tories about time travelling jack who visits ianto always break me a little inside, and this was no exception.
I think it's the eventual end of it. I mean, most couples get a "happily ever after" which basically means growing old together. That won't happen -- well, not for *both* of them -- for Jack and Ianto. We know Jack will outlive Ianto by a few hundred thousand years.
But there's something very sweet about the idea of Jack still remembering Ianto, and keeping him as a treat -- allowing himself one last visit when he really needs the company.
your descriptions of the TARDIS were particularly gorgeous.
