yeah, i love the idea of all kinds of people meeting during the year that never was... & martha/ianto was just the logical conclusion, *g*

& thanks.

This is STUNNINGLY beautiful. Quietly painful yet beautifully hopeful. A glimpse of a time that never was but a love that could be, if not for the intervention of time.

And that Jack understands, that Jack grieves her loss, but holds tight to his joy... neither wishes to hurt the other while both wish to hold the young man they care for/love. Both warriors finding strength in Ianto's quiet and careful care of them... even in such different times.

Your use of language is... absolutely amazing. The quiet but powerful images in such mundane things... the scent of her hair, the look in his eyes. So wonderful. "I wish I could never forget you..." - "As much as I love the Doctor" - "You smell like the wilderness, Miss Jones." - "Like freedom."

just.... wow. Absolutely WOW!

This was a wonderful way to start a day.

thank you.

Peace,
km

oh wow, *blushes* thank you so much for that wonderful comment - i think you just made my day :D i absolutely love that you like this so much, *g*

i think you understood this exactly how i wanted it to be read... especially what you said about jack. i often think of ianto as a source of peace & quiet - especially for people like jack or martha, who are loud & active (and need someone to help them calm down)

& since english is not my mother language that compliment really made me *squee* out loud, hee. thank you so much, again.

& thank you so much for the lovely comment (i hope your heart hasn't suffered any lasting damage though)
