Title: As I Sit Here, Pen in Hand, Searching for the Words…
For: TW100 challenge #136 – Fire and Ice
Characters: Ianto Jones
Rating: PG

He found himself slipping, falling, ice slick and fire hot. He didn’t know where he was supposed to put these thoughts, this man, these feelings he never expected to feel. It wasn’t that his reality was shifting. He was very much in touch with cold hard reality. But he was MORE now. More, different, not better, really, just sometimes as he watched, his mind wandering to places previously undreamed of. His fingers itched to explore, and his dreams became even more jumbled than before. Glorious and terrifying, this breathless new way of wanting, this unbidden desire he could not control.

...glorious and terrifying...

What a perfect way to describe falling unexpectedly in love.

Great description of Ianto's thoughts, the wanting to explore and yet being worried about doing so.

thanks! I'm sorta obsessed right now thinking about Ianto's early thoughts about Jack. Dunno why...

Oh, fantastic!

Glorious and terrifying, this breathless new way of wanting

I remember feeling the same way when I first met my late fiance. My entire world was changed in one single morning. I adore this!

I rather imagine jack hit ianto like a ton of bricks. So glad you liked this...and that it touched something real for you! high praise indeed.

Thank You. And that line was very much part of what I was thinking about when I wrote this, so glad to know it came through!
