A/N: Final part of ‘The Twelve Days of Riftmas’. This is it, folks, the final part. Happy New Year!
On the twelfth day of Christmas, Ianto had to admit he was pleasantly surprised.
After strange birds, gold bells, French girls, pipe-layers and bricklayers, frogs, turtles, cows, bewildered aliens and dancing pensioners, the steel drum band was a relief, bringing the sound of the Caribbean to wintry Cardiff.
Dancing around the Plas, held closely in Jack’s arms, Ianto reflected that all in all, Christmas was turning out to be quite pleasant after all. One good day made all the difference.
As for the Rift, it breathed a sigh of relief; finally it had succeeded in making its beloved Ianto happy.
The End

Date: 2014-01-02 05:02 pm (UTC)Yep, the Rift likes Ianto, it just has an odd and rather unsuccessful way of showing it - until its final attempt to please him!
100 words is not a lot of space to tell a story in, it forces me to be much more succinct than I normally am, but it's also a fun way of challenging myself. So, I'm aiming to post at least 250 of them this year, around three a week minimum, all different moods and genres, as well as longer pieces. I just want to keep writing as much as I can!
Happy New Year, I hope it'll prove to be a better one for you!

Well-done!

I really did have to let the Rift get something right in the end, just to keep Ianto from taking up permanent residence under his bed, or in the archives. He'd had more than enough over the previous 11 days, so a happy ending was a must. Glad you liked it!

Date: 2014-01-06 02:05 pm (UTC)It really was fun trying to think of something for each day, though a couple of days proved rather frustrating. I had a great response to the series, so I'm glad I impulsively decided to do it.

Date: 2014-01-07 09:43 pm (UTC)I didn't know what the end would be when I started these, but by the time I'd reached the Eleventh Day I realsed I'd better do something nice for Ianto before he really did run away from home.
Thank you.
