Beautiful look into Gwen's mind, you write her POV very well.

Thanks! I embrace Gwen partly because so many have attacked her. I think I write a better Jack or Owen, but I'm glad to hear that this felt right to you.

Nice, very nice. But I'll ask you the same question I would like to ask RTD about the next Torchwood season: Who's going to overlook Cardiff's Rift?

Well there's been some talk that the events of the Dr. Who season finale have taken care of that. Besides, Torchwood has always had multiple branches. Jack and Gwen can globetrot and banter and fight aliens as necessary. Thanks for reading and commenting. This was another tricky prompt for me to get a handle on.

It was tricky prompt for me too.

As for doctor who rewriting time I dreamt it of taking care of the 456 incident as well, but I'm not sure RTD wants it.

Can I friend You?

Feel free to friend. All styles served here.

I want CoE to end exactly the way it did and for TW4 to start with Jack coming back full as his omni-sexual, polyamorous self, in full smile and swagger to have sex with as many men, women, aliens etc as possible. The Jack we were given in The Empty Child and should have had in Torchwood all along.

What a fabulous drabble. Crackin’ pay off at the end; a great sentiment.

Thank you. Tricky prompt for me, because I'm among those who are not overly troubled by the change in Torchwood's condition. Glad you liked.

I agree. Torchwood is Torchwood and they'll do whatever they do wherever they need to do it. I'm excited to see what the new changes are.

Exactly. It's not about the Hub. It's about the people. And the Heart. Thanks for reading and commenting.

Beautiful!

I love the sense of place as well as the philosophical payoff.

ETA - Just looked up the lyrics too -- really neat! I didn't know the song but it's very appropriate.

As soon as I saw the prompt, that was the first thing that came to my mind...getting the song into a TW drabble took a bit of work.

Glad you liked.
