This episode was AMAZING. So much Ianto, FINALLY! He was so angsty and oh, the poor darling! Blinded by love! *hugs him* And the Ianto/Jack interactions were *marvelous* - first of all, my subject line, which just made me giggle. Then "I love her. Can you understand that Jack? Have you ever loved anybody?" Oh, my HEART! And then, OH THEN, the KISS OF LIFE! So swoonworthy! I looked like this --> O.O It was fantastic. Such a beautiful kiss - how Jack caressed Ianto's face and then slid his hand down to his chest - oh oh. *twirls happily*

In general, I don't care for Gwen OR Owen, unfortunately. And Tosh is kind of a nonperson right now - I hope they develop her more. Basically I'm watching for Jack and Ianto! Which is plenty for now, and I hear it gets much better. So! Onwards and upwards! :D

That was teh hottest CPR I've ever seen in my life, Anne. *fans*

Hee. You'll see more Tosh, no worries. She's quite awesome.

AND I AM TORN. I want to use my kissing icon, but I also want to use my Tosh icon. Sighs.

Hee! It's so wonderful to hear you say that. The (very vocal) fandom consensus seems to be that Cyberwoman sucked, but I enjoyed it (and have been feeling very alone for liking it...) for all the same reasons you did. Hurray for pretty angsty Welsh boys!

Tosh has a wonderful episode of her own in the season ("Greeks Bearing Gifts"), but she really is sadly underused.

YOU WIN FOR DOING THIS. GOOD ANNE.

I know! And, and, how broken he looked, and the bit at the end, when he comes in and his, like silent interaction with jack.

Also, I've said I love and hate them all, but apparently according to my friend the only reason I hate Tosh is beacuse I see me in her. Which sucks, but I have a horrible feeling she's right. Dammit.

But Tosh has two episodes I adore her in, wheee.

OMG! That video was GENIUS!!! OH JOHN! *hearts forever and EVER*

Wait... what?? That's... so bizarre! I'm glad I didn't know that so I wasn't prejudiced. If anything, I was prejudiced TOWARDS Ianto, and therefore he was on screen so I was all YAY!! Does fandom in general like Ianto or no?

Huh. Well, *I* liked it, a whole lot, and I'm glad to join you in that :)

JACK AND IANTO IS *flails incoherently*

It's like... I hear that in an interview Gareth David Lloyd compared their relationship to Batman and his butler. But with, uh, SEXY BITS. (no, he didn't say that second sentence. That was all me.)

This show is SO MUCH AMAZING, and you must watch through to the end. Because OMG.

And also, do you know what I am writing right now? Sam/Ianto crossover fic. The idea pleases me.

*flails right along with you* SO MUCH LOVE! I have been desperately wanting another canon gay relationship. I miss Brian and Justin! I hearts, I hearts so much.

I'm continuing with the watching, don't worry! :D

Ooh, Sam/Ianto! What an idea! Can't wait to read it!

Oh, honey. You're not alone. Anything where Ianto is the main focus is a GOOD THING in my book. *stands with you in solidarity*

Yeah, it's really weird. I mean, I've only poked around a little, but that's the impression I get. I DON'T GET IT MAN. What's not to love about dark angsty secrets and danger and betrayal and pterodactyls attacked cybermen and boys kissing other boys back to life?

But most people seem to like Ianto, which is, of course, just as it should be. I personally love him best when he's all deadpan and snarky, which he gets more chance to do in a few later eps, but angst and broken works well too.

Oh, HONEY. This pleased me to no end. :) Ianto was so much love in this episode! I love it for all the same reasons you did.

And to follow along [livejournal.com profile] ignipes, Tosh has another good showing in 1x12 ("Captain Jack Harkness") where it's 60% Jack/Tosh interaction and it is so much love as well.

Another good episode for Jack/Ianto interaction is 1x08, of which the title is a tad spoilerific, so I won't mention it just in case.

*giggles with glee*

Sam/Ianto crossover fic. The idea pleases me.

THE IDEA PLEASES ME TOO.

Um.

*cough*

Pleases me so much I have to break out the all caps?

The canon-ness of this relationship turns me right on. I reckon there should be gayness in more TV shows. It's so... AWESOME. And all I'm sayin' is, watch the last two episodes, man. Just watch. Then come squee at me.

I'm kinda excited to be writing a totally new pairing, and also shocked that it has a PLOT. Because it does. It was meant to be 'Sam and Ianto go shopping then do sex!' but it grew.

I'm totally loving writing it. Now I just need to FINISH it, and I reckon that I have a higher chance of doing so if I tell loads of people about it so they can kick my ass into gear.

Also, I need to register how much I am in love with your icon.

See, before that episode, I didn't know that CPR required the use of tongue. It's amazing what tv can teach you. *g* yes, that kiss really is most swoonworthy, as is the amazingly painful Jack/Ianto of this episode.

Also, look at my poor puppy! *points at icon*

You know, the Jack/Ianto went completely under my radar the first time I watched the season, but looking back at these early episodes as friends watch them, I can't imagine why I never looked at it like that. Jack and Ianto is just fucking beautiful.

And come on. A kiss of life? OTP!!!!!!!!

OK, I _know_ you're in the US. So how are you getting to watch Torchwood?!?

I just ordered a region-free PAL--> NTSC dvd player so I can buy the episodes from amazon.co.uk , is this what you've done?

Oh, my dear. How innocent in the ways of internet piracy! Toss me an email at starlight1013@gmail.com and I'll tell you exactly how to get them for free on your computer, if you have a relatively fast connection :)

Aww, that's too bad :( But yeah - that's how I'm getting it. There's a comm where people upload 350MB avi files of all the episdoes. It's how I get a whole bunch of my TV, actually.

P.s. I went ahead and emailed you, I'm going to give it the old school try anyhow. ;)

YES YES YES! :D

That really was the hottest CPR I've ever see.

Well, I never really liked Gwen, and Owen... well, I loved him at the beginning of the season, not so much now. Tosh is pretty awesome, and Ianto - I didn't like him that much until the last two episodes in which he was awesome. :D

Yay, so you keep watching?
