And the rest of the weekend

Jan 07, 2007 20:11

Today has mostly been spent doing French course work (must make sure that I'm well ahead to make up for the weekends lost to conventions next month) and reading f-list stuff. I may have also been on the hopeless seach for good Jack/Ianto fic. And good Jack/Ten fic. When are all those good writers on my flist who I can see have been watching ( Read more... )

fandom, doctor who, fanfic, fic stuff, torchwood, weekend

I keep thinking about reading some Jack/Ianto, and I want to, except I don't quite know what sort of fic I want, but I think I'll just carry on waiting for you to say what's good :)

Xena died at the end of S6. Hasn't stopped lots of post-S6 Xena/Gabrielle fic being written.

Denial is not just a river in Egypt :) Post-TPM there was more fic with Qui-Gon still alive than there was with him dead. Not that I'm complaining :)

It's scary out there :-) Nobody's doing exactly what I want (although what I want is a rather nebulous feeling rather than a specific thing), but a few people are writing some interesting fics. It's just terrifying to work through the rest in search of those interesting fics :-)

I was wracking my brain for the big examples and that one escaped me - thank you! But it does rather prove that the way the last episode ended doens't need to be the end for Jack/Ianto writers :-) In fact, I'd be quite interested to see what they can come up with for how to get Jack back to Torchwood...

Do you get the feeling that I just really want good Torchwood fic no matter when in the run it's set? Hmmm... ;-)

Hence the reason I'm not :)

It doesn't have to anyway. Since they can't have a series 2 without Jack, that means he must come back somehow, sometime (relatively speaking) and then maybe he'll want comforting...

I like your icon, it's a bit freaky.

:-p~~~~~~~

*nods* There's comfort fic to write, there's lots of time to write how Jack returns to Torchwood, there's missing scenes, theres the story behind why Jack got to snog Ianto in End of Days, I'm sure the stop-watch hasn't been exhausted totally...loads of things to write! What I'd really like is a nice long plotty Jack/Ianto fic set post-End of Days positing ideas on how Jack returns and how Ianto greets that return ;-) If a bit of action/adventure could be added to the mix, that would be perfect.

Hmmm. I seem to have identified what I really want from a Jack/Ianto fic after saying that I only had a nebulous idea eight hours ago. Huh. Although really, if it's good fic then I'll be happy with anything. Except if Owen has siginifican screen time or, worse, sex.

I like your icon, it's a bit freaky.

Saw it the day after watching The Empty Child and couldn't quite resist adding it :-)

Yay, TW fandom! the_magician January 8 2007, 19:10:29 UTC
I love TW, and I'm definitely looking for more Raymond Baxter/Peter Snow slash (though I'd prefer Phillippa Forester/Kate Humble!)

Which season of TW was best? The early Raymond Baxter years, or the mid period with James Burke and Judith Hahn ... or are you a late period person with Adam Hart-Davis and Roger Black?

Ah, Tomorrow's World, now *there* was a good series ... and I'm glad to see they're bringing it back (as short segments in the BBC Breakfast programme, according to the opening segment I saw this morning!)

(oh wait, maybe you don't mean Tomorrow's World, but some other minor derivative series ... big grin! Certainly if I see a videotape around my house with TW on the spine, I know which show *I* put on it!)

*g* Starting to see where this got confusing...

Although Phillippa Forester/Kate Humble slash could have some potential ;-)
