by my vengeful, long-lost brother. Rest assured, I have not. I have simply been attacked by Real LifeTM much more than I typically like to be instead of being elbow-deep in hawt bondage threesome.

Title: "Peace

This was cute--and I love the playful, not-sexy post-sex banter. *grin*

[invisible_lift]

I think this is probably one of the lightest installments in the series so far, and thus sort of a blank check for having fun.

I'm glad you liked the banter afterward. I tend to think that the sorts of conversations I'm getting them into are a great indicator of intimacy. It's hard to have fun like that in bed with someone you're not becoming comfortable with.

Thanks for reading!

It's funny-- this series started as Ianto/Andy, and I didn't want to see Jack enter the fray because I liked what was going on there, but at this point it's the new aspects of Jack that I'm really enjoying, and the Jack/Ianto (the non-sexual stuff, for a change!). Can't wait to see where this goes next, and I'll just try not to think about the name of the series...

I was joking with aibhinn about how writing Torchwood predisposes me to a certain amount of paranoia when I read. Disaster and betrayal and so on are such a big part of what goes on in this fandom that I actually find it difficult to read Doctor Who fic sometimes.

So, you know, there's a bit of perspective. ;)

Also, I still blame you for this series. Without your "I want more Ianto/Andy" prodding, it would have been a trio.

[silverrose]

I'll happily take the blame here. Though really, I had no idea it was so easy to get what I want from you. If I had, who knows what I might have asked for?

[invisible_lift]

Deviant. ;)

[invisible_lift]

Hey, take it where you can get it! ;)

And really, doesn't everyone deserve a hawt bondage threesome now and again?

[invisible_lift]

Clearly we're going to look for the right parties at D*C...

Whoo-hoo! A new chapter! I've been waiting. I loved the 95% angst-free sex! And a Jack/Ianto/Andy sandwich! So yummy! Thank you, thank you, thank you! And you know what? This is some of the best dialogue you've yet written (IMO). The banter back and forth is terrific and sexy. Also, I loved Ianto calling Jack stinky - that's so "guy."

[invisible_lift]

I've been promising the sandwich for a while now. I figured I needed to make good on it. ;)

Speaking of guy-ness and Ianto, I stumbled on a neat little fic by jbs-teeth early this morning that you might like if you're into Ianto's relationship with his own masculinity:

" The Uncomfortable Moment in Which Ianto Realizes He Does Not Want to Clean a Litter Box, and Others."

It's a companion piece to a realization on Jack's part, but it's all linked.

I really liked the banter in this chapter, in particular the Marmite line.

[invisible_lift]

The sad thing is, I've never actually had Marmite. I've had a bad Vegemite experience, though I attribute that to the fact that I applied it as one might apply apple butter, and am assured that if I do it properly, it's actually not a gastronomic nightmare.

Glad you liked the dialogue! Thanks for reading.

[love_jackianto]

I've never had Marmite either, but I've heard it tastes like a spoon full of salt.
