Hi all!

Okay, this might come off as more than a little bi***y, but this is the kind of fic I'm looking for because I'm all angsty and stuff, and I *really* hope someone can point me in that direction.

( very specific fic request : Spoiler for Cyberwoman )

character: gwen, ianto: mental stress, ianto: angry ianto, ianto: underappreciated ianto, jack: oblivious jack, genre: character bashing fics, character: jack, category: jack/ianto break-up, jack: cheating jack, character: ianto, ianto: ianto leaving, jack: chooses ianto

It's been forever since I read this, but I think this might be a little way up your street. I can't remember the extent of the 'I'm not taking your BS' from Ianto, but I know he gets a new fella and Jack has to really, really work to get Ianto back.

I'm going to read it again myself, since your post reminded me of it! It's the first of three stories, and it's called 'Attrition' by lazuli_kat. Find it here: http://www.btinternet.com/~lazuli.kat/tw_warning_page.htm

Oh if you've never read Attrition, you need to set aside a weekend, because you can't stop reading it, and it's very long!! She's posted a new ending as well, which is brilliant.

Read it via her LJ entry about how she has written these extra bits, as I'm not sure if the original link contains them. Here..

Oh and by the way, don't read the comments on that link! the article bit doesn't have spoilers, but the comments all talk about the end, and you really don't want to spoil this story.

http://graylair.livejournal.com/29280.html - Kick-ass!Ianto running rings around everyone. AU following season one, unfortunately abandoned.

http://evalentine99.livejournal.com/31264.html - Woobie!Ianto mans up and dumps Jack. It's second season and the focus is on Jack winning him back so might not be your fix, but I'm enjoying it.

That's all that come to mind, I'm going to see if I can dig up some more.

I don't know if this fits the bill or whether it's too soppy!

It's 'The Night Starts Here' by asrai. Ianto's not overly confident to start off with- more a realistic person, but he comes to have a lot more confidence and Jack does have to work at it.
PS You'll enjoy Attrition!

Oh, it is! And it's a wonderful fic, I'd forgotten about it! Thank you for reminding me! :D
And yep, I've bitten the bullet. I've been reading attrition since ten thirty today morning. It's three in the afternoon and I've JUST finished. *phew*. *faints* Now i need food.

These are not quite what you are looking for, but they do have a strong Ianto who doesn't just take what Jack dishes out ( ... )
