meganlynn09I actually got to watch the episode last night! Yay me.
I really liked it and Tosh is probably my fave.
Icons not till Wednesday, where I'll have a burst of batches. And I owe some icons from a request that I've been very slow on.

Here's a gripe though: If they want us to think, everyone's a bastard for pitying Toshiko, THEN DON'T MAKE THE AUDIENCE PITY HER! I know I wasn't supposed to be thinking, that's not a surprise, when they were thinking what they did. She let it out that she's been sort of pining for Owen last week. They were bastards for thinking those things about her, but still.
It's why you don't go sneaking through the dirty laundry, you'll find exactly what you were looking for and you're not going to like it.
So, I'm not the only one that got a giggle out of Ianto's thoughts? I mean, the thoughts we heard from Gwen and Owen were great because they were to date, but Ianto's? It was like he was writing poetry in his head, it was ridiculous. But bless him for his thoughts at the end, "Please God not again."
I kinda really bought into what Tosh was going through. Even though we've seen so little of her, she was first presented to us, when we saw what alien tech she brought home, as someone who wishes to study and learn the context and culture of where the tech was from. It must be heartbreaking to have to go through some of the things they do. Although, she did break pretty easily.
I'd be in her position though, I'd be dying to study that tech, learn about cultures and all that jazz.
Jack was really pretty in the ep, wasn't he? I loved his scene with Tosh when he questioned her about her "heroic act". It was fantastic, and I loved the moment when you knew he knew what Tosh was doing. It was chilling actually, not to hear his thoughts.
I love how Tosh says Ianto's name, I think they should hang out more often. They're sweet.
But this episode actually got me on Tosh/Jack. I've been thinking about the pairing since "Ghost Machine", and it gutted me here. I may or may not have teared up at the last scene with him and Tosh.
You know, Jack keeps getting pissed at his people betraying him, and yet, he's not actively trying to stop them. It's a bit worrying that we're supposed to think he's the boss when he loses control, seemingly, of situations all the time.
I, shoot me if you want, may have liked Gwen and Owen's interaction here. The scene where he's thinking "Don't look at her" and Gwen's playing it all cool until her mind bursts with "Why the hell isn't he looking at me?".
But Owen was an ass to Tosh, I don't care if what she did was wrong, he earned a slap from me at the end. But I wanted to hug Gwen, because she was right, she couldn't judge Tosh and she really looked like she just wanted to give the girl a hug.
Or I'm still holding out for Tosh/Gwen, sue me.

With you on Ianto...his thoughts were actually what I'd expect given what he's gone through...I like that. And it killed at the end when he thought 'Please God not again'. IMO.
I'm not huge in this fandom, but I'm sort of liking Gwen and Owen...not necessarily as a shippy couple...but the vibe they have is just cool...and hot.
Also loved the part where Jack asks what a real boss would do. For some reason I loved the vulnerability of that. Wondering if anyone else out there noticed it. I may have just made that up in my head. *laughs*
Loved your thoughts. Thanks for sharing them. *grins*

Yeah, everything she was saying, made sense. She didn't seem too weak, just exhausted with the type of work she does.

Yeah, I think he tends to do that. He was joking about it, but you knew he was somewhat serious. I think he's pretty sick of his people doing this.
Are you famililar with Doctor Who? I didn't know you were watching Torchwood!

Date: 2006-11-28 01:59 am (UTC)And it's weird. I liked 9 better than 10 but I liked the second season better than the first. For some reason it hit me on a much more emotional level. IE...I literally laughed out loud during quite a few eps and sobbed during others. Very weird.
But then...that's me in a nutshell anyway. *laughs*

Date: 2006-11-28 02:18 am (UTC)I just find myself enjoying the second season better. I think a huge help for me was that I didn't get into shipping either doctor with Rose. It's made it much easier to enjoy the show for myself. And I needed a show where I could do that. *laughs*
