Awesome PC Andy!

Loved the whole Ghostbusters thing, too. It's impossible to have any sort of gun strapped to your back without someone at least humming the theme tune. It's an old charter or something.

See? You get it, and so does Andy. I think the rest of the team is just getting jaded on the whole "guns on backs" issue. Thanks for sharing. :P

Andy is just excellent. So glad he's getting some well-deserved "screen time"! I'm just now getting caught up on this, and I have to say I'm having an absolutely fantastic time! The dialogue just snaps, the characterizations are spot-on, the premise is wonderful, and I'm totally loving all the pop-culture references (particularly the nod to "Shaun of the Dead" a couple chapters back! WIN!)

Looking forward to more!

Why hello there! Glad to have you visit. I've enjoyed throwing in the little nods to different things which are zombie. I mean, come on, it's zombies, in Cardiff! This is fun! And in the best of zombie traditions, it can be a bit grim as well. So glad you're enjoying it.

FYI - Chapter 8 will post this weekend. It took me a longer to get it written, and I managed to catch both my betas in the middle of really important real life things. That's the breaks. This weekend coming up is a long one for those of us in the states, so I'm hoping I might get Chapter 9 done and be able to post these two relatively close together. Keep your fingers crossed. :P

Very good.

Favorite line: I need you to turn around, and then walk forward about six steps.

I can just imagine Jack sitting with his mobile in front of the CCTV and really enjoying himself, it the most earnest way possible.

And i'm done my comps, so I think I'm going to finish the rest tonight, and go into work late tommorow!!

Congratulations on the comps! What a relief, right?

As for Jack and the CCTV, that's exactly what he was doing. He's a dickens all right. (But so much fun!)

Great chapter--love the whole Andy thing! XD You are SUCH a good writer!!

So funny: ‘Lovely,’ he thought. ‘The main entrance is actually a gaping hole on a civic thoroughfare, and they think they’re being subtle.'

(sorry for taking so gosh-awful long to read and comment on this story--I really do love it, tho) :)

Hey there! Glad you're around. Isn't Andy fun? I was worried, but I really liked writing Andy. I'm keeping him on the team in my future fics.

Been really busy. I hope I get my current story done - it's kind of a prequel which is sweet, romantic (sex!), and not too long about how Jack and Ianto decide to take their relationship to the next level. But, so much is going on! The gang and I over at TWU are trying to put together a Torchwood recs community. Work! Fun, but work. :P

Yea, Andy is awesome. :) Oh yay!

That's cool! :)

*ahem* Btw, did you see that I wrote that drabble you asked for? (/not-so-subtle self-promotion).

Yay for Andy, and Andy and Gwen's back story! And yay for the line about a gap in the civic thoroughfare, and being subtle.
