Fic Of The Week - Week Fourteen

[badly_knitted]

Fic number 2 last week was a bit gory, wasn't it? I spent most of the time worrying about Ianto. Still, everything worked out alright in the end. I'll admit I shed quite a few tears over The Ghost And Mr. Jones, such a beautiful story.

On to this week. First off, apologies to those of you who aren't fans of mpreg, because that's what this week's fic is. Sorry =S It was bound to happen at some point. (Yes, I know there was already an mpreg Fic of the Week, but that was Dragon-Verse which makes it a different matter for some reason I'm not entirely clear on, but in my head it makes sense.)

So, this week I bring you A New Life by zephyr592 . This one is 15 chapters in 17 parts and was originally posted in June 2008. Like I said, it's mpreg, so if you don't like, don't read this one - I'll make it up to you next week. Hopefully.

Summary: Jack and Ianto are in a loving relationship, but will something happen to break them apart?

It's rated FRAO (whatever that stands for), but from previous experience I'd say that equates to NC-17 - grown-up stuff, there may be smut (we can hope!) And that, of course, is all I know because I haven't read it yet either.

First chapter is here: http://zephyr592.livejournal.com/541.html but chapters are NOT linked. They are in consecutive entries though, so clicking 'Next Entry' will get you the next chapter. If anyone gets stuck, just ask and I'll post the rest of the links in the comments.

Those of you who enjoy mpreg as much as I do - Happy Reading!

Hey jean, just sent you an email, I have been so sick.

What is an mpreg? Man pregnant? I have read one before, not TW. It was interesting. Not sure how I would like this one, but will probably check it out. :)

Pregnant Jack in this case, lol! I love Torchwood - the only show where men getting pregnant seems perfectly logical!

*gentle fluffy hugs*

Pregnant Jack. That has got to be hysterical....where does the baby come out?...don't answer that. LOL! :D

Don't know yet, haven't got to that point! Probably a caesarian though, I think that's usually the case with mpreg!

[debmommy22]

Oh! Caesarian! Thank goodness! LOL! :D

I'm reading a littl of it right now when I got your email. I am curious, so reading some of Chapt. 2. I want to go back and read the romantic Chapt. 1. I used to do that with books. I would practically read the ending and go back. Rather silly I know.

I try to be strict with myself - start at the beginning, stop when I get to the end - but I sometimes skim a bit of a fic to decide if it's going to be worth reading. If I think it is, I go back to the start and read it properly. That's just me though, I think everyone has their own method!

[debmommy22]

I'm going to go back. I just read all of Chapt. 2, saw some of 3 and oh poor Jack. This is not like Ianto at all. I'm glad to know it gets better in Chapt. 7.

Just finished reading the story and it was terrific! Thanks for recommending it!!

Glad you enjoyed it! I only had time for 3 chapters yesterday, so I'm hoping to read a few more today. I'm a slow reader and I had other things that needed doing yesterday.
