Silver Service Chapter 1 point 2

Title: Silver Service
Author: a_silver_story
Chapter: 1/?
Genre: AU, Romance, Angsty, fluffy
Rating: NC17 / 18
Pairings: Main Pairing is Jack/Ianto. Also includes Ianto/Martha, Ianto/Tosh friendship, Ten/Tosh, Mickey/Martha (mentioned)
Warnings: M.M, rentboy!Ianto, brief Het, Alternate Universe
Disclaimer: If I owned anything in this, I'd be a rich rich rich bitch. However, I am not a rich rich rich bitch so you may all, therefore, assume I own nothing. Which I don't. It all belongs RTD and the BBC, in case any of you didn't know. Now pass the retcon ...


Summary: Started as a PWP, but since it's me (sorry folks!) and I really can't do things by halves, it grew and grew and grew (and not in an innuendous sort of way). Doctor Smith owns a posh Cardiff hotel, and the respectable Sixth Earl of Boeshane is coming to stay - and he brings with him some very specific demands.

The story follows Ianto from being born, meeting Toshiko and them running away together to the city, right up until Ianto is taken to work in the Doctor's hotel as a 'service' butler for - you guessed it - Jack.

This chapter is quite bleak *sowwi* - but that's what good drama is, people! It makes you wish you'd never bloody bothered.

Don't worry - unlike some writers, I do believe in happy endings - for fiction, at any rate.

Vampire!Ianto Manips - inspired by Xennie_b

I was chatting away last night, when the conversation turned to the possible [certain] hotness of Ianto as a vampire and then on to xennie_b's rather fantastic '... of Blood' saga. (I'm only half way through Year of Blood, so no spoilers please!)

Anyways .... two manips (the first much better than the second) of Vampire!Ianto. Click to Enlarge [oh, boys! If only it were that simple ... ;])

JB/EM realperson! fic - just for the LULZ

Okay people ... get this:

There are people out there who read and write John Barrowman/ Eve Myles realperson!fics.


Rolling on the floor laughing yet? No?

Well, you will be ...



In celebration of this massively likely pairing, I have written my own JB/EM rpf.

Nothing needs warning other than the one use of the word "cock". If you include that use of the word "cock", that's two warnings. If you include the previous one, it's three.




"John Barrowman and Eve Myles - Love at first Zero-Chemistry-Filled Screen Test"



JOHN: Hello .... I'm Captain John Barrowman

EVE: Hello. My. You are handsome.

JOHN: I'm gay. I'm very very gay. I have a Civil Partnership and have never been sexuallly attracted to a woman ... wanna make babies?

EVE: If that's what RTD wants ...


[SIDE OF THE ROOM. KAI AND GARETH ARE LEANING AGAINST THE WALL, LOOKING ON AS JOHN AND EVE GET DOWN'N'DIRTY]

GARETH: [watches with frown] ... aren't they like ... in no way, shape or form compatible?

KAI: They'll work well together as friends, but romance ... I'd never have seen that coming - what with John being in no way sexually attracted to women.

GARETH: Yeah. [shrugs] Wanna go get a beer?

KAI: Yeah ... why not?


[THEY TURN TO LEAVE. SOMETHING CATCHES GARETH'S EYE AND HE HESITATES]


GARETH: Hang on ... did you just see that?

KAI: What?!?!

GARETH: EVE HAS A MASSIVE COCK!

KAI: Ohhhhh! Well that explains a LOT!!!!







... and so concludes my adventures into the world of JB/EM shipping, as well as realperson!fic in general.



N/B: I just want to say I have absolutely no evidence to support the suggestion that Eve Myles has a cock, let alone a massive one. I have nothing against the actress herself (though she did annoy me a little when she was saying bringing back Ianto would 'mollycoddle' the fans) other than the character she has to play makes me want to poke needles in cute puppy's eyes.

I bet _______ saved the screen caps for Lonely Nights - a Game for Us All

Okay .. I've got a game for us all!




Myself and griza were chatting on MSN, when we accidentally made up a little game. Now, me - being the genius that I am - forgot to save the conversation and lost pretty much the entire [and rather hilarious] thing.

Anyhoo .. the game is basically called "I bet _______ saved the screen caps for Lonely Nights." Basically, you fill in the blank of the sentence with a name.


Here are the caps. See how lovely and tight JB's suit is, and how little it leaves to the imagination ..
