commotiocordisFrom the summary of the upcoming Torchwood novel, Almost Perfect by James Goss:
Ianto Jones woke up this morning with no memory of last night. He went to work, where he caused amusement, suspicion and a little bit of jealousy. Because Ianto Jones woke up this morning in the body of a woman. And he’s looking just about perfect.
And Jack Harkness has always had his doubts about Perfection.
IS THIS NOT A FANFIC? Gender!fuck Ianto? Come on.
That's one thing that I didn't really like about the series. It's like they couldn't decide whether Ianto was the flamboyantly gay teaboy or the butch fighter type. The character's obviously a mix of both, but he was presented pretty much only by the two extremes--either making tea and running whilst screaming like a girl from the terodactyl or killing people and secreting away a cyber!girlfriend in the basement of TW3. There needed to be more bleedthrough.
And holy shit. It's 4 am. How do I manage to do this? I hate this laptop. Ever since I got it, I don't get more than 3 or 4 hours of sleep a night because every time I come in to go to bed, I've got to do/check something first and then I end up wiki!jumping or whatever until I'm so tired I can't keep my head from hitting the keyboard and finally look at the clock right before I'm about to pass out and realize that I've got to wake up in 30 minutes or some other outrageously short amount of time.
