Title: Don't Say I Didn't Warn You
Fandom: Torchwood
- Characters: Jack Harkness, the Master
Rating: G (even if it's depressing as hell)
Summary: The last time, he had been powerless. This time, it only hurt more.
Notes: SIRIUS BIZNESS plot SPOILER for the END of CoE - Day Four and refers to the "Year That Never Was". If you are in the dark until now, GOOD. Stay that way for the next hour! Drabble.

Fly away with me
...Huh. Panicked last night. Saw it this morning, and I'm not that worse for it yet.

The text of poor rambling. )

Waiting for tonight is going to suuuuck.

I should do something today. Not shopping, but...maybe baking. Something not in front of the computer.

I do feel better though. I could probably even write, if I didn't feel like sitting in front of a computer is doing me no good, as well as the fact that I'm bloody starving.


...Tsubasa's on another break now. <.< Comeonpeople. Just finish the series already. We're there! We're at the end! Stop making us wait weeks.

Glimpses of bad things in the barely seen words of the people, cannot go out for fear of the situation being blunt, called have the ending without the beginning...INEEDDAYFOURUPLOADEDNOW. *panic* Oh blimey, oh crikey, oh shit shit shit. *more panic*

It's a television show; this should not be sending me to the madhouse!

I just want to honestly belt out a snippet of some kind to take my mind off it, but I'm jittery. Screw you people and your BBC One who know what's happened five hours ago. Do I really have to wait until morning? Until the afternoon? Until just before they show the last episode?

To hell with anticipation! *unnerved* I shouldn't have gone back to the comms. I shouldn't have gone looking too far down the rabbit hole.

Give me a straw to clutch, here!

EDIT: *soundless screech* I suppose I brought this down upon myself...I should have waited. ;.; I can't wait another two weeks. I need underground contacts!

You know, Gareth David-Lloyd, excellent actor.

Then he does lovesick, and I can't help but wondering if he's trying not to laugh when he gets as sappy as he makes Ianto Jones. It's like, good grief, man. You're going to make us all think he's absolutely codependent (maybe a little?) with the way you get down to it, and I hope to God you are laughing when it's over.

And it's not fair, because I could listen to a woman say these same things (I don't care to who), and I will accept that as overly emotional plights women will be socially plagued with for centuries more. But when it's a guy, half the time I want to say, grow some balls, because there are characters as much as there are people who do fall into a personality they expect it from.

Except the character doesn't even know where the relationship falls. How can you people make him say things like, "Come back to me," when...argh. No.

But that's not the point. The point is, I only hope GDL doesn't cry much in real life. Why? Because the moment something like a sob would escape his throat, there will be a LEEEGION of fangirls knocking down the door, ready to defend his ass against whatever upset him.

Because if he cries ANYTHING like Ianto cries, it's like watching a puppy getting kicked: you don't stand for it. And his fans won't either. ...The cast would coddle him on the back line and the fangirls would fight the fight.

And there's Gareth, on the inside, laughing like the devil because he knows he's so fucking GOOD at what he does...and keeps crying on the outside. Making that FACE from episode 1x04, the crumbled one when he's talking to Lisa at the ground level.

*tries to stomach the rest of The Dead Line radio drama* Shmoooooze!

Title: How Ianto Jones Fell Into Stereotype and Became a Village Person
Fandom: Torchwood
- Characters: Ianto Jones
Rating: PG (a curse or two)
Summary: The screams, the screams, the never-ending screams. And then, they stop.
Notes: Drabble-like. Intermediate plot spoiler for the second half of CoE - Day Two. Introspective on one particular scene (where did the binoculars come from?).

Can't listen to your heart every time. )

I suppose the original tale wasn't exciting enough. They just had to make it all interrelated with Grendel's mother.

I suppose for the sake of a disjointed story between Team G to Team D wasn't going to fly in the face of an audience, and no one knowing the story would complain that, duuuuuude, you just boffed Angelina Jolie.

Wiglaf, you stay away from that woman, you hear?? Just turn around, and walk away. There is a /reason/ Beowulf said the cycle cannot start again.

And if Hrothgar will get you Grendel, and Beowulf the dragon, what does that really say?

And, you know what? I'd kill to look that good with grey hair as Wealthow does. Srsly. Them thanes must have had awesome skin product secrets if she's in her fifties and not a line mars her face.

"We are coming."





Twenty minute preview of the Torchwood mini-arc on BBC on Demand. I gives you Things.

Spoilers for Children of Earth: Day One )

All in all...is it more than a coincidence that the next set of novels to be released will be /after/ this airs? Like, the very DAY after episode five ends?

As in, 20th-24th, episodes. 25th, BOOKS.

No, not I don't think so. La.

EDIT: YOU BUGGERS. YER GETTING IT THIS WEEK. *HUFF* *watches Day One in full* BLOODY BRITS and your bloody...argh. *SITS*

IT'S COMING!

And there is blood-curling SCREAMING across the island. You anywhere near Staten Island, and you will hear me.

Here we GO!



...Chris Sabat's gonna wind up playing Date Masamune, isn't he? TT_TT I don't mind /much/, but come ON, guy. Give someone else a chance? Because the right voice you got for Masamune is Tres Iques from Trinity Blood, and that sounds like a mix between your Piccolo and your Yamcha and...please don't be Masamune. please don't. Please be Takeda, please be Oda, but please do not be Masamune. YOU JUST LIKE THE SWORDS. And the tricked-up pony!

And please don't let either Ayres brother be Sanada, especially Greg. Pleeeease.

Luci Christian is probably gonna be Mori, if not an Ayres brother.

Eric Vale /should/ be Asai. Will he? Ohplease. If he's in it at all, they'll probably cast him wrong and give him Mitsuhide, Sasuke, or Maeda.
