Title: Feels Like The Cold Has Come Through
Author:

qafkinnetic
Rating: PG-13
Pairings/Characters: Ianto, Jack, Gwen
Spoilers/Warnings: Spoilers for Exit Wounds
Summary: Jack has barely spoken to Gwen, barely looked at him. Now they’re being left behind by all the spectres of the Hub, and all the things that are too close to mention.
Author's Note: Written for my "forgotten" square of

angst_bingo. I thought of the last scene first, and remembered I'd been wanting to do a Jack post-Exit Wounds fic for a while now. So this happened. Thanks to

writinstuff for betaing!

Title: Bittersweet
Author: qafkinnetic
Rating: PG
Pairings/Characters: Torchwood Team

Summary: A different take on what might've happened in Cyberwoman
Author's Note: I seem to be on a Cyberwoman kick these days. This was a speedwrite. I just got an idea.

Author:

qafkinnetic
Rating: PG-13
Pairings/Characters: Ianto, Jack
Spoilers/Warnings: Spoilers for Cyberwoman
Summary: Ianto and Jack react to the events of Cyberwoman. Ianto is a universe of hurt.
Author's Note: Written for my "consequences" square of

angst_bingo. Finally I've written a proper post-Cyberwoman fic! It's like a Torchwood coming of age thing.

Title: The Orange Bled The Blue
Author: nothing_rhymes_with_ianto
Rating: PG
Pairings/Characters: Ianto, Lisa, Jack
Spoilers/Warnings: Spoilers for Cyberwoman
Summary: She's well again, but things aren't what Ianto hoped they'd be. And happiness is a far off dream.
Author's Note: So I was reading another fic and suddenly I thought, "What if Ianto had been a bit more level-headed and had imposed a 5-hour lockdown when Tanizaki arrived so that he could finish fixing Lisa?" And so this was born. Title is from the lyrics of a Paul Simon song.

Title: Chasing The Starlight
Author: qafkinnetic
Rating: PG
Pairings/Characters: Jack
Spoilers/Warnings: None
Summary: Jack looks out on the lights of the city.

( Chasing The Starlight )

Title: Ichigoichie (One Time Only)
Author: qafkinnetic
Rating: PG
Pairings/Characters: Jack, Ianto
Spoilers/Warnings: None
Summary: Four first times for Jack and Ianto
Author's Note: Yojijukugo are Japanese four-kanji compounds that have a particular idiomatic meaning that cannot be inferred from the meanings of the words that make them up. 一期一会 (ichigoichie) literally means "one time, one meeting," but is often translated as "one time only" or "for this time only," or "never again."

( Ichigoichie (One Time Only) )

Title: K9's Lament
Author:

qafkinnetic
Rating: G
Pairings/Characters: Jack Harkness, Torchwood team, K-9
Spoilers/Warnings: None
Summary: The team go to Ealing to collect a dear friend's pet.
Author's Note: This story completely ignores and denies the deaths of Owen, Ianto, and Tosh, and also ignores the canon fact that K-9 left Sarah Jane. The title comes from a song by Chameleon Circuit (even though the song is about something totally different).

( K9's Lament )

Title: All These Nights Of Fucking Things Up Won't Leave You Clean
Author:

qafkinnetic
Rating: R
Pairings/Characters: Jack Harkness, Ianto Jones
Spoilers/Warnings: Warning for violence.
Summary: Jack wonders belatedly if maybe he should have come later, when the pain isn't so raw.
Author's Note: This was written for that-thing-from-that-place on Tumblr after a conversation about Ianto punching Jack in Cyberwoman, and for the "hurt" square in my

alphabetasoup table, because it fulfills multiple kinds of hurt. The lovely awabubbles has drawn a companion fanart piece here.

( All These Nights Of Fucking Things Up Won't Leave You Clean )

Title: Been Trying To Run My Heart Away
Author: qafkinnetic
Pairings/Characters: Jack Harkness, The Doctor
Spoilers/Warnings: For CoE and DW: End of Time, sort of.
Summary: The destruction he caused is no salve for his pain, but the Doctor's words are a start.
Author's Note: For the "planet destruction" square of my hc_bingo card. Excuse the random Greek mythology references in the beginning. I am a nerd.

( Been Trying To Run My Heart Away )

Title: It's Not The Same, Their Light And Yours
Author: qafkinnetic
Pairings/Characters: Jack Harkness
Spoilers/Warnings: None.
Summary: You wish you could change their lives. You wish you could make her see.
Author's Note: Written for the 'jealous' square of my alphabetasoup grid. Thank you to snarkymuch and writinstuff for betaing!

( It's Not The Same, Their Light And Yours )

Author:

Summary: 50 out of my 300 drabbles of either 100, 150, or 200 words. All drabbles are 100 words unless otherwise indicated. Each drabble was inspired by a single word prompt given to me by random followers on Tumblr.

Author:

Characters/Pairings: Jack Harkness, pre-Doctor Who Jack
Rating: PG
Summary: A man wanders the Universe with memories in his pocket.
Authors' Notes: Written for the "orphans" square of my

hc_bingo card. Title from Life I've Lost by Parallel Truth.

Author:

qafkinnetic
Characters/Pairings: Jack/Ianto, Owen/Ianto
Rating: PG-13
Summary: Ianto wonders if this is his brain’s new version of fucked up, falling in love with the people he’s supposed to hate.
Authors' Notes: This story is way, way longer than I originally anticipated. It also took me forever to write, for some reason. Thanks to

snarkymuch for betaing! The story was inspired a bit by this photo manip. This was written for the "rejection" square of my

hc_bingo card. It's more hurt than comfort.

( This Thing Is Built From Broken Parts )

Two short fics, both written on GIF posts on Tumblr out of sudden inspiration.

Title: 300 Torchwood Drabbles (Set 4)
Pairings/Characters: Any and all pairings, any and all characters
Spoilers/Warnings: Basically, proceed with caution. Lots of spoilers, not many warnings.
Summary: 50 out of my 300 drabbles of either 100, 150, or 200 words. All drabbles are 100 words unless otherwise indicated. Each drabble was inspired by a single word prompt given to me by random followers on Tumblr.

Title: And To The Pieces Of You And The Pieces Of Them
Author: qafkinnetic
Rating(s): PG-13
Pairing(s): Jack/Tosh, Jack/Suzie, Jack/Owen, Jack/Ianto
Warning(s): Well, sex.
Summary: Jack has slept with every employee of Torchwood except for Gwen.
Author's Note: So this plot had been niggling at the back of my head for a while. And then I listened to the Torchpenis podcast for Combat, and they commented that "shotgun [in the SUV] goes to the one on Jack's penis" and I knew I had to write this. Thank you to snarkymuch and various Tumblr users for beta-ing!

Title: The Two Halves of the Cosmos Are Tied By Golden Thread
Author:

qafkinnetic
Rating: PG
Characters/Pairings: (Characters purposefully vague)
Spoilers/Warnings: General spoilers for all episodes of Torchwood, Jack's episodes of Doctor Who
Summary: The Tale is told before Judgement can be given.
Author's Note: I'm very sorry for this insanity. I wrote this just after I finished reading Neil Gaiman's American Gods and I think it scrambled my brain.
This was written for the 2012

torchwood_fest for the prompt “Ever notice when someone tells you that you’ve asked a very good question, you usually don’t get a very good answer?”
Thank you to

snarkymuch, poisonedrainbows, ashleigh-k-spring, and remembering-budapest for being awesome betas and letting me know that my bizarre ramblings made a good story.

Author:

qafkinnetic
Rating(s): PG-13
Pairing(s): All pairings
Warning(s): Death, rape.
Summary: There must be fifty ways to leave your lover. Torchwood has explored far too many.
Author's Note: I didn't write 50 pieces. That would be too much. I heard the song by Paul Simon on the radio and plot bunnies everywhere!

( There Must Be Fifty Ways To Leave Your Lover )

Title: 300 Torchwood Drabbles (Set 3)
Pairings/Characters: Any and all pairings, any and all characters
Spoilers/Warnings: Basically, proceed with caution. Lots of spoilers, not many warnings.
