I love this. Please write more angsty Ianto/Owen with pissed off Jack. Nothing would give me greater joy after last episode. :)

This is fantastic! I love the way you write the Owen/Ianto dynamic, the way you always make them complicated and twisty and screwed up in beautiful ways.

I also like the way you write Jack, where you concentrate on his darky, more offensive characteristics, the parts that make him a bad leader. The parts that probably make his team just a little past stable. And the fact that he's rubbing off on all of them is especially sharp in this. Great fic!

Aaah, I love you!

Why couldn't TW have gone this way??? Complicated and tortured, THIS would've been the perfect way to put an M/M relationship on a scifi show, but of course not, they went the easy way out with Jack. BLEH.

Poor fucked up boys. Jack included.

Very, very good, and really interesting to read - it's fics like this that I learn a lot from to add to my twisted literary arsenal ;)

Thanks :)
