Bravo! What a fantastic story. You capture the original characters so well - even after they have changed, they are still completely Gwen, Jack, Andy, and Ianto. Simon and Archie are great additions.

I am a little curious if I've missed a part, as the header to the epilogue mentions two parts.

No; I accidentally left the info from Part Four in the header, instead of replacing it. It's been fixed now.

Although I'm not sure that the epilogue is quite done where it is; the whole story's probably got one more revision left in it, so there's still room for growth.

Absolutely brilliant --my favorite of the tw_bigbang stories so far, I think. What can I say, I'm a sucker for some timey-wimey Jack-on-Jack action... ;)

You can't have Jack and... well, Jack in the same room and not have them make out at some point. It's just not right.

Thanks! And thank you for the initial beta work and comments; they were much appreciated!

(I feel like Captain John fell a bit by the wayside in this draft. Hopefully the next edit will have room for copious foreshadowing AND John being sneaky.)

This is brilliant. Heartbreaking and creepy and mysterious and wonderful. The Gwen POV was inspired, it really made it all that more gripping and gritty.

Thank you for a great read.

Excellent. Nicely timey-wimey, well in-character and gripping enough that I read it all in one go despite having to get up early tomorrow!
