OMG YOU CAN'T LEAVE IT THERE! WHAT'S HIS DECISION? DO THEY GET BACK TOGETHER? DO YOU FIX JANTO? PLEASE FIX JANTO.

PLEASE write more *eyes like the kitty in Shrek*

Usually, I can't deny the kitty!eyes, but I don't have any plans to write more. And before you start lobbing things, here's why: I want you to decide. To be totally honest, I wasn't sure which way I wanted to go and I knew either way there might not be happy readers. So for the moment I'm going to leave it like this and let the readers fill in their own endings. Maybe I'll write more later, who knows? But thank you so much for reading this, it makes me so happy that people are taking a chance on it!

Ummm...wait.
PLEASE don't leave it there (begging here)
It is the GIVING TIME OF YEAR...give us the rest
I want comfort and joy!
This is truly lovely and you are a cruel person to stop there!
Please, please, please!

I would love to give you comfort and joy and I don't want you to hate me, but there isn't any more. At least not now. The reason I ended it like I did was because I wanted the readers to decide on their own what they wanted to happen to Jack and Ianto. But, so far, everyone has asked for more so maybe I will write some later. But I don't have any plans to write more at this very moment.

But thank you so much for taking a chance and reading it! I'm very proud of this fic and it makes me happy that people are reading it, even if they aren't happy with the ending.

I'm so glad you liked the fic, even if you didn't like the ending. I really wanted to give Mickey some justice because I love him and I think he deserves more than what the show has given him. Plus, it wouldn't be Torchwood without some emo!Jack. :D

Adding my pleas for an epilogue at least!

I really enjoyed seeing Mickey in this, and I loved the fact that he and Ianto were good friends. All in all, a pretty damn good fic (apart from the fact that I would have preferred the ending to be a little later in time).

For the moment I don't have any plans to write an epilogue, however with all the requests I think I will put it on the back burner. I'm so glad you liked Mickey, he's honestly one of my favorite characters and I feel he needed more...well, everything. And I love the idea that he and Ianto bonded over their significant other's relationship with the Doctor. I'm so glad you took the time to read the fic and that you liked it! I'm very proud of it and it's making me happy that people are actually reading it, lol.

please give us more, cries, please!

erikssiren December 20 2009, 05:47:52 UTC

As of now there's no plan for more, but you never know! All these requests have warmed me up to the idea of a possible epilogue some day.
