And he will look dapper doing it too!

Or, I know this episode was about Owen but of course I am in love with Ianto.


So, I think I would have really liked this episode if I just cared more about Owen, but I don't. And I got all unhappily confused when Gwen was in charge because I hate her. And because Jack was right there. (Is he being punished for the ridiculousness dumbness of bringing Owen back? If so, please don't punish the loyal viewers as well, kthx.)

Firstly, I would just like to say that I love love Ianto in his red satin tie. It is my favourite! I've been stalking it madly since episode one!


And um, making Owen the new teaboy was a bit random. But any excuse for silliness (and not silliness) is fine with me! Even if Jack is encroaching upon Ianto's territory.

Ianto, clearly not amused (OMG GARETH, BEST FACE EVER):


I know this is a total fandom cliché, but Ianto + coffee really is my OTP!


It makes me sad that Owen abuses Ianto's machine (hehe)! But Ianto was there and full of win with total nice but not overly emotional sympathy. That's ok, he and Owen are not bffs, and he's, luckily, not Gwen.


And he makes cute faces (OMG AGAIN, GARETH = &hearts)!


You know, it's interesting that Ianto's "It's not like that, me and Jack," comes after Owen accuses them of shagging and not actually dating, being in a relationship, having a commitment ceremony in the fall, is October good with everyone? I mean, he's clearly ok with implying all kinds of things about his and Jack's sex life so why protest before Owen's gotten further than saying basically what he said last season?

But with that said, this is Torchwood and this is Jack and these are Torchwood people. I think Jack and Ianto can declare their undying love for each other and move in together and enjoy mpreg and it'll still not be like that. Torchwood completely obliterates any like that relationships. I mean, even Gwen and Rhys, who are basically the committed couple in no way really have that. Gwen's not there (hi, last season's Owen and this season's Jack). So yeah, at least I still have fanfic, right?

But right, back to the picspam! Owen the teaboy is Very Cute (but this could possibly be because I have a thing for teaboys; Owen, on the other hand, was once compared to a rodent, so.)


I don't know much about Tintin (I can't remember if it's a French thing or the creator person worked on The Fifth Element, but I think one of the above is true), but I love Ianto's traumatized by Owen face:


Clearly, the real OTP here is me + Gareth's face!

Um, I didn't really pay that much attention to the rest of the episode (sorry Owen, I lack what they call 'giving a shit' about you), but I thought the Tosh/Owen was both painfully awkward and very sweet.

And, as always, I leave you with Gareth's pretty (but worried!) face:



So, is the Three in the BBC Three logo pretty and pink to a: better match Ianto's new magenta shirt, b: better match John Barrowman's personality, or c: all of the above?
