Fic Of The Week - Week Forty Nine

[bk_forever]

Bearing in mind that Christmas is fast approaching and I don't have a lot of free time, I'm going to just rec one short fic each week until the New Year, with the possibility of two for Christmas week. (There are several Christmassy-themed fics under consideration, so I'll probably make my decision at the last minute).

For this week, it's the turn of another fic by plotbunniesinc . Suspension is a post-Cyberwoman fic from June/July 2008. The summary sounds intriguing, to say the least...

Summary: Every decision made changes the future. For better or worse, Ianto wakes up in a universe where he never had a chance to hide Lisa in the basement – A universe where he died in the wreckage of Canary Wharf and somebody else went to Cardiff with a deadly secret...

It's just 7 chapters and an epilogue, so it should be a manageable length to read in a week. I hope!

The first part is here   Chapters are linked.

So, that's it for this week! As always, happy reading!

I forgot it was fic rec day.
I really want to read. I have no time.

I got sucked in by the summary and read the first two chapters, and this fic looks really interesting! Unfortunately I have to dash but you can bet I'll be coming back to find out what happens. :) Thanks for the rec!

(I boggled a little at the number of comments. Kind of makes me wish I'd been around during the days this fandom was so active--imagine having so many people to talk TW with! But then again, I probably would have been blindsided by "CoE" like so many were and left a broken person, so maybe it's just as well.)

I held off posting this lest I inadvertently spoil someone who was planning to read it right away, but I wanted to tell you how much I enjoyed this fic!

One of the reasons AU's are so fascinating is they give the us a chance to see what life would have been like had the characters made different decisions, and this took it the next level. I really liked how Ianto worked on his problems with Jack in the AU, and then returned home and used what he learned to move them both forward.

And the surprise in the epilogue was awesome. Everyone got exactly what they deserved. <3<3
