Drabble: Final Anniversary

[bk_forever]

Title: Final Anniversary

Author: badly_knitted

Characters: Ianto, mentions Lisa

Rating: PG

Written For: Challenge 327 – Anniversary at tw100

Spoilers: Cyberwoman, Doctor Who: Army of Ghosts/Doomsday.

Summary: Ianto tries to figure out the date of a very important anniversary.

Disclaimer: I don’t own Torchwood, or the characters.

Lisa was always the one to remember anniversaries; three months since their first date, six since their first kiss, a year since their first date… she treated each milestone in their relationship as a celebration. Ianto had laughed the first time, until she’d told him that he made her so happy, she wanted to celebrate everything.

What Lisa wanted, Lisa got, because she made him feel that way too.

But Lisa’s gone, and now Ianto has to figure out the most important anniversary himself. Did she die a year ago at Canary Wharf, or seven months later at the Hub?

The End

That would be a very hard decision to make...poor Ianto.

[bk_forever]

Almost impossible, I think. I guess he'll end up commemorating both events in a suitable fashion.

Thank you.

Very moving.

[bk_forever]

Thasnk you. I wanted to do something a bit different for 'Anniversary'.

Wow...he should talk to Jack, even though it could bring up trauma for Jack. In fairness, I'd say Canary Wharf; I wouldn't want to remember a loved one mutilated into something not them.

One of your very best drabbles... :)

Thank you! I wanted to do something different for the Anniversary prompt.

Yeah, maybe Ianto should just consider commemorating Lisa on her birthday instead.

thats one very hard thing for Ianto to work out.

great but sad. drabble

[bk_forever]

It's an awful thing to need to work out, but you no Ianto, he wants to get it right.

Thank you!

Poor Ianto. He should remember the first day they met. Great work!

[bk_forever]

It's an anniversary nobody wants. He should celebrate her life on her birthday or something.

Thank you!

ouch - this is sad...

[bk_forever]

Anniversary - such a happy sounding prompt, but the first idea to enter my brain was this one. Very sad and angsty, poor Ianto.

Thank you!

[kul-breez.livejournal.com]

Well you got it just right - as always!

[bk_forever]

I think this is probably the best of the bunch, some of the ones for this prompt feel a bit forced, but I've managed 9, so YAY! One left to post tomorrow =)

*gulp* No matter which one it is, it's heartbreaking :(

[bk_forever]

Very true, and Ianto is not going to find it easy figuring out which is correct. I suspect the true date of Lisa's 'death' lies somewhere between the two.

Thank you!

So sad... *hugs Ianto*

[bk_forever]

*wraps Ianto in fluffy blankets* Jack will help him cope with the sadness of commemorating her loss.

Thank you.

*Sniffle*
She died at Canary Wharf. His hope died months later at the Hub.
*Hugs Ianto tightly before passing him over to Jack for more comfort.*

[bk_forever]

Jack will snuggle Ianto through this difficult time.

Thank you.
