SuperWho Gen Fanfic: Return What You Borrow
I’m not okay with what happened to Jack’s wrist strap in the Fiftieth Anniversary episode. So I made up a reason for WHY it was there, and then I fixed it.
Warning: Slightly spoilery for the Fiftieth Anniversary episode of Doctor Who.

Jack tried not to fidget, keeping his hands firmly on the rocks glass in front of him and not on his empty wrist. Two years without the thing, and he still felt the vortex manipulator’s absence. Jack didn’t know all of what was happening out there without him, but he knew enough. That was why he chose this backwater bar, because it led the Doctor to him once, and maybe it would again.
The time dribbled away like the bright red cocktail Jack fenced with his fingers. He focused on the rounds of ice as they slowly shrank, rifling back and back through his memories, some darkened, some shining still. It mattered that the Doctor still needed him, even if only a little part of him.
Bless you for writing this. Hey, everybody go read this thing!

When you watch Torchwood there is a warning at the very beginning that some scenes may offend or disturb people, so if you allow your children to sit and watch it with you that’s your responsibility, it’s not ours anymore. We kissed, we held each other, we lay on top of each other in bed… and there were lots of complaints about that. Nobody complained that I was shot in the head four times, there were burning people in ovens, that I was stabbed by a mob of 50 people hundreds of times, and I was hanging dripping my blood in a pit. So that’s what confuses me, because you’re not complaining about gay sex, you’re complaining about two men kissing. And it’s 2011. And people say, “Well why should we have that on television?” Because the BBC have to represent the greater public — and there are gay people out there who pay their television license. For people to complain, that’s your prerogative — but you know what, none of them turned it off! They were just embarrassed because it put them in a position where they had to explain things to their kids or their family which probably should have been explained a long time ago.
John Barrowman.
Barrowman, everyone.
This is why I love him, and why I will always love him.

The fact that people complain about sex, while never complaining about violence is so very revealing about our society.

IF YOU ARE COMFORTABLE EXPLAINING “COUNTRYCIDE” AND “CHILDREN OF EARTH” BUT NOT SAME-SEX RELATIONSHIPS TO YOUR CHILDREN
GET THE ACTUAL FUCK OUT.

of all the comments to make upon seeing the sci-fi super base that is the Torchwood hub, why would your first comment be “it’s so big”? I mean it is, granted but there’s also a poorly CGIed pterodactyl flying around and I think that takes priority of comment
awabubbles: #it’s so bi-HOLY CRAP are those specials effects from the jurassic era?! GEEZ
also i’m laughing at the thought of jack leaving the vortex manipulator to unit upon ‘one of’ his deaths
because i’ve just got the mental image of jack creating a new will every time, and it gradually gets more ridiculous
like eventually he gets killed on a mission and they open up the newest one and it’s like
“to gwen i leave the contents of my shelf in the communal fridge, whatever it currently is”
“to owen i leave the stack of porn mags i bought yesterday on a whim”
“to tosh i leave this usb drive i filled with cat videos from youtube on a slow day”
“to ianto i leave the jar of lube, or permission to use the petty cash to buy a new jar of lube”
