Title: "Asynchronous"
Disclaimer: I'm not RTD, I don't work for the BBC, and as much as I might like to, I don't own Jack or Ianto or any part of Torchwood. I do, however, order pizza under that name on principle.
Pairings: Jack/Ianto
Rating: PG
Notes/Summary: In which snow days do not occur. Written for the January 10 prompt at redismycolour.

( The thing about anniversaries - and that’s any kind of anniversary, not just birthdays or first kisses or groundbreakings or armistices - is that space travel and time travel makes them irrelevant. )

jack/ianto, red is my colour, torchwood

I like that. I like the playing with time, trying to make the time-lines cross without really crossing them and Jack's self-rationalization.

The payoff of the last paragraph is awesome.

That's part of the fun in writing in the overall Whoniverse. The rules are still rules, but sometimes they're a bit more like guidelines than proper rules.

Thanks for reading!

I'm a total sucker for fics that let these guys have more time than they have.
