awww that was lovely.really emotional but i loved it!especially the last part.btw i love your jack/ianto page layout :) howdya do that? x

Thank you! =D Hey, is that you in your icon? I was totally stalking your YouTube. You are so frickin' lucky, man, oh my god. ♥GDL owns my soul! And also, I want that t-shirt like burning. Where did you get it?

My Jack/Ianto layout was made by me. That is, the banner is made by me. The layout is just a Simple Squares layout, and I changed the colours using HTML. You can do all that in Customize Your Journal. If you want a banner, I'm happy to make one for you. It doesn't have to be exactly like that - if you have a specific idea for a banner you'd like, I'll do it.

PS, your art is absolutely beautiful. I love the sketch of Gareth you made, but that shadow-style one of Jack and Ianto is wonderful as well. I'm so jealous!

yep that's me.haha and yeah totally.GDL is made of awesome.and he smells sooo.. good.*cough* moving on.

that would be great if you could make me one please but i don't know how to get it on there.im rubbish at HTML.anything as long as it;s Ianto would be good.with a red/black colour scheme.

awww thanks so much.im currently drawing another of Ianto but i can't get his mouth to look right.grrr..

*laugh* I kind of what to ask exactly WHAT he smells like but the sanity buried deep inside me is saying that would be creepy.

Ah, well, I totally will make you one but I definitely need more specifics than that. I've been doing so many graphics lately I'm running out of ideas. Do you want swirls, stripes, polkadots, bubbles, squares, text, your journal name, a quote... you get the idea. Plus this way, you're designing your own journal!

Also, if you have any pictures of him you'd like me to use, send 'em over, because I don't actually have that many.

I know, seems like a lot of work. But I promise I'll make the banner if you'll help me out with the design!

By the way, friending you. =) And looking forward to the Ianto drawing!

I love this. I don't think that Ianto is a jealous person (how could he love Jack and not go nuts if he was). My favorite bit was this:
Ianto wasn’t sure he ever wanted stability after what had happened with Lisa, and in that Jack was perfect for him.
I totally think that this is true. The Lisa was marriage and normal and he loved her and he can love Jack with the same devotion because loving Jack is nothing like Loving Lisa.

Ianto's face in your icon makes me wibble. It's adorable!

Thank you so much. =) It's interesting, because my Ianto (I think we all see him a bit differently) is insecure in lots of ways, but I don't ever see him as being jealous. He's too used to Jack, maybe?

I'm glad you liked that bit, because I wasn't sure. We can clearly see that Ianto is readier for the emotional aspects of their relationship than Jack is - and yet I don't see him as wanting your average white-picket-fence life.

Heartbreaking, wow!

[wildejoy]

Aw, thanks. I hope it wasn't too sad, though. It isn't precisely a happy ending, but at the very least Ianto has the small victory of being chosen over the Doctor, right?

Brilliant. I love ianto's pragmatism
