A little something I came up with today on the way to work.
Title: Temptation (drabble)
Fandom: Torchwood/Doctor Who
Author:
unfeathered
Character: Jack Harkness
Genre: Gen
Spoilers: Last of the Time Lords
Disclaimer: Not mine.
Summary: There are some things that need to be remembered.
The retcon’s sitting there on his desk, looking seductive and oh so tempting. But Jack needs to remember.
He needs to remember there’s a man called the Master who apparently has a very nasty tendency to come back from the dead.
He needs to remember how good it feels to be back with his team after that year on the Valiant; how lucky he is to have them.
And he needs to remember the Doctor, because it might be another hundred and forty years before he sees him again and until then the memories, however painful, are all he has.

(I just love that word. Whump whump whump. Ahem.)
I was referring more to the tendency of fic writers to whump him, or at least to explore the areas where you'd reasonably expect him to have problems after what RTD did to him.
I have a couple of things in mind (not coming out at the moment, unfortunately) which ignore parts of canon but whump him in different ways. Wonder what psychological twist makes that happen. You always hurt the ones you love.

LOL - great definition of Jack!
