Weight of the Choice by myre ( JackIanto | Complete | 5200 | E )

Sometimes the only answer you can give is ‘Yes.’ So, Ianto says yes, and he says yes, and he says yes. Or Jack has a nightmare and Ianto comforts him the best way he knows how.

Don't know if this has been asked before, but favorite TYTNW recs?

Drowning Lessons by Orphan_Account (JackIanto | complete | 34414 | M)

The Valiant was where Captain Jack Harkness learned to drown.

Something Wrong by Mirrankei (JackIanto, JackOwen | complete | 4K | T)

After Jack leaves and comes back, something doesn't seem right about him. And it's driving everybody crazy. Written for espadas. J/O, J/I.

speak to me but not of fate (propinquity) by myre (GwenRhys, GwenIanto | complete | 17621 | Explicit)

There are many ways to get to know another person. There are drunken revelations, guilt-laden confessions, and, sometimes, simple conversation.

You and me in the war of the end times by Beleriandings (Gwen&Martha | complete | 2440 | G)

Martha met Jack's team once, about six months in.

I Won't Start To Crumble by BookWerm (Gen | complete | 1798 | G)

the best I can do (is know you) by DinoDina (MarthaTosh | complete | 1464 | G)

When Tosh and Martha meet during the Year That Wasn't, the romance is doomed from the start. And yet...

Tell the world that we're not finished yet by Beleriandings (MarthaTosh, Jack&Tosh | complete | 14858 | T)

Tosh had thought that when the Rift had closed again after Bilis and Abaddon, after Jack had come back to life and given them all his forgiveness, that things would return to normal. Or at least normal by Torchwood standards.

It’s only when she meets Martha Jones and the Doctor, and finds herself swept off to the far future, that she starts to realise that the end of the world is only just beginning.

Fourty-two Weeks by Eudoxia (JackIanto | complete | 4575 | M)

The Master wants to twist Jack's soul into something vaguely resembling his own and he's going to do that by destroying everything the immortal loves. Slowly.

[thetorchwoodarchive]

They lose Gwen and Owen in France. From there, Tosh and Ianto brave the breaking world alone.

“Her Hands” — DinoDina

This is such a good fic. Tish/Lois and perfect prose. It’s SO GOOD ♥️

Her Hands by DinoDina (TishLois | Complete | 2763 | G)

In which the Year that Never Was is over and Tish needs to move on; in which the 456 are gone and Lois is not the same person. In which they are drawn together, and everything changes.

We're Not Normal by fakingg_sanity ( JackIanto | Complete | 1595 | M )

“You’re not mad at me?” “Furious. But luckily for you, I’m willing to push that aside right now. We’ll forget about you leaving, about you showing back up, about your psychotic ex-boyfriend and about whatever happened while you were gone. And we’ll just… exist." Post Kiss Kiss Bang Bang. Jack and Ianto sort some stuff out in their own... special way.

[thetorchwoodarchive]

Jack has never been more grateful for the here and now.

Worship by bravetosh ( JackIanto | Complete | 3812 | E )

“I meant what I said before,” Jack almost whispered, and Ianto looked over at him. “About offices?” Ianto tried to smile, tried to pretend he wasn’t terrified of what Jack might be about to tell him. “No.” Jack gave a strained little smile of his own. “About coming back for you.” Jack tells Ianto where he's been. Ianto does what he can.

long road out of eden, lyaka; background janto, a different take on the master and jack after coe

long road out of eden by lyaka (jackianto | complete | 7100 | T)

Never is so terribly different from not now. But the purpose of having a choice is to one day give a different answer.

Jack and the Master meet again, late one Cardiff night, after everything has been said and done.

[thetorchwoodarchive]

Night That Never Was by xtricks (JackIanto | Complete | 3909 | T)

The night after John Hart rode the Rift out of Cardiff didn't exist. Jack and Ianto take that time for themselves.

Nightmares of Immortality by McParrot (JackIanto, Owen, Team | Complete | 55,838 | M)
