omg yes, it was almost better than sex (in fact, it was better than some of the sex I've had)
yeah, they could've played the dancing as a joke but the kiss was so achingly real that there was no room for denials after that. And he may dies soon, but man... what a last kiss!
And i have seen none of this show, Ihave no investment in the characters other than jack from DW itself, yet the power of this had me wailing. So intense. Wasn't it, so raw and realistic. That's what fresh, devastating grief is like, mindless and not pretty. Rhys is Gwen's long-term live-in boyfriend, who is just incredibly sweet and funny and understanding (and Gwen, the bitch... er. how are you about spoilers for the rest of the episodes?)
But I loved that the Jack/Ianto kiss was 'ignored' almost. I loved the fact that it was matter of fact. It was just Jack kissing him without big fanfare of drama. Seemed to mean more to me that way. Yes, in that way it was truly lovely and understated. But the shallow, horny fangirl in me wanted to see more, just a few seconds more.
and the "right kind of doctor" bit, with the tardis and Jack - Oh I was soooooo excited. Laughing in glee! Yes, I was flapping like a wounded goose, squealing loudly enough to scare stray cats on two-mile radius.
we still have Jack to realise that it's no longer Nine, plus he kissed Ianto - obv I with no knowledge of what's gone on before, but will that be what brings him back to Torchwood? Will it be self sacrificial or will it just be woe and not bonding as Ten. Oh God they have to bond as Ten! I have no words for how much I'm looking forward to Ten/Jack interaction. And whether Jack knows about Rose or not... or will Ten have to tell him (my throat seizes up from just thinking about that scene). LOts of people think it will be Ianto who brings him back but... see above on my answer to pushkin666 I don't know, it's going to be hard regradless, we all know he won't stay with the Doctor.
