Aww... *wants to cuddle them both* That was a lovely coda to one of my favorite episodes. :)

Oh, poor Ianto. He doesn't wear his heart on his sleeve, but he feels so deeply. *hugs him* Great fic!

He definitely isn't as outwardly emotional as Gwen, put the Cyberwoman episode showed that he really is a passionate character. Thanks!

Oh, Ianto =(

There's a fundamental difference in Ianto's and Jack's outlooks on life that shows really clearly in the scene where they realise only one breath is left in the flask - Ianto is devastated that he only managed to save one, while Jack is ecstatic that they actually managed to save one. For Jack, it's a victory, for Ianto a failure.

I feel so bad for Ianto, but Jack's right - it wasn't his fault, he did all he could and succeeded in saving a child, and that's a good thing. I only hope Jack can make him believe that!

Jack's lived and lost a lot longer than Ianto has, while Ianto has lost a huge amount in a short time. He is probably still beating himself over Lisa and Canary Wharf, about being unable to save her.

Beautiful little missing scene.

I always felt that they could have added more about the day's effect on Ianto, since it started off with him wanting to share more of himself with the team. Thanks.

Great episode coda. And it really fit into Ianto's mood at the end of the episode.

He was really hurting at the end, I felt that he needed to have someone be there for him. Thank you.
