You probably want to double check your post. All of Part 3 is in italics instead of just the last line of Part 2, and there are no tags, so a search for, say, Jack Harkness (busted) doesn't pull up Part 3. I was lucky; all the parts were easy to find on the current first two pages of your journal.
“Vorcarians, Vogons, Vorlons
Since I'm well acquainted with the latter two, off to Google I go... and realize that I should have known who they were, too. ::headdesk::
The important part is that the Earth was not saved by a skinny guy in a pinstriped suit and trainers. I mean, how ridiculous is that? He didn’t even have a lightsaber.”
Hee! Yep, totally ridiculous, everyone knows that the hero should be in the 21st century and wearing a greatcoat! ;)
Love all the banter here downwards: He grins again. “Hey, kids! I’ve got a Hub, and Ianto can sew costumes – let’s put on a show.” what with name-dropping Shakespeare, Queen Victoria, wistful Sarah Jane, and Martha who's remembering her adventure.
“Ladies, can we get back to the subject of modern theatre? I’m thinking we need a re-write of All’s Well That Ends Well.”
“Comedy of Errors, more like,” Ianto mutters under his breath.
Ianto gets all of the good lines!
Love Jack taking charge and the end of this section here:
“Oi! What about me, then?” Wilf demands.
“That’s why I need the cops, Wilf. You don’t mind being arrested for murder, do you?”
This is so Jack and Gwen (and for Jack a good thing, not so much for Gwen): They spend an hour hammering out plot details. Gwen actually wants a script for her part. Jack doesn’t know whether to laugh or to bury his face in his hands. Love what Jack says after that, too.
“Not to worry, Mr. Mott,” Ianto says, “I have a pair of handcuffs that I can lend. Very comfortable, they are.” Gwen snickers, Jack smirks, and Ianto blushes a fiery red.
Bwahahahahaha!!!!!
He also resolves to take Wilf onto the Hub’s firing range for some practice rounds. The finest weapon on the planet won’t do much good without a good eye and steady hands.
Remembering the scene with Jack and Gwen on the firing range... I can't decide if I want to read this scene written up or not! I suspect it would be comedy gold.
Courage and self-sacrifice are so much a part of him – many of the deaths he endured were deliberately provoked, to distract the Master’s attention from the Doctor -
Yes, I do completely believe that.
She never gets a chance. The man in the doorway goes very still, except for his widening eyes, which dart back and forth between his two visitors. “The Messenger,” he breathes reverently. “The Messenger and the Angel of Death.” Wordlessly, he waves them inside. Only when they are inside the sitting-room, and the door is safely shut, does he speak again. “Have you brought word from Him? Or are you here to kill me?”
EEEEEEEEKKKKKKK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *rushes off to Part 4*
