Torchwood
Listened to Torchwood Golden Age
which is absolutely vicious about the British Empire and people who want to turn the clock back
and that is never me
but now I am feeling vaguely got at
because the idea there was a Best Day and the only thing you can do is live in reruns
when I have been relistening Torchwood for a While now
feels sort of
personal.
I, however, would not kill people to hit rewind
and have never needed the incentive of not ageing
just to stay indoors for years.
I wasnt impressed with Ianto and Gwen getting surprised by the creepy people being danger
but it was kind of funny hearing Ianto complain that if he wanted to get knocked out and murdered he could have stayed at home.
In the hypothetical situation one could intervene in Torchwood to make an AU where Ianto didnt die the way he did
you would still need to change *this* day as well
because this is the day that ate all his time.
It didnt make him old, it ate his possibilities.
Other Doctor Who audios have had similar things happen so I reckon that's what the screaming part did.
Thing is though that Gwen was right there getting chewed on as well, so hypothetically her getting to old age seems unlikely.
Jack must be so depressed realising the ending would have been the same with only him in there.
It's a good audio
but makes me feel like I should think of something else to do.
