Since I know at least two TW peeps read this...

Tell me someone has written a fic about Ianto being the one who was all undead instead of Owen as was originally intended. Well-written would be preferrable, of course.

Because I need to see that. But I don't trust myself to write it if it's not already out there.

"You don't care about me. You brought me back for a code" springs to mind.

I try to imagine whether Ianto would've run away as Owen did (and mostly, would they've gone with the vomiting thing? Not very romantic). It's typical of Owen to rebel against Jack. It reminds me of people likening Owen to a teenager, or a middle child.

I guess if anything, Ianto would worry about whether his role in Torchwood was in jeopardy. Perhaps he might worry about how much of his importance there comes from being Jack's lover, if, he couldn't be that anymore. It's difficult to say, because there's only Cyberwoman and End of Days where we see Ianto and Jack at odds, and there were different factors at the heart of those conflicts.

If Jack had resurrected Ianto, it'd would've been a fascinating turnaround, considering Ianto had also kept Lisa suspended in a kind of death.

Well, foreshadowing one death in the team will always apply to all of them, forever, basically. So, to me it's silly to have it stand as it does with signs pointing to Ianto's death, when two others died before him.

Yes! I am quite sure that that was supposed to be Ianto's line. But like you, I tend to think that the running off thing, and the vomiting was probably written for Owen.

The code line just had to be meant for Ianto. The second bit? Yeah, written for Owen.

Re: being Jack's lover..after having written Tosh/zombiefied!Owen, I have to paraphrase what I had running through that: we do love with more than our bodies, and the mind can trick itself into believing it feels lots of things, a la phantom limbs. Not very relevant, but there it is.

And the Lisa thing...wow, yeah, dark and twisty waters we'd be getting into there.

Damn.

I just can't stop thinking about what not-dead!Ianto would have been like if we're supposing the second glove worked like the first--and how the whole life-drainage thing works when you're draining someone like Jack

Of course, I could just be missing something obvious as it's been awhile since I really looked at S1...

I wonder would Ianto have died for good when Jack died in Fragments? (wasn't that the first time he died after Reset?)

[axeslade.livejournal.com]

There's that. I was also considering, if Ianto would be draining on Jack the same way Suzie was draining on Gwen--would Jack be continually dying of a gunshot wound? (as I'm supposing the same death was supposed to happen for Ianto as it did for Owen)

Ahh, thinky-thoughts.

So, apparently some people have written it, and I fail at finding fanfics.
