It was like looking in a mirror, only not quite, because his ‘reflection’ was the wrong way round.

“You’re me!” they both said at the same time, with equally startled, confused expressions on their identical faces.

“Fuck!” said Owen in disgust. “Two Teaboys; that’s all we need! One of them’s bad enough.”

“I don’t know,” smirked Jack, leering as he gave Ianto and his double a long, lascivious look. “I think the situation has some very interesting possibilities.”

“Jack, stop drooling and put your tongue away,” the Iantos said in unison, rolling their eyes.

“Welsh vowels in stereo,” Jack grinned.

OMG! dirty mind of Jack's! I'm sure he is thinking about a Ianto sandwhich!

[bk_forever]

I'm sure he is. Well, h can dream, for all the good it will do him!

Thank you!

[but_can_i_be_trusted]

Of course Jack would be pleased as punch, lol! The naughty-minded devil.

[bk_forever]

His imagination has gone into overdrive, lol!

Thank you!

[but_can_i_be_trusted]

Very welcome. :D I'd say he needs to work on that...but he wouldn't be Jack without the Naughty, lol. ;D Which means he wouldn't be nearly as loveable.

Funny timing, too, this coming up today. Before I went to bed, I made some progress in another amnesty fill for fandomweekly, and it involves Jack, Eleven, River, and implied threesome naughtiness (which I won't actually touch with a ten-foot pole).

[bk_forever]

Yeah, can't have Jack losing his essential Jackness!

Good luck with that! I haven't decided which challenge to work with yet, think I'll do my piece for beattheblackdog first =)

[but_can_i_be_trusted]

Boy, it's gonna be hard adjusting to the fact that I can't post stories for it anywhere but there until they say so. I'm so used to posting a story to whatever community it's for, to my LJ, to gaelicmalice, to tickettostars, and to Teaspoon.

[bk_forever]

I'm used to that with fan_flashworks, so I don't mind. I post direct to beattheblackdog too, because otherwise I seem to end up in an awkward juggling act of posting to my journals, then cross-posting to communities, and it gets a bit o_O >.< O_o

[but_can_i_be_trusted]

Yeah, that does get complicated. :-/ I could probably at least archive at gaelicmalice, because I don't have any members, so nobody'd be any the wiser, but I'd only wind up confusing myself and trying to remember whether I posted or not. As for the other and my own LJ, I have no idea who's there who might also be in fandomweekly, so I feel I better not risk it.

So I think I'm best off just leaving the completed ones in one of my WIP communities (of which I have a hell of a lot more than I care to admit, but at least it keeps me organized) until I know it's properly okay. *is very good at following rules/taking direction*

[bk_forever]

Sounds like a good plan.

I keep my unposted fics in a folder and move them into a variety of other folders (one or two per fandom) once posted. Even so, I still have over 200 waiting to be posted.Even posting 2 or 3 a day doesn't seem to make much of a dent because I'm always writing more. I've written 6 drabbles this week for tw100.

I'm pretty good at following instructions and orders too, and as a ex-librarian, I'm pretty organised when it comes to making lists and filing, lol! I have a checklist for use during posting, so I know where I've posted each fic to. I post something Torchwood one day, then cross-post to eligible communities the next. Doctor Who, FAKE, and BtVS fics get cross-posted on the day of posting because there are fewer communities to cross-post to.

I'm writing FAKE for beattheblackdog again, Ryo trying to figure out what being a couple is going to mean for him and Dee.

Two Iantos well I see no problem with that.

[bk_forever]

Neither does Jack. The Iantos are a little less sure. The new one has his own Jack back home, after all.

Thank you!

You can't have too much of a good thing. Haven't read next one yet, but sure it'll work out. Who can blame Jack for his hopeful thoughts? He wouldn't be unfaithful, as they're both Ianto - who no doubt has his own take on the idea

[bk_forever]

On the other hand, the other Ianto might feel he'd be being unfaithful to his own Jack. You know how Iantos are ;)

Thank you!

[black59.livejournal.com]

oh.oh.I feel that the imagination of Jack went into overdrive ...

But Ianto 2, it can do a lot for incisive, punchy responses; not to mention the efficiency!

"Welsh vowels in stereo," Jack grinned. I love the idea !! especially that accent.


If I understand correctly, this double is not related to an error machine, duplication; This and many real Ianto just another dimension.

[bk_forever]

Yes, this is a Ianto from another dimension. Jack loves the idea of having two Iantos, but the Iantos aren't cooperating, lol!

Thank you!
