I can't remember if I've commented here before, but I just wanted to let you know that I absolutely adore this story!

It's definitely my favourite WIP at the moment and I'm so happy to read family interaction and mingling.

I have a "however" and this is the only thing that has niggled me, but I find this little paragraph:
When Jack turned back to his team they were talking about Gwen’s pregnancy in excited tones and Jack wondered if Ianto would begin gushing over the baby when it was born. If he did, Jack was going to drag Ianto out to the pub and some sporting event and remind him that, gay or not, he was still a bloke.
It's problematic for a whole slew of reasons and seeing as it's the only thing in the entire story that doesn't sit with the way you've written both Jack, Ianto and how you've been dealing with the queer issue, I'm curious about having it in here - it doesn't seem to mesh with the over all characterisation.

Keep writing awesomely!

Thank you very much; I'm really glad that you're enjoying it! There'll be plenty more to come!

That was a part that I was dubious about when I wrote it, I left it because it wasn't pulled up by anyone else, so I thought it might just be me worrying too much (there are several sections in previous chapters I've been incredibly dubious about, too).
...we'll put it down to Jack being daft & irritable.

Yeah, that's what I'd put it down to as well. Just Jack being snarky.

Thank you. I had to give them the SUV back, they need it! And I'm sure had things not all gone to hell they'd have got it back quite quickly.
