And, owh poor, poor Jack, nevery time he thinks he's lost everything, it gets rubbed in how much more he has at risk.

I'm so, so mean to Jack, aren't I? I just can't let him alone. Like, at all. :(

O_o

Nope, that you can't. :( There's something about broken Jack that's so appealing. And the guilt he's going to feel soon *sniffle*

So, what bribery would do for moar?

Wait, what? THAT'S IT? *Wails* You can't just leave it there! This 'verse is too awesome. Oh, and I loved this part. I love anything that reaffirms that Jack was absolutely in love with Ianto, but still keeps him essentially Jack. And hail, hail the gang's all there, except for John and the O'Neill. What's with the time anomaly? Why does everyone hate Pearl so much? Who do you have cast as Pearl? For some reason, Uma Thurman kept springing to mind. I do hope you write more...

Pearl is the Agent from the first story, which means she is the utterly brilliant (and delightfully good at playing crazy) Gong Li. (Although Uma Thurman would have been totally amazing too!) And everyone hates her because she's ruthless and she's basically blackmailed/threatened violence to each and every one of them so that they'd go along with her little scheme to get the old gang back together.

As for the time anomaly, you should probably watch Doctor Who series 5 if you haven't yet!

WOW, lol, I totally missed that. I shall have to go back and reread. And yes, I have not yet had time to watch the last four episodes of this season's Who. Although I did go walking in the countryside and saw a beat up old Cadillac with Police Box stenciled on the back and Bigger on the Inside stenciled on the side! The resulting squeal was rather embarrassing.

Oh my god what an amazing Cadillac! I would have squealed too! (And probably jumped and down a bit, but that's beside the point.)

Yes you should go watch the last four episodes. And then come back and read this last episode of this fic, because it will CHANGE EVERYTHING. ::SUPER SERIOUS FACE::

Surprisingly, I liked it, even though it's post-COE. Who are the other actors? I only recognized Michelle Rodriguez? I kind of recognized 2 and 3...

Well I'm so glad you enjoyed it even with the post CoE-ness of it! I know some people won't touch post-CoE stuff with a ten foot pole, haha. What can I say, though, I love the allure of a brooding man and a dead lover.

1. Gong Li. A Chinese actress. Not sure how many American movies she's been in, although she was probably one of the only good parts of "Memoirs of a Geisha" (AND SHE WAS SO GOOD).
2. Colin Farrell. Irish actor. Last saw him in "In Bruges", which was an excellent movie, but he's been in a LOT, although not often with his accent.
3. Omar Epps. He plays Foreman in House on FOX.
4. Michelle Rodriguez, like you said. :)
5. Ray Stevenson. He was in HBO's Rome as Titus Pullo, the latest Punisher movie, which I didn't see, and in the "King Arthur" movie with Keira Knightley and Clive Owen, where they're Romans defending Hadrian's wall.

Ray Stevenson was also in a recent, fairly decent killer Nazi zombie movie called The Outpost.

I really love the leverage these agents have on Jack. It's a chilling threat. And I love how everything comes together. And the suspense. This is the perfect set-up, and if you don't continue, your readers are going to gang up on you, hunt you down, burst through your door and threaten you with blasters until you do.

Loved this. LOVED IT. I'm so sad it's over! The thought of Ianto getting wiped out of existence is awful. I hadn't even considered that possibility. Poor JACK.

I need more. Will there be more? There should be more.

Yay thank you! And yes it is totally awful.

AND I'M NOT SAYING ANYTHING. NOTHING AT ALL.
