Thank you. And can I just say, your icon... Rufus Wainwright? Gorgeous.

Oh wow I love this! But...he chose jack, right? Right? Yes, yes he did. Yes?
Of course he did!
This is so cute! Jack really does need to tell Ianto he loves him :D
:) xx

Of course, of course. Always Jack :)
Ahh Jack, you silly man. Never know what you have until it's gone. Thank you!

ooooooooooooooo, that was WONDERFUL! I love jack getting possessive and spilling all the little htings he knows about Ianto... *sigh* he can be such a dumbfuck sometimes...

But that ending!! Jesus - I can't see Ianto being callous enough to dump his partner like that, but I hate seeing Ianto choose someone else over Jack... though he really does deserve it sometimes.

First of all... I kind of choked a little when you commented because I kind of... sort of... a little bit worship your fics.
And also, the image of anyone sighing and calling Jack a "dumbfuck" just amuses me to no end.

Questionable endings, I love them! I really did want Ianto to choose Caiden but then there's my fangirl heart screaming, 'JACK, JAAACK!'

that's so sweet of you to say!! And I sigh and shake my head in mild disapproval at Jack many many times a day as my muse doesn very stupid things when I'm trying to write =P

Also, I know precisely what you mean.. it's so hard to write any other pairing but them... it tears me apart to write them apart, so i very rarely do it =D Though I did love the name Caiden... mind if I contemplate nicking it? =O

Ah that Captain, he's just so... sighable.

Your Four Times Jack Forced Himself to Stop and One Time He Didn't... oh that nearly broke me in two. But I so loved it. :D (Especially because each outcome was the correct one.)

I had no idea Caiden was even a name until I googled it just then. I sort of just mashed some letters together. But yes, I like it too. Nick away!

Nice idea. I also like the ending, which leaves it vague to which one of them it is. I could see Ianto choosing either way (not to mention the idea of not choosing at all), and both scenarios leave me torn. That is always a good thing in an ending like that.

Thank you so much :)

Well that is frustratingly awesome! quaintheart April 13 2009, 17:17:05 UTC

I would chose Caiden. Jack had his chance. Jack has left at least twice. Jack did not say he loved Ianto when he had the chance (coward) Jack verbally & physically attacked Ianto's current boyfriend. Jack is forcing Ianto to chose RIGHT NOW.

But Caiden is working hard to learn Ianto, Caiden wants to eventually LOVE Ianto Caiden is apologetic, Caiden wants Ianto to take his time. Caiden respects Ianto

You have made me LIKE Caiden...

Re: Well that is frustratingly awesome! jerbearthompson April 13 2009, 22:11:09 UTC

You raise a good point. But still... Jack... Jaaaaaack.

Although you're right, Ianto - being the logical person that he is - probably would choose Caiden. But oh, Jack!

What a dilemma I have put myself in. I'm so glad you like him, I didn't want to make him the typical cliche' new boyfriend, I wanted him to actually respect Ianto. Thank you! :)
