"Basically he just kisses everybody, dies a lot and has a lot of feels."
ianto and jack most unhinged relationship development ever. ianto flirting with the boss while his half dead (all dead) evil girlfriend is hiding in the basement. unreal amount of hatred in the cyberwoman and then he tries to get jack killed then goes nvm and saves him. jack is like ianto we need to talk about how you tried to kill both me and yourself and how you still want to die desperately and ianto is just like actually sir i think we should just fuck instead. bro propositions his boss over the body of their twice dead coworker. and then is FLUSTERED to get asked out by the same guy. unreal.
sorry I will not be shutting up about Torchwood anytime soon but i just wanna point out how funny it is that there is very clearly supposed to be sexual/romantic tension between Jack and Gwen in the first few episodes and then halfway through the first season they’re just like “scratch that, actually, make him and the coffee boy kiss” and tbh? they were so real for that
live laugh love torchwood
as much as I love the torchwood fandom, it has a serious issue with its treatment of Gwen, specifically in fics. They make her out to be this homophobic, angry, manipulative person that doesn’t care about anyone there but herself. In the show she is nothing like that, she isn’t a perfect person, she’s made many mistakes but where on earth did people get the idea that she would hate ianto for being with jack.
I haven’t finished the series yet so if there are moments where she’s like that then feel free to tell me but I find that people just villanize her sm and then go and ignore all of the shitty stuff that Owen did. I must say, I hated when she was cheating on her boyfriend, that I can’t defend but people need to stop acting like she’d personally beat up people who work with her for not having the same values as her.
still making my way through rtd's non-doctor-who work. currently at mine all mine which is from 2004. one character says to another character "you should meet ianto." i (not welsh) (never been to wales) (only know like one welsh person) am like "oh ha ha like ianto from torchwood?" and then immediately shut that down like "ianto is probably a very common welsh name, the fact that my mind immediately goes to ianto from torchwood is just a sign of my ignorance/lack of interaction with welsh people." character shows up to meet ianto.
