beccaelizabethThere's more than one 'John' in the world. There's more than one John in Torchwood. Even if you exclude RPS possiblities. I think two of them ended up corpses but in fic world that makes no difference. John Ellis from "Out of Time", John Tucker from "Everything Changes", and now spoiler John. Listing pairing as Jack/John is therefore of somewhat limited use.
I mean, granted, as far as we know John Tucker met Jack for two minutes in the rain surrounded by bright lights and the whole rest of his team, but if anyone can manage / in that situation, it's Captain Jack.
Slight tangent - we know Jack acquired the name at some point, it's not his original name. So, do you reckon he thinks of himself as Jack now?
I vaguely remember a Batman cartoon where he knew his hallucinations weren't really his because they called him Bruce. Whereas clearly he wouldn't think of himself as Bruce at all.
Do you think Jack's the Captain? Or something else? Or grown into Jack Harkness, like a married name or username or something?
