Title: "Four Times Ianto Has A Story In His Back Pocket Down In That Room For Lisa and One Time..."

Author: cyus
Rating: standard
Length: oneshot
Pairing(s)/Character(s): ianto/lisa
Genre/Category: tragedy, missing scene, five things, relationship
Warnings: none
Spoilers: cyberwoman
Summary: At the end, there was only one story left ….

Why you should read it: Oh, god. This story brings Lisa to life, in the ending of her life, as no other story has so far. Short, with each word perfectly placed, the hope amid the hopelessness makes you ache for a different ending. The references to Jack and to the future they are desperately imagining makes the ending we all know is coming, and the mercilessness of Jack’s necessary acts in the show, that much more agonizing. I love this story because it’s got the feel of truth; the way people dealing with desperate illness and the shadow of death fight so hard to live both physically and emotionally.
