caught between a rock and a heap of insane fangirls

[burntcopper]

On the one hand, due to CoE, I've been using a no-Torchwood filter list due to the insane amount of posts. on the other, I now want fic. Specifically resurrection/Ianto survived fic. and oh lord. how the hell does one go back over the several hundred posts since ep 5 aired and find the decent stuff? Not to mention it's been a good few months since I've even read the summaries for Torchwood fic so I think I've lost my ability to auto-skip the writers I know to be bad.

Clearly been spoiled by the nice non-insane niche of reboot Trek I've found.

Poking the Regents Park schedule and contemplating the tango lesson on sunday. Looking at the schedule is bad for me, since nostalgia sets in for the days I used to be able to stroll down the park and recover from a hangover whilst listening to arty-farty live jazz.

This evening, however, is Indian tapas at Imli on Wardour St and then Simon Amstell. I shall not dwell.

Imli is one of my new favourite places ever since stu_n introduced me to it a month or two back. I envy your dinner. :)

have discovered that though the 2for1 is a thing of beauty when there's 2 of you and you're starving, getting the 2for1 and 3 tapas between four of you is... we were still feeling very, very full for quite some time afterwards.

also, mmm, spicy squid and stuffed paneer.

I'd read Lady Razzle and Mellacita's first (the later is my favourite).

Fix it fics are a dime a dozen but those are the best I've read so far.

I find Torchwood House insanely pretentious but if you skip over their rather self indulgent "why I liked it" section they've had a handful of decent recs up lately.

There's a lot of live!Ianto fic out there, but I avoided the character in fic before he went belly-up, never mind now, so I can't really help! torchwood_house would be a good place to start, though (and I'd be amazed if there aren't specific comms set up already).
