Now I Have Seen It

[ithildin]

Do I need to tell you there are spoilers under the cut? Didn't think so.



I said to Casey earlier this evening, that from the before the cut reactions on my f'list, my bet was either Ianto or Rhys got killed off. I was leaning towards Ianto only because I wasn't sure people would be *that* upset if it were Rhys.

Now I know for sure, I guess my reaction is, it's Torchwood, it's to be expected. Sorry to all the Ianto fans out there, because I was pretty upset last year when Tosh got the axe, so I know how you feel.

Overall, another strong episode. Wondering how they'll get themselves out of this pickle, or even of they will. Maybe the end of tomorrow's they'll be dead or dying and Jack will be left to wander the Earth alone. Or he can hang out with Methos since they seem to have so much in common.

*Repeats.*

"I was one of those rare souls that actually liked Owen. I wept when he was killed the first time in 'Reset'."

*Hugs.*

It's just... like I also said, "I thought I took 'Exit Wounds' badly, but it wasn't close to this bad. Jack/Ianto meant--means so much to me." It isn't just Ianto, it's accumulative. I said it before and I'll say it again, "I have a limit to the number of character deaths I can take in a given universe, and Owen, Tosh and Ianto will definitely be one too many."

Bless you, yes, I did notice that line earlier. I wouldn't go so far as to say I liked Owen, but he fascinated me. I wanted time to explore his contradictions, reconcile his pain and see him gain some measure of peace and acceptance of his condition on this side of the grave. They stole that from me when he was shot.

Not only was his psyche interesting, but that body! {roll of eye with appreciation}

Sometimes, he was almost human, I wanted see that become more common. Sometimes he was a total arse.

I was sorry when he died. I had hoped he and Tosh could heal one another's pain.
