A Matter of Time

[wiseheart.livejournal.com]

I've finished Chapter 6 and posted it to FF.Net:
https://www.fanfiction.net/s/11237183/6/A-Matter-of-Time (https://www.fanfiction.net/s/11237183/6/A-Matter-of-Time)

I've also started Chapter 7 and roughly planned out the rest of the story. It will change as I keep writing, it always does, but at least I now can see the end of the tunnel.

Excerpt:
Ianto hums noncommittally. He knows, of course, that Jack used to fly just about everything at some point of his unnaturally long life, from spaceships through atmospheric gliders to old-fashioned airplanes, but he never actually saw him doing so.

Unless one counted Jack’s reckless driving style that seemed to defy the laws of physics on occasion, that is.

“Well,” Archer says after a lengthy pause. “This was a very… educational little chat, Mr Daniels, or whoever you truly are. I still don’t know why I should take you with me to Rigel X, though.”

“Because I’m Torchwood; and you know that we always get the job done,” Ianto replies simply.

Ianto playing the Torchwood card there.

Thank you for putting up today's post! I haven't been feeling well and went to bed early and got up late--I'll preschedule tomorrow in a few minutes.

I think the driving style must have some connection to the flying==once a daredevil always a daredevil :)

You're welcome. :)

I think the fact that Jack can come back from the death didn't help his driving style, either.

I hope you're feeling better.

Yay for posting!!!

Unless one counted Jack’s reckless driving style that seemed to defy the laws of physics on occasion, that is. ... I do like that :)

Hey, that's a recurring canon event: Jack driving and the rest of the team holding on to their intestines.

Kudos on excellent progress! Planning is useful even if it seems to inevitably mean that the story changes under your nose... So Archer has prised some more truth out of Ianto -- good for him!

I try to make baby steps here - I don't think Archer could stomach the whole truth at once. Imagine a guy half your age telling you that he used to have wild monkey sex with your great-great-great-great-grandfather!
