Why you should read it:
Full disclosure: this story was written as a present for me. But I still really have to rec it! This story is like a bowl of creamy tomato soup & a grilled cheese sandwich on a snowy day. It makes you feel good. And there are so many delicious character moments: the banter between Jack and Gwen, Andy's lovelife, Rhys taking charge, and guess what classic sci-fi show Ianto is watching while home sick? It is very difficult to write something this light and breezy and keep it in-character and fun for everyone, but
51stcenturyfox pulls it off with aplomb.
