Title: Chosen. Rating: PG-13 Summary: They stole him. Just a little. Seconds of him, snatched out of time, out of space, taken beyond the World. To protect it. To protect Him.
OMFG! This is one of the most amazing stories I've ever read. I'm not overly fond of most CoE fix-its - they seem too contrived. But this works beautifully. And makes sense in the context of what we already know about the 456 and the Fairies and all the other character.
Oh thank god it wasn't contrived. I would have hated that.
I really wanted something plausible but a little fantastical and thought that the Faeries were perfect. We already know that they are capable of anything so why not this?
This was amazing! Spent half the time holding my breath, waiting for the other shoe to drop, and I love the interaction between Gwen and Rhiannon. Just... truly amazing.
I think Gwen and Rhiannon would get on - eventually. I imagine that there would be teething problems, especially as Gwen told Rhiannon that her brother was dead but I think that they would work.
Glad you liked it - and that it had some suspense for you. It's really hard to find any when you are writing it because you know the ending but I am glad it worked.
This is brilliant! Now that you bring it up, I can't imagine that the Faerie would stand by and watch the 456 mess things up (course, they aren't alone - CoE bothered me in so many ways). This was so well-written and paced! Thank you!
And also, so it's said? "It's my sister you have to worry about. They've had time to compare notes." That line is going to have me cackling for a while.
I really would love to read a fic where Rhiannon meets and grills Jack. She would be torn between being a bit star-struck and a protective older sister.
And the Faeries - I don't think they would sit back but what I wanted was for them to give the humans a chance and then when that didn't work step in. So this was kind of a rewind so CoE happened and then they picked it apart...
Amazing story! I just loved this. It's brillant that you used the fairies, makes perfect sense that they wouldn't take too kindly to the 456 messing with children. And Ianto got to be the hero and was saved too, getting the second chance he deserves. So much better than the hopeless tragic ending we got in canon. Thanks!
CoE really ticked me off so I had to change it. You are right - it was just too hopeless and bleak, there was nothing uplifting about it. I wanted to change that.
Enter the Faeries. Who better than to send the 456 packing then Earth's own demons?

If that makes sense?

C'mon, of all the canons out there, Whoverse practically has save points built it! It makes complete sense.

I suppose that's why the creators did it that way - it'll never end!
