Summary: In which Gerald Carter is distinctly annoyed, Ianto Jones goes exploring, Lisa Hallet is the cause of a falling-out, Owen Harper contemplates new digs, Jack Harkness has sex (with architecture), Gwen Cooper weds, and Glenn Miller plays.

Why you should read it: This is a quiet, extraordinarily beautiful love story. It details an intense relationship between the Hub and Jack. I'm not going to explain how it works, or why it works, but it works very well indeed. It has it's ups and downs, like any relationship, but it stands the test of time, appropriately enough, with strength and grace.
