Title: Living with the consequences
Author: becky_h
Rating: NC-17
Length: short
Brief summary: This author managed to write believable Jack/Owen. Good, short, dark fic here.
Owen's neck feels fragile in Jack's hands - like a bird's. Like it would be easy, so easy, to snap. The skin there's thin, and he can feel the frantic beat of Owen's heart against his fingers.
Owen's excited and for a moment - just a moment - Jack wonders if Owen knows just how fragile life - his life - is. Jack wonders if Owen has any idea just what kind of risk he's taking, here.
Then Jack realizes, with clarity that's sharp enough to make him bleed for Owen, that Owen knows exactly how much danger he's putting himself in.

Length: medium
Brief summary: During Jack's absence, Owen tries to lead the Torchwood team. It isn't easy. Nice insight into Owen, and all the characters are well portrayed.
“If I’m really going to replace Harkness,” Owen decides, “I’m going to have to try to sleep with all of you.”
Gwen shrugs.
“Been there, done that,” she points out in such an offhand voice that Owen realises that that whole issue has resolved itself without either of them noticing it. Well. That’s a relief. Tosh flushes a rosy pink and mutters something about standards and ethics and looks so tormented for a moment that Owen almost wishes he’d kept his mouth shut.
“What about you, Ianto?” he asks, turning to where their receptionist is leant against the wall looking faintly bemused.
“You wish, Owen,” he replies with a satisfied smirk.
Ah well. No one can say he didn’t try.
