Fucking hell, my sister just reopened this wound. Our fandoms don’t always intersect, nor our ships. But this one—oh, this one. I would have taken Ianto back the next season you know? I would have taken any dumb time travel/reincarnation/resurrection excuse. ANYTHING. Children of Earth broke my heart into a million pieces.
I wasn’t one of the people that sent tea bags to the Beeb, or anything. But I didn’t make it all the way through the next season. It wasn’t about the shipping, or all the dead Torchwood members, or all that. It just really didn’t feel like the same show. I could have enjoyed another season, and been bitter about Ianto throughout, but I didn’t even get that. I honestly don’t know where the show stands, but what’s sadder—I don’t really care.
Captain Jack, Ianto, I loved you through for your blips in time.
