Oh, good grief.

I really thought I'd done all my crying about Jack and Ianto, barring actually watching them on screen (particularly in Day Four), but then I read this, which is absolutely brilliant, and just completely heartbreaking:

What You Forgot by harmyjoBecause a thousand years is something we can't even comprehend; it's too fantastical to be ( Read more... )

I'm not sure whether to post this widely, 'cause...well. It's not brilliant, really.

I'm still not entirely happy with this story, but have posted it anyway, because...well. Other people seemed to be!

Have at it! There's some amazing stuff over

Well, here I am; eating my second bacon sandwich of the evening (which can't be a good idea), watching the Torchwood fandom explode with rage, from a clear distance, and I have a meme, nabbed from the Queen of Newport herself; insevens. Have a look!
