YES. God I miss Ianto so. freaking. much. but I like Esther, now, and I love this.

Great job!

This is so much better than any fix-it fic.
You continue to be an excellent writer. Every line of dialogue is perfect.

[sariagray]

While I enjoy reading some fix-its, I find I do better writing about how everyone deals with the aftermath. :) Thank you so much!

the more I read about MD the more relieved I am that Ianto didn't survive to suffer it ... although a scene like this, showing some of the fond remembrance of Ianto and the impact of his death of Jack, would make a massive difference - thank you for providing something we heard promises of and have yet to see evidence of ...

[onomatopoea]

I highly doubt it we will ever see any evidence of that promise. I mean this is RTD we are talking about right? :P

[angstosaur]

exactly ...

[sariagray]

Yeah, I think Ianto may well be better off playing poker with Owen, Tosh, and Suzie. :D Thank you! I feel like MD has been really cut off from the past, so I wanted to bring both old and new back together. :)

On the train trying not to cry!!

That was perfect. I am hoping at some point Jack does get to punch Rex. Just once :)

[sariagray]

A punch would be lovely, no? I just want someone to punch someone already. :D Thanks!

Firstly this is the first MD fic I have read. Bravo loved it. Thank you for having Jack punch out Rex!.

[sariagray]

Thank you! Wow! It is exciting to be someone's first. ;)
