I *know* I must have read this before, but apparently I didn't comment. But better (much) late than never, right?
Loved this enormously, everyone is spot-on in their reactions, but it is Ianto who stands out (and Jack's reaction to him, of course).
Ianto broke off, looking down, displaying those dark eyelashes to best advantage. Jack knew he had it bad when he was noticing eyelashes. Clearly I, too, am a totally lost cause, because my reaction to this was 'But how could anyone *not* notice Ianto's eyelashes?'
He'd missed Ianto's sly humour, the dry brush of sarcasm dusted over Ianto's helpful manners. I *adore* that description!
"It's not that I wanted to die. I was terrified, just ask Tosh. She'll probably add that I was panicked and blithering. But I was more terrified of having it happen again. Being the only one left." I can't believe that this never occurred to me before. I mean, it's obvious that one reason Ianto becomes to attached to Jack is because he can't lose him, but that is not an issue at this point. I must re-watch 'Countrycide' with this in mind! Thank you - I love it when fic makes me think.
