Title: Yesterday night, tomorrow morning
Fandom: Torchwood
Rating: PG-13, I guess? Just because of the aftermath to violence thing really.
Summary: After Lisa has been shot, Jack considers what to do with Ianto
Notes: So yes. The non-angsty thing I mentioned? Not this. This is angsty. My take on what Jack might say and do after Cyberwoman. ( Read more... )

Very nice. I love your description of Jack's attraction to Gwen, because she's yet to be broken. I think there's a lot of truth in that.

Yeah, it was thinking about Fragments that got that for me. Everyone else has something terrible in their past which is part of why Jack chooses to trust them after seeing how Alex just couldn't cope. I think letting Gwen in is partly a recognition that as a hiring tactic, it's not without its flaws :)

You bought her here because if it went wrong, there was a chance we could deal with it.

Oooh, it takes quite a bit for someone to point out a new way of looking at this ep for me, but you did it. Whether or not Ianto was aware of the motivation, yes, the Hub would have been a safe place to potentially contain Lisa should something go wrong. Very nice fic - bravo!

Thanks! I had to do a lot of thinking for this ep to make sense for me and this was one of the only ways I could see it. I think Ianto was in denial about this bit but it was definitely there.
