This list was made in response to this request for stories where the characters are parents of older children (with an emphasis on Jack and Ianto being parents). It's tagged on Delicious under storyfinder:parenting. I tried to stick to stories where we see the parenting in the story or where the parent aspect is major plot point, and not just list stories where the characters have older children. Sometimes the parenting parts are only sections of larger stories, but I've tried to make a note of those.

The first section lists the stories in which Jack and Ianto have children together, or are raising one another's children. The second section lists stories where Jack has children and Ianto wasn't involved with the upbringing. The third section is theoretically about stories in which other characters have children, but in practice this seems to mostly mean Gwen, with one story about Ianto.

This list was made in response to this request for stories where Ianto's injuries are ignored or neglected after "Countrycide". It's tagged on Delicious under storyfinder:postcountrycideignoredianto. You can also find a more general list of post-Countrycide hurt/comfort under the storyfinder:postcountrycidejackiantohurtcomfort tag.

This list was made in response to this request for stories where Owen takes care of Ianto. I've put a star next to the stories where Owen's caring for Ianto is a significant plot point or comprises a large part of the story. It's tagged on Delicious under storyfinder:owencaringforianto.

This list was made in response to this request for stories where Jack and Ianto break up (not necessarily permanently). These stories are tagged on Delicious under storyfinder:jackiantobreakup. Although all these stories feature Jack/Ianto (one way or another), several of them also have Jack or Ianto paired with others, noted after the links.

This list was made in response to this request for stories about Ianto being retconned. It's tagged on Delicious under storyfinder:retconnedianto. The original request was for Jack/Ianto stories, but since there are some Ianto retcon stories that feature other pairings, I've since added another section.

I've separated the list into three parts. First, there are stories where Ianto is retconned after Cyberwoman (the main part of the original request). The second section is Jack/Ianto stories where Ianto is retconned, and the third part is the aforementioned other pairing section.

Flu season seems to have brought out a desire for readers to wallow in the discomfort of others. :) This list was made in response to this request for Ianto whump. It's tagged on Delicious under storyfinder:iantowhump. Not surprisingly, since the request includes a) Ianto and b) Ianto being hurt, this is another long list. I've put asterisks beside my favorites to aid the overwhelmed.

In case you're not familiar with the term "whump," it (usually) refers to hurt/comfort stories where the hurt is mostly physical, and also where the "hurt" part of the story significantly outweighs the "comfort" part. Used to be called "get" stories, if that helps.

I probably should have mentioned long before this that, while I don't put summaries and comments on these journal lists, I always include the author's summary (if provided) and sometimes add commentary on the Delicious bookmarks. One day I'll copy that stuff over here....

This list was made in response to this request for stories where Ianto taken by the Rift. It's tagged on Delicious under storyfinder:rift. As I so often do, I've split the list into two parts. The first part lists stories where Ianto falls through or is taken through the Rift and ends up in a different time or place by himself. The second list is for stories where Ianto goes through with other members of the team, or goes through the Rift after someone else.

This list was made in response to this request for stories involving Ianto's time at Torchwood One. It's tagged on Delicious under storyfinder:iantoattorchwood1. A lot of these stories--plus a few others that I didn't list because they either didn't deal with Ianto at Torchwood One or didn't explicitly reference his time there--are tagged under torchwood1 and also under backstory:ianto.

I split this into two parts. The first part will have links to stories that take place during Ianto's time at Torchwood One. The next list will be for stories that take place afterwards, but which reference Ianto's time at Torchwood One or involve his return to Torchwood One. Most of the stories are Jack/Ianto, but I've noted stories where Ianto is paired with someone else.

I've been looking over my backlog of storyfinder lists, and there are quite a few of them. Way too many, in fact, to post as separate posts in any reasonable time frame without spamming the journal. So, I'm compromising. Following is a list of Delicious tags to all the thematic lists I've made in the last few months and haven't yet posted here, with explanations of what was asked for. I will be making posts with the full list of direct links for at least some of the longer lists, but until then this will at least get the links out there, if not as prettily. :) (If you do want the links list, which sometimes has additional notes and information, check the original request post linked with each tag.)

Also, a note about the thematic lists. As I tag stories, I try to add new stories to the appropriate storyfinder tag on Delicious, but as yet I haven't found a workable non-time-intensive way to go back and add them to the links in the older journal posts. If a list is a couple of months old, therefore, you might want to check the Delicious tag to see if I've added any new stories. You might want to check the links to the original request as well, since my list is often only one of several.

If you're interested in the rest of the thematic lists, you can find them on Delicious under the storyfinder tag, and in this journal under the torchwood finder lists tag. (Livejournal tag)

This is a search that tends to come up a lot, so I decided to just go ahead and pre-emptively make a master list of Torchwood BDSM stories. Since most of the time the request is for Jack/Ianto, and also specific about who the Dom is, I've split the list into three parts: Jack/Ianto where Jack is the Dom, Jack/Ianto where Ianto is the Dom, and other pairings with the Dom indicated in a note. I've tagged all three lists as follows:

storyfinder:bdsmjackiantodomjack for Jack/Ianto stories where Jack is the Dom.

storyfinder:bdsmjackiantodomianto for Jack/Ianto stories where Ianto is the Dom.

storyfinder:bdsmotherpairings for all the stories with other pairings.

All three lists are consolidated under the storyfinder:bdsm tag.
