some morning after thoughts
functioning on about four hours sleep here... but I woke up not being able to NOT think about THAT scene between Jack and Ianto during day three.
let me see if I can put the random thoughts into any kind of order.
The thing that made me laugh was the thought that that scene turned every one of those Jack has a magic cock fanfics on its head. I mean really people... think about the dynamics ... Ianto works Jack up with some angsty "did it hurt to get blown up" hurt/comfort foreplay, and then suggests they go off and make the most of the time they have left. So clearly if anyone's cock is magic...
We've said it before, but Ianto is the one driving this relationship. For all his "where do we stand? are we really a couple?" uncomfortableness... he's smitten and he knows it.
I was leery of the "I'm only gay for Jack" thing ... but GDL managed to pull it off for me with his acting. (Oh those eyes, Gareth...) Whether or not they're "In Love" (or how much) ... there is always the Lust for them. It's almost as if he hasn't even stopped to really consider those what am I really labels... he's just wrapped up on the awesomeness of Jack. (And I think to some degree the way that being in Torchwood lets him really be his true, slightly (or more than slightly) odd self. There's nothing more envigorating than a place where you can be just who you are, whoever that is. And bonus that Torchwood Three seems to come with sex as part of the employee benefits!)
Ironic then, isn't it that it comes back to unfulfilled passion in a warehouse. Last time it was the thought of Lisa keeping them apart. This time it was Rhys and his catering.
