ATTENTION CIVILIANS.

It always saddens me to see people of the twenty-first century mourning my death. I know I'm brilliant, but really! I'm obviously not dead, or I wouldn't be typing this on the holokeyboard for you to read

I'm fairly certain we paid them rent. Jack would know. Maybe we should have set up automated bill pay when we left. :o/

Who the hell is running the Tourist Office now, I wonder? It looks like they're not even opening the security gate.

[ask_aboutcoffee]

Would you, if you were greeted with that on the other side?

I think we had some kind of freehold lease. You know, those old "half a guinea every new moon" type of deals.

[gwen_e_cooper]

I love (most of) the deals Jack made in 1908.

Except for that one clause in our employment contracts. You know the one. Yes, that one.

[ask_captainjack]

That is the most awesome clause, Gwen.

If you'd been writing awesome contracts since 1879 you'd also be as good as it as I am!

[oh_doask]

They must love you. They gift you with instant coffee and Starbucks.

It wasn't me who signed the tiny packages out of the Archives and licked them clean

[ask_aboutcoffee]

How long do you suppose instant coffee lasts? Ten years? A hundred? Forever?

It wasn't me who put them out so you could take them away. Instant, really.

[oh_doask]

FOR 1000 YEARS! IT'S GOOD, YEAH?

I knew I saw your smug little smile from your little smug smile icon in the darkness

[ask_arealdoctor]

I'm so glad you boys are finally starting to get along.

[teaboyfan]

You are always so thoughtful. How kind of you to correct the misinformation and offer comfort to your 21st-century civilians. Of course we miss you here, but are happy knowing that you and Jack and Max-Theresa and all the rest of your cohorts are enjoying yourselves in the 53rd century. Do keep in touch!

[ask_aboutcoffee]

We do try our best. The BBC propaganda machine is fierce!

[ask_captainjack]

They filmed me at unflattering angles.

Being encased in concrete is a terrible look on me!

[ask_thehubtosh]

But the naked look with a slight coating of dust was a pretty good look for you.

[rednwhiterose]

Perhaps you need to take a notice out in the local paper. Something to the effect of 'I AM NOT DEAD....yet'. That would go a long way to alleviate the fears of your faithful followers.

[ask_captainjack]

We went straight to the source of the grief.

This is all part of Ianto's hyper-efficiency. Did you see the little ties on the sign? They're going to last for 1000 years!

[ask_aboutcoffee]

Would that I could! Newspapers are protected under the Temporal Freedom Act of 4601. We can't tamper. :(

[totally4ryo]

If you were able to go back and tamper, I think the better fix to go back and sort out would be with the writing staff back in the days when they were writing out this so misinformed documentary.

Oh well... at least we know the truth. IANTO IS ALIVE and living in the 53rd century. With Jack. With everyone else.

(Who did you piss off that they have to make us believe you're dead?)

[ask_theharkni]

What is this world coming to when you have to correct the people that you trusted to correct the problem in the first place. Ouch. That thought hurt my head a bit.

[ask_aboutcoffee]

It's all right, Hank, sometimes it hurts mine too.

You're looking...damp as ever.

[ask_theharkni]

Good to know I'm not alone.

*Proud smile* Thank you.
