Title: Thunderstorm

Rating(s): PG-13
Pairing(s): Jack/Ianto
Warning(s): Spoilers for Exit Wounds and Children of Earth Day 4 and Day 5
Summary: During separate times of grief, Ianto and Rhiannon go out in a storm to find someone else waiting, hurting more. The first part of this takes place just after Exit Wounds. The second takes place after CoE, but before House of the Dead. This was written for the prompt "Thunderstorm."

Brian has some realizations during Justin's showdown with Stockwell at the GLC.
So I'm not amazingly proud of this one, but I wanted to get my thoughts out that this scene is the moment that Brian realized that he's hurting more than helping himself by backing Stockwell. Also, does anyone else think of Fight Club whenever they hear Debbie say "His name was Jason Kemp"?
 

In 2.17, when Ben is in the hospital and Brian leaves Vanguard to go support Michael, there's a conversation in the hospital hallway. Brian says "Remember when Justin was bashed, and you were about to get on a plane, and you came here and you sat with me for three days, waiting to see if he was gonna live or die. If it wasnt for you, I never would have made it. It was because of you. You're strong enough for both of us." So I thought, What if Michael was already on the plane when Brian called, so his cell was off, so he never went back to the hospital to sit with and support Brian? This fic came out of that. I'm not incredibly happy with some parts of it, but enjoy.


PS. I halfway started a second chapter. Let me know if you want me to finish it! (Edit: Chapter 2 is up. Link to it at the end of this chapter)
