Not to mention, the only reason he ended up dealing with Torchwood in the first place is because they thought he knew where to find the Doctor 👀
also, another thing: everything that ever happened to jack harkness was because of the doctor after the first 35 years. EVERYTHING. none of it have would happened if the doctor hadnt 1) invited jack to travel with them 2) stolen the tardis and ran away 3) met queen victoria in torchwood house and caused her to create an organization dedicated to hunting him down 4) helped open the rift with the gelth in cardiff 1869. THE DOCTOR WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR EVERYTHING THAT EVER HAPPENED TO JACK: HIS IMMORTALITY. TORCHWOOD. AND EVEN TORCHWOOD CARDIFF.

THIS
There is one interaction that I think perfectly sums up Gwen as a person and it’s her conversation with Tosh at the end of Greeks Bearing Gifts.
She brings up what Tosh would have heard and rather than trying to excuse it or explain herself which Tosh expects her to do, she uses it to make Tosh feel less like she’d alienated herself. She points out the fact that her moral compass isn’t exactly pointing north either and while it wasn’t great that Tosh heard their thoughts, she doesn’t have any room to judge.
It’s one of my favorite Gwen moment because it’s just so human. Gwen is flawed and she knows it and she uses those flaws to show Tosh that everyone makes mistakes.
I really freaking love Gwen Cooper.
as much as I love the torchwood fandom, it has a serious issue with its treatment of Gwen, specifically in fics. They make her out to be this homophobic, angry, manipulative person that doesn’t care about anyone there but herself. In the show she is nothing like that, she isn’t a perfect person, she’s made many mistakes but where on earth did people get the idea that she would hate ianto for being with jack.
I haven’t finished the series yet so if there are moments where she’s like that then feel free to tell me but I find that people just villanize her sm and then go and ignore all of the shitty stuff that Owen did. I must say, I hated when she was cheating on her boyfriend, that I can’t defend but people need to stop acting like she’d personally beat up people who work with her for not having the same values as her.

Ianto and Gwen have the type of relationship where if Gwen complained about her boots being to painful on her feet, Ianto would offer to give her his shoes and she would reply with something like “I don’t think they’d fit, sweetheart but thanks for the offer” and then they would link arms like old ladies while they walked

YES THANK YOU
I love 10, I really do, I think he’s fascinating, but he’s actually the worst. He was rude and arrogant and selfish and hypocritical, he was not a good guy. Like yes, he tried his best to do the right thing but at the end of the day the way he treated the people who cared about him sucked so much.
I really think people forget about that because David Tennant is, well, David Tennant. He played the character so brilliantly it’s almost hard to see his flaws, but they are certainly there.
And that’s not to say the other regenerations of the Doctor are so much better, it is the same character after all, but people seem much more hesitant to criticize 10 than any of the others.
Hot take maybe but I need everybody to stop idolizing the 10th doctor just because they like David Tennant. The majority of 10 dickriders I meet are people who only started the show FOR David Tennant and only watched his seasons and 14s seasons. Not saying that's everyone but.. anyway 10 is so awful to Martha and I would feel the LEAST safe travelling with him vs any other doctor. He was so obsessed with Rose that Martha always felt like a second choice or even a rebound. No shade to Rose obviously, that's not her fault. Not to mention the whole minorly racist thing he had going on??? PLEASE guys stop pretending 10 is just this silly guy who travels space and time because he is NOT. I like 10s character and the way he's portrayed because his morals are so interesting but I do not just excuse his actions because he's played by an actor I like. Please. Guys.

I would also like to add that Ianto Jones is a bitch (affectionate)
I don’t know if he’s gone a full episode without rolling his eyes at someone.
His whole broken phone rant to Owen was so bitchy.
I love him so much.
ianto jones is not an uwu baby. ianto jones shot his coworker. ianto jones wrestled a pterodactyl in order to land a job with a top secret organization. ianto jones kept a killer robot and her conversion machine in the basement for MONTHS bc she was his girlfriend. then he fucked the guy that killed her after telling the guy he was excited to watch him die.
ianto jones is the ultimate example of 'beware the quiet/sweet ones' he will remember how you like your coffee and then two hours later try to cave your head in for something he may or may not be in the wrong about

Is it just me or is Kill Bill by SZA just “Kiss Kiss Bang Bang” from John’s POV?
Just me? Okay

Jack Harkness finds out his ex has been stalking him for decades and what does he ask?
“Did you see him? Did you see Ianto?”
Excuse me while I go die

It was a joke at first but I actually think he’s going to proposition any man who compliments the coat.
Oh my god.
Not Jack hooking up with a bartender just because he complimented his coat.
Nobody will ever convince me that he does not miss Ianto Jones every day of his life.

I was putting off watching Miracle Day (because as much as I love Jack and Gwen, the clear absence of Ianto, Tosh, and Owen is devastating to say the least.) and now I kind of regret it.
Gwen Cooper is a MILF. Like Gwen was cool before but shooting a plane out of the sky with a baby on her hip? That should not be this hot.

No because I was literally just thinking about this.
When Rhys caught them together for the first time Jack was literally talking about sucking dick.
She was smiling at him because he’s an idiot (affectionate)
Rhys watching Gwen and Jack talking to eachother while stressing about wether they’re fucking or not (thinking back on it now, it was probably the fact she was smiling at him too) while Jack is Casually telling Gwen about the time he sucked some guys dick and Gwen is like “aww you fag” is so special to me

Is it just me or the moral of the episode of Torchwood “Countrycide” just a slightly more fucked up version of “Demons I get, people are crazy”?

I mean, after the initial shock wore off I don’t think he’d be that surprised. The man did kidnap him and Barbara because they had the AUDACITY to walk into his TARDIS.
imagine Ian finding out that the doctor was youngest when Ian knew him. imagine Ian finding out that one was the equivalent of a rebellious teen. I would be hollering

Okay but like
People really saw an American actor in the trailers and said “must be Jack Harkness” 💀
Because obviously he’s the only American ever.
if they actually recast jack im blowing up the bbc like firstly coz i dont want characters from the old eras coming back like just make new ones. but especially because there isn't a single other person on earth that could play him like be so fucking real

Okay this is literally what I was talking about when I said that 14 is not 10.3
This man is nothing like 10, I will die on this hill

so i run hot and cold on the tenth doctor for a couple of different reasons, but something that fucking bugged me about utopia is his treatment of jack. why do you have to be a shitty ex? why do you try to act like you did nothing wrong, then sort of not really apologise? why are you so snappy at jack and martha when they discuss legitimate ways you've hurt them? and why, for the love of god, do you think it's fine to dictate who jack flirts with when you abandoned him on a ship full of dead bodies at the edge of the universe with a dodgy transportation device and then didn't even call? fuck you, actually.
