Torchwood Finder List--Time Travel Fix Stories

This list was made in response to this request for timetravel fix stories (not "fixit"s necessarily, just stories that altered canon events). It's tagged on Delicious under storyfinder:timetravelfixes. ETA: Some time after I posted this list, I realized that I had, at some previous point, made a storyfinder:fixit list. While there is, obviously, some overlap, the fixit list has a lot more stories than the "Children of Earth" section in this post, so if you're looking for those stories you might want to check out that tag.

I split these up into three categories. The "Children of Earth" fix stories were enough to merit their own section, and I decided to split up the other stories between fixing things that happened in canon and fixing things that didn't (for instance, going in back in time to rescue a team member who'd been sucked into a vortex, fixing something in the non-canon future, etc.), since I wasn't sure if the OP was interested in those or not. I've indicated which character(s) travel in time after the link.

Ashes to Flames by [livejournal.com profile] ivegotthemusic (Jack, Ianto. This is a WIP, but it does draw to a conclusion of sorts, so much so that I wasn't really aware that it was unfinished until the author posted a note saying that she wouldn't complete it.)

If You Pass Go, Do Not Collect £200 by [livejournal.com profile] paperclipbitch (Ianto, Owen)

Message in a Bottle by [livejournal.com profile] plotbunniesinc (Ianto)

I didn't list this one above, but I do want to mention When the Butterfly Dies by [livejournal.com profile] bassair ("Children of Earth" Spoilers). The author's summary says, "When one thing in time is changed, the world changes with it. Sometimes for the better, sometimes for the worse. But sometimes it just goes horribly wrong." It's an attempted fix that goes wrong rather than a fixit, but I thought I would link to it, just in case. (Just pay attention to the warnings.)
