Title: Silver Service
Author: a_silver_story
Chapter: 24/?
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, Alternate Universe, torture (not graphic)
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.

Everyone's fave OTP ensues. BOO YA!



Torchwood Index/Masterlist


FIRST PART | Chapter 1





































FIN







What a shit week it's been for me ... hahhh hummm ... BLOODY MUSES.

NaNoWriMo may be a failure this year, but never mind. It's the taking part that counts! *glares a muses for abandoning me*

Anyways, I'm back now, and hopefully on form!

The formatting went a little funny in the article, but it's not too difficult to understand what it says. Forgive me for not going back to fix it: I tried, I failed. It won't be my friend, and Photoshop has abandoned me so all I have is Word.

New fic later!

This was too cool for school. Thanks for posting today.

[charlotte3006.livejournal.com]

Ah wow, I love the newspaper style!!
Yet again I loved this update. Looking forward to more!

Don't worry; Nano failed me this year, too.
And *big hugs*, we all have shit weeks. I'm here if you need to talk about it.

[abby-juniper.livejournal.com]

Wow. That was AMAZING. *hugs pic!fic and feeds it cookies* I loved the way there was an article (complete with pictures!) and then the commenting ... the commenting was the cherry on the top, seriously! And the one where it was barely understandable (the "sik fuker" one)? Pure. Genius. It was all so realistic and you really get the characters coming through -- fantastic work!

[iceshade.livejournal.com]

WTF!? ::brain asplodes. again::
I haven't even read this part yet (I WILL THOUGH), but I have to say I have never, ever seen anyone put as much effort into their fics as you do. you win an internet. what color would you like it in?

umm, I failed nano too ::hugs::

[jacksgirleen.livejournal.com]

I have been waiting and waiting for an update, so I was thrilled to see this! I've just attempted to cook dinner while reading as I couldn't tear myself away from this... LOL!
I loved the way this was done, very true to life. I thought the article in particular was inspired, with the captions on the picture of the sandwich and everything - amazing!
Glad to hear Owen is steady, I just am worried about both Ianto and Jack now (and strangely Jack more than Ianto, is his brain ok?).
Please tell me there'll be more soon...

[aviv-b.livejournal.com]

Love the newspaper. The art is as much fun as the story!

[kholran.livejournal.com]

This is so great! Love the article idea. And the comments, OMG. "They just need to hurry up and save Ianto Jones." Damn straight! And the James Bond comment... <3

[jadis-88.livejournal.com]

Brilliant update! The style is awesome and the comments are so realistic &hearts

[rickman-101.livejournal.com]

Wow, this fic just gets better and better! It's a true EPIC! Thanks for sharing it with us :)

[lipi5-pilivh.livejournal.com]

OMG! Another community to save Ianto Jones!
I thought you said your muses had abandoned you... NOT AT ALL!!!
Your newspaper format and the comments at the end JUST AMAZING.
Already desperately waiting to continue reading the new fic later :)

[zsazsa4168.livejournal.com]

Brilliant! I'm way to lazy to go back and comment on all the parts I loved, but I'd have to mention "in happier times" is a favorite of mine, and I loved the thread between Ooooh, Aaaaah and Eeeee.

Looks like the muse is definitely back in da house. Good to hear. Looking forward to continued fic in future.

[mondora88.livejournal.com]

Wow, great idea with the article! The comments were so much fun to read. Just like the usual people who comment on sites like that! The pictures are fitting, too, just like scenes from the story. Great work, it must have taken hours and many nerves doing that with word... thank you! I'll just go and re-read it. :)

[amcpep.livejournal.com]

Wow! The amount of time and effort you put into making these fics so exciting to read is phenomonal! And all to keep us happy. This was fantastic, I loved the article and the comments were great. All the little details; the idiots, the supporters, the condemmers...just brilliant. And I have officially run out of adjectives to use without sounding overly gushing. :)

[frakkin-addict.livejournal.com]

Brilliant. I really enjoyed that. All the little details (like the deleted comments) really drew me into it. It was very realistic. :D

[chryssalys]

Wooo! Loved this. The article was the type of sensationalistic hype we see so often these days, and the comments section was perfect. Dead on.

[ainegriffin.livejournal.com]

That was great, very unusual. Always a pleasure to read.

[eleni81.livejournal.com]

This is a great idea! I can so see this happening if it was real!
Is Ianto ok though? After what Saxon did I wonder if Jack will even be his real self again! Can't wait for more honey *wink-wink*
Tell me something, which font did you use?

[a-silver-story.livejournal.com]

I used Times New Roman for the article and Courier New for the comments :)

[eleni81.livejournal.com]

Thank you! Now go back to writing or I will chain you to your computer!!!

[rosy5000.livejournal.com]

EEeee!!! A Silver Service update and in such a cool look too. :D Totally love the newspaper look to it. Especially with all the added comments. lol

Hmm... Emma's comment kinda makes me worried. Could this bring more problems from Ianto's past?

[harriella.livejournal.com]

This cheered me up on several reasons. number 1. You updated YAY!
number 2. the comments in some cases are hilarious!

This is not a saw movie! HAHA!

another chapter of sheer brilliance, i can only imagine the effort you go to when creating this written masterpiece ('fic' didnt seem to do it justics in this sentance)

heyyyyy

[artcanvas.livejournal.com]

we haven't met but I've been reading all your stuff and wanted to let you know that all your fic is really great and it just keeps getting better!
:D
keep up the great work!

Re: heyyyyy

[a-silver-story.livejournal.com]

aww thank you!

[coffee-n-retcon.livejournal.com]

Ummm... Silver? The comment asking for an action figure in shirtsleeves... Are you mocking me?

Very cool chapter. Unique!

[a-silver-story.livejournal.com]

I'm not mocking! I'm supporting!

[diggybear.livejournal.com]

Wow! Bravo for all the effort you put in to this. I love the newspaper style.

[artist4life925.livejournal.com]

Very awesome! Have you tried saving it as a pdf in Photoshop to save the format? Usually helps :)

[a-silver-story.livejournal.com]

my laptop failed and photoshop is lost!

[artist4life925.livejournal.com]

Oh no! You can reinstall tho right?

[fancieflights.livejournal.com]

This might be my favorite update on this yet. The article was not only a useful tool, but brilliantly executed as well. I love the comments at the end!

[hab318princess.livejournal.com]

That was utterly amazing... loved that a lot and the presentation is just wonderful

[missthingsplace.livejournal.com]

I have caught up, yay!!!

What an amazing fic this is and it was actually good to read 6 (i think) chapters in a row ... love the letters and this on-line newspaper format was just amazing.

[xennie-b.livejournal.com]

Very Cool :)
