Gripping fic! I really like how Jack and Ianto are on different levels of thought (i.e. Ianto missing Jack's signals completely) as it adds a level of realism and makes the situation sadder and more painful. Cool to see Jack!angst/Jack!vunerable as well, as it's not shown much on the show (and there's not many fics showing rape/affect rape might have on Jack, so it's very unusual). Would love to see a conclusion to the fic, but I understand that you wrote it quite a long time ago. But if you happen to have it on a hardrive somewhere...I'd be very happy ;) Anyway, kudos, and thank you for writing and uploading!
Ps. And there's always someone reading! ;p
What's the pkg that poor Jack was in agony over? Will anyone discover them downstairs before it's too late? Is there an anti-toxin for the aphrodisiac that Ianto's on? Does Ianto get a chance to shoot John Hart??????
Please tell me the story continues; I saw in your A/Ns for chapter 6 that you thought no one had been reading you -- is that why you haven't finished the story? If you really don't intend to see it though to the end, would you please send me a private email and tell me the basics of what you had intended to write? Please???? Put me (and Jack and Ianto) out of our miseries?????
Now that the pleading and groveling is over, please let me say that this is one heck of a story!! It grabbed me as hard as John Hart grabbed Jack in that alleyway, and didn't let me go til I found the last written word -- you weave a compelling story line -- you have nailed the character personalities, and then with Jack, you've twisted his like a pretzel -- you have an amazing gift for story-telling, for pulling your readers in and then dragging them thru hell as we travel your story line. I honestly cannot wait to read what else you've written.
Thank you for taking the time to share your fic with me, and I hope you write many, many more about Jack & Ianto. This is an awesome story!!!
