One more rec...

What with all the Torchwood squee, I thought I ought to pimp the best Jack vid I've ever seen:

Behind Blue Eyes by obfreak

It uses mostly Torchwood material (as well as a few snippets from Doctor Who), and my goodness she actually manages to make the show look good! I love this vid to pieces - not only is it a great look at the character and where he's at in S1 of TW, but it is also a beautifully crafted vid! I really think it is a must-see for any Jack fan.


Actually, since I'm doing the Torchwood rec thing, I ought to include this short TW S1 Jack-centric fic, since it is the perfect companion to the vid:

Absolution by a_farther_room

I love fic like this. It takes the flawed show and brings out all the subtleties that the writers often missed! And it's got *perfect* characterisations.

Thanks for the link! As much as I'm excited about Captain John, I'm still a big Captain Jack fan, too. :)

My pleasure. It's a gorgeous vid (and a gorgeous song!). Enjoy. :)

That vid is gorgeous.
Isn't it just? Mellow and melancholy - and also hard hitting. I had to share!

Thanks for the rec!
Totally my pleasure. What else is fandom for?

ETA: Not sure 'mellow' is the word I meant. Sorry, it's getting late here and I'm sleepy...
