Torchwood fan wibbling

[rm]

Just listened to the Torchwood audiobook In the Shadows and man, was that ridiculous and satisfying.

But then! Someone had to go and link me to this: http://tinyurl.com/l8u2nu which arguably contains implied spoilers for Children of Earth that are really fucking distressing even if I've been saying for months that Ianto is not going to die and the rumour mongering is just the usual fan wank and drama.

Really, it's so ridiculous. Hello, I went through the Snape thing. I was ready for that. I'm only bummed his death wasn't more epic (snake bubble to the head? really?). But Ianto! Not my favorite character, but the one it would definitely break my heart to see go. I'd analyze that for you all, but it's so hardly necessary I'd like to pretend to keep my dignity on the subject, but NOW I'M REALLY FUCKING FREAKED. And can't, apparently, stop listening to really depressing stuff on last.fm.

Trauma!

I feel like it would be something along the lines of what happened with Owen, if that was the premise. I don't know...maybe not as terrible, though, as they're all different? Maybe one actually does something good?

Wasn't one of the themes of Children of Earth that they all sacrifice something? Or am I making that up? There could be some sort of reward for the sacrifice...who knows.

I really do think they'll keep Ianto on the show in some form, though I'm terrified of what possibilities that leaves open.

They all sacrifice something -- yeah... many many people in the know have said that. So Gwen -- it's Rhys, her baby or Torchwood.

Jack -- it's Ianto, Alice or Stephen


Ianto -- it's his sister, neice, nephew, Jack or himself.

See, the frightening thing is that I don't think it'll be Ianto's sister or her kids. Which leaves me with options I very much dislike.

For Gwen, I call Rhys and that she'll have the baby. And for Jack, I call Alice. But uh, can I not pick one for Ianto?
