The Last Person, Torchwood fanfiction

[ariietis]

I'm a Jack/Ianto fangirl at heart, right from the start, even before I started watching Torchwood. For some reason, my mind never stopped picking up bits of slash even if it might not have been implied. Although, this little scene seemed pretty implied to me.

Title: The Last Person
Type: One-shot
Words: 100
Pairing: Jack/Ianto, tiny mention of Lisa

You're welcome! And thanks for reviewing!

I edited that line countless times because it just plain refused to convey what I wanted it to. And I didn't want to upset the 100 words limit I set. It wasn't even my intended "last line" in the first place! But I grew to like this one better.

Glad you like it!

(psst, it's "slew".)

[ariietis]

I'm kinda satisfied with this last line myself, because the first intended line would sound a little off with the feel that I wanted the fic to have.

Slew sounds weird, no? It's like, "you stew me!" huh-wha??
No wonder I've hardly heard of it. People must have been reluctant to use that word.

Yes!!! Another TW fan! *does happy dance*

The scene I chose isn't as frequently written as the one swift_tale wrote on. And the ones with this scene mostly touched on the "last person IS JACK!!!" rather than the way they stared at each other while the team chattered on. I love the whole understatedness of that scene and that you can tell there's something there. Glad you like this fic!

You can't escape TW! I know because I tried and I didn't want to go plunging into another fandom back then. But I did, and I don't regret it. UK script/story writers are consistently better than US ones, so it's time well-invested =)
(Yes, they are hot! If I told you that there's a scene where there was top-nudeness and implied naked hide-n-seek, would that sway you to come join us on the dark side? *evil*)

[ariietis]

Eric/Ryan naked hide-n-seek?! *thud*
What I wouldn't give for THAT.

I like Brit humour too! And I totally agree that the writers are more daring with their material. I mean, they've written same-gender stuff when it was still a prohibited territory in US shows. And to think that US is regarded as the more "advanced" country.

You can always come join in the TW fandom after your busy work period! I jumped in during a break after I ended a part-time job and before I started Uni.
