Torchwood

 

Stalking 101

http://tanarian.livejournal.com/18488.html#cutid1

"I can't help but think that you're in the wrong business, Ianto."
Ianto drew himself up to his full height. "My tourists are never bored. Terrified, molested and eaten, yes, but never ever bored!"

A crack fic containing a paranoid Jack, a suspiciously cheerful Ianto and Time Agent!Tosh. (and why isn’t there more fic with Tosh as a time agent?)



Nightrunner


I finally found where the yuletide nightrunner fics where hiding. I should have thought to check under L and F sooner.

It’s quite cute.

Torchwood - Ianto

Torchwood

 

Reach Out and Touch Someone

http://tanarian.livejournal.com/13683.html

This is a fic I read a long time ago and loved that I just recently found again. The idea is that the Doctor does to Jack’s phone the same thing he did to Mather’s (universal roaming? I don’t remember) so Jack calls Ianto. Set wherever Ianto is this is a brilliant fic, and quite fun to read.

 

Pocket watch boy

http://mhalachaiswords.livejournal.com/286944.html

Another fic in which Ianto is a timelord. I love the way it deals with what it would feel like for a timelord to be around Jack.

 

That Old Black Magic

http://paperclipbitch.livejournal.com/51353.html

A coffee fic. Snippets of Ianto’s life, each in the presence of a different kind of coffee. Longish but definitely worth reading.

 

Passing Notes

http://www.whofic.com/viewstory.php?sid=14463

The Master leaves post it notes for the Doctor around the TARDIS. (the post it notes are included in the fic)

 

This Is How The Universe Ends

http://googlebrat.livejournal.com/505772.html

Jack flirts with DEATH. And hold up the end of the universe by existing.

A Dicsworld/Torchwood crossover.

Torchwood - Ianto


Doctor Who

 

Decision

http://becky-writing.livejournal.com/57974.html#cutid1

AU. Jack/Professor Yana, Jack//Master. Jack has lived through everything and reaches the end of the Universe, and he’s ready to live though it all over again.

 

 

Torchwood

 

The Torchwood Account

http://plotbunniesinc.livejournal.com/6847.html

The first part of a series that looks at Torchwood from an outside point of view. This one is that of the drycleaners they use.

http://leofuller.livejournal.com/4673.html#cutid1

This part looks at the place they get the SUV services and upgraded.

http://leofuller.livejournal.com/5189.html#cutid1

This one is from the perspective of The Crown (the local pub).

 

A Torchwood Costume Party

http://bookwrm89.livejournal.com/5831.html

In which everyone keeps a secret from Jack, Owen talks in CAPSLOCK, and Ianto crossdresses.

 

But One Man Loved The Pilgrim Soul In You.

http://lannamichaels.livejournal.com/611975.html

‘Ianto has never believed in luck. If he survives this, he'll start.’

A great fic, it has been a while since I read it so I can’t really describe it adequately.

 

Three Lives, Five Kisses

http://lucy-fic.livejournal.com/160070.html#cutid1

The fic in which jack returns from ‘the year that never was’ to an alternate Cardiff in which Torchwood doesn’t exist. Jack/Ianto, Ianto/Owen

 

Dinner Date

http://lucy-fic.livejournal.com/163707.html#cutid1

this author writes very pleasant Owen Ianto interaction (pleasant to read, the interaction is snarcy as it should be) and written before second season came out and Owen proved he could be something other than annoying, which is something that mast have taken a lot of creativity/imagination.

 

The Next Time She Sees Them

http://audrarose.livejournal.com/119798.html

Gwen observes a moment between Jack and Ianto more personal than the last one she interrupted.

 

Access Denied

http://such-heights.livejournal.com/92835.html

Set as part of fragments, it deals with how Jack cut ties with Torchwood One and shows how Suzie came to work at Torchwood Three. It’s very convincing.

 

http://fodian.livejournal.com/20300.html

Humorous torchwood meta.  It analyzes, line by line, every conversation between Jack and Ianto in the first four episodes

 

http://electrictoes.livejournal.com/18481.html

Electrictoes has made a batch of icons that answer the question, Why Torchwood?

 

 

Of all of these (because I linked to too many) the best are

Nightrunner - Alec


Fire in the Sky

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2835364/1/The_Fire_in_the_Sky

The dragonriders fic that should be read on its own merits.

 

What Lies Within

http://community.livejournal.com/torchwoodslash/370539.html?#cutid1

It was made to read as an episode, but it ended up getting a bit long (for an episode, not for a fic). Well worth reading, the plot fits and everyone is in character (even the tentacle porn).

Dates for Manifest & Minifest

http://www.manifest.org.au/index.php

I think it’s the third item on the page.

 

 

Nightrunner

 

Hand of the maker

http://community.livejournal.com/nightrunner/47893.html

Haven’t read it yet, but this is the long one I spoke of. It’s set directly after Stalking Darkness.

 

Torchwood

 

Ghost in the hub

http://heretoutopia.livejournal.com/31911.html

‘Something's not quite right at Torchwood Three, but it's taking the team a while to get to the bottom of it.’

 

Post Torchwood Stress Disorder

http://smallwaldo.livejournal.com/58189.html

A fic regarding the survivors of Torchwood One, you can guess the rest from the title. (directions) There is no easy way to get to all the links (it has 7 chapters) but this is one of the simpler. They can be found in the reply to the sixth comment on this post, it has a picture of a gingerbread Dalek for a icon.


Supernatural

 

Fish is a four letter word

http://caffienekitty.livejournal.com/52680.html

Dean meets sushi. Sushi wins.

Personally I would have thought that Dean would be up to eating anything but it’s still a humorous fic.

 

SPN icons

http://community.livejournal.com/alazysod_icons/22344.html#cutid1

The icons are of quotes from a fic entitled “20 Things Sam Winchester Is Not Allowed To Do”

 

meta for Mystery Spot

http://spiderine.livejournal.com/286889.html

You didn’t mention looking for any but this is worth reading just for the last two paragraphs.

 

Bless the Oceans

http://apreludetoanend.livejournal.com/66386.html

Writen in september07 but quily relevant given what we saw in Mystery Spot.

 

Golden lights go dark tonight

http://pixel-0.livejournal.com/87494.html

I’m having difficulty describing this fic and doing it justice, but it’s endings and beginnings and really in character a scarily believable.

 

Reverse Polarity!

http://community.livejournal.com/lightontheblue/13092.html

Placed here to counter the angst of the previous fic, this one is really cute in places.

‘Dean thinks he's getting younger. As it turns out, Sam really should start listening to Dean more often.’(I used the first line as the summary, it works).

 

mayachain_recs

http://community.livejournal.com/mayachain_recs/

One of the better rec communities for SPN that I’ve seen.

 

 

 

I’ll link to more Nightrunner fic next time, this post it getting too long and I still haven’t learned to use fake cuts yet.

Nightrunner

 

The latest Japanese nightrunner cover art scans.

http://community.livejournal.com/nightrunner/70821.html#cutid1

I particularly like the look of Alec in the black and white one.

 

Nightrunner fanart

http://blue-phlox.livejournal.com/43849.html

Pictures of Seregil, Thero, Alec and Micum during an argument between Seregil and Thero. I love their expressions.

Oblivion

http://nhj28.livejournal.com/4851.html

Just a quick coffee fic.

 

Ianto at Work

http://fajrdrako.livejournal.com/852023.html

Part of Ianto’s work with the information booth is to answer stupid questions from tourists.

 

Ianto’s Desktop

http://community.livejournal.com/iantos_desktop/

An invaluable resource in the torchwood fandom. It gathers in one place all the cannon bits and pieces that can be found on the net after each episode, such as messages between characters, pamphlets from Torchwood 1 (on things like mind reading or paradoxes), access passes, photos and the Captains Blog.

Doctor Who - Tenth Doctor


Doctor Who

 

Light Bending Backwards

http://trolllogicfics.livejournal.com/25602.html

An absolutely brilliant, mind bending fic. Involves Jack, the Doctor and the Time Agency.

 

 

Supernatural

 

(this fic doesn’t have a title)

http://boonies.livejournal.com/180907.html

A gen fic in which Sam and Dean end up looking after a child.  Very, very cute. I would recommend anyone read it even if you don’t know anything about Supernatural.

 

 

Torchwood

 

Coffee Routine

http://samantharichter.livejournal.com/326174.html

Crack fic, in which Ianto doesn’t… yes, well.

Owen accidentally ends up in Jack’s head.

  

Just Saying Hi

Torchwood/Death Note crossover

It wasn’t in the way I expected but it’s done very well.

  

An Illustrated Life

http://overchay.livejournal.com/95985.html?mode=reply

A fic written in post it notes and other such things. Nothing spectacular but worth a look at.

  

Captain’s Blog

http://www.bbcamerica.com/content/262/s2_captainsblog.jsp

An official report from Jack after the events of each week’s episode.
Released a few days after it has aired in America, so that’s about two weeks late.

Nightrinner - Seregil


Nightrunner

The Japanese Nightrunner Gallery

http://pics.livejournal.com/alice_montrose/gallery/00031ayq

Picture 6 is the questionable one I was talking about.

Others of note include:

 8 (Madus)

13 (Lady Gwethelyn)

10 (Because it is one of the better we see of Seregil, in some of the others he looks a bit dazed.)

 

Torchwood

All the Jack/Ianto bits taken from one of the websites.

http://capulet-rose.livejournal.com/1606.html

Pay attention to entry 8, the comment has something to do with breaking the stopwatch while “moving a desk”.

 

A set of drabbles in which Jack proposes to Ianto.

The fist time I read this I didn’t get it, but I won’t say more for fear of spoiling someone.

Supernatural

These are the stories (in order I think) in which Sam gets the life he wanted and keeps in contact with Dean.

Half of them are winsest, but that means half of them aren’t. I haven’t checked it recently but from memory there’s a lot of good things in there and most of it is well labeled.

Torchwood - Ianto

Life on Mars/Torchwood

More Things Than Are Dreamt Of
http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3677618/1/

Back in 2007 DCI Tyler's investigation is taken on by Torchwood, who (unsurprisingly) leave him with more questions than answers.

(Sorry, I have too much fun making up summaries)
Slightly AU, doesn't explain how Sam got back or why Jack doesn't think Sam is the Master.
Possible spoiler in the fifth paragraph (the paragraph just above the seen change)



I was looking for the Heroes daily newsletter, does anyone know what the community is called?
