Summary: Jack’s a captive on the Valiant and the Master has initiated the extinction of humanity. Meanwhile, in Cardiff, the imminent threat has triggered a lockdown of the Hub, trapping the Torchwood Three team inside. For a year. (A “year-that-wasn’t” story of exceeding silliness.)
Why you should read it: Because it releases Toshiko's inner bitch? Because what could be more fun than locking the team up in the hub together for a whole year with no escape and watching them slowly go crazy(er)? The author labels this as crack, and I won't dispute that, because it really kind of is, but it's also so much more. The amount of detail that went into this story is amazing and it is in turns hilarious, sad, terrifying, heartbreaking, and inspiring.
