Fic: Well Played (Torchwood, Jack/Ianto, genderfuck)

[hope]

Title: Well Played
Author: Hope (angstslashhope / hope)
Fandom: Torchwood
Wordcount: ~7,700
Genre: genderfuck
Rating: NC-17
Characters(s): Jack/Ianto
Warnings: unsafe sex
Notes: For the flashfic_hub inaugural undercover challenge. And seriously, cupidsbow deserves a co-writing credit for the awesome beta she gave this.

Summary: The first time they'd played this particular game, Ianto had wondered at what it said about their maturity. But the way he and Jack play it—play each other with it—well, Ianto's sure there's no universe in which it'd be considered juvenile.

Read on the AO3.

There's a 5 minutes later timestamp ficlet for this: http://hope.dreamwidth.org/1530931.html

So hot. I love games in stories. <3

[hope]

No, really? Glad to oblige :D <3

I think you hurt my brain. :-) I really like how much in control of events Ianto is - at times. And how quickly Jack goes from wtf to yay sex nao!

[hope]

Oh my god, you are SO FAST.

:D Yay, thanks!

[lorem_ipsum]

GUH.

:D Yay! I'm glad you like it! (Thank you for your IM too; I was out on the hammock drinking wine when you pinged me!)

God, you write the best porn. Everything always feels completely individual and new. When I write porn, I always feel like there's a little bit of "and here's the obligatory penetration bit" etc. but your porn is always a description of a unique experience.

And I love that we never hear Jack's reply to Ianto's question. :)

“You still have ridiculously big feet, you know.”

I LOL'd. Seriously, sometimes it looks like GDL is wearing clown shoes.

[hope]

Oh hurrah! This porn gave me so much stress, honestly. I was vowing to toss out any flashfic I was writing that got over 4000 words by the end of it.

So, seriously, so glad it worked!!

Thank you!

Wow, fuck. *fans self* I loved it, especially the way the two master manipulators worked each other. Also, I have the bad habit to not read warnings, so I was as surprised as Jack when I discovered that Ianto had a woman's body (and as pleased :D ). I also liked that you didn't explain how it happened, or how it apparently happened in the past.

Great work, thanks!

[hope]

Thank you! And I'm glad it was a pleasant surprise. I like to surprise like that, but suspect that there are many readers out there who appreciate a warning more than not.

Glad you enjoyed it :D

this was great! i've got to a stage where i won't read genderswap, genderfuck, crossdressing or trans stories if they don't come with a rec from someone i trust or aren't written by an author i trust. luckily this falls into that category!!! :D

i liked all of the delicious porniness, but particularly:

Jack's palm drags lightly down Ianto's throat, coming to rest at the base. “You should see the look on your face,” Ianto says, letting Jack feel the vibration of his voice, measuring the timbre of it as well; just slightly off. Not enough to notice, unless it's being looked for. Ianto is, after all, a consummate master of disguise.

and

He's unsure if it was going to be a reprimand or indignation, just knows he doesn't want to hear it. Jack's living, breathing proof of just how close someone can be and remain clueless when they're will to overlook what they're not expecting

[although i think in that last para it should be 'willing', not 'will'!]

they both seem very real, and also quite natural and embodied. i like!

yay you!

[hope]

Oops. TY for pointing out the typo! *fixes*

Meanwhile, omg hello you! Was not expecting you to read my TW fic. But yay, I'm glad you liked it!!

*beams*

[order_of_chaos]

Loved this.

[hope]

Thank you :)

[riverlight]

This is great. Lovely description, nice character development, and really hot. I really enjoyed it.

[hope]

Thanks! I'm glad you liked it :D

This is quality, original, smut. I love the way you leave it with clearly a lot more to happen. I'm sure there is a story, I think by Virginia Woolf, called Orlando, about a person who spends some years as a man and some as a woman, with no explanation as to why, or how. I liked that you left that open.

[hope]

I was thinking of Orlando when I wrote it that way, yes :)

Thank you! :D

[amand-r.livejournal.com]

Dude. Did not see it coming. Knew it was genderfuck and still. Did not see.

Oh, you and the truth and dare, and Ianto's big feet, and Jack's delight, sheer delight in finding Ianto like this. And breasts! Yay for breasts!

[hope]

Har! After all that discussion we had about the transition phase in genderswap, yeah. ;D

Yay for breasts indeed!! I'm v glad you liked this :D

[halftime1030]

this was so incredibly hot and emotional and ... wow. just wow.
Brilliant! :)

[hope]

Thanks so much! :D

[weaselett.livejournal.com]

*fans self* wow - just wow

that was just sooo sooo good

the game - ianto and *flails*

so much of the good :)

[hope]

*beams* Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it :D

[lv2bliberal.livejournal.com]

Yowza!...that was a spectacularly porntastic way to start my day. Damn, there are some great writers on LJ...and you are definitely one of the best. :-)))))

[hope]

Thank you! High praise indeed :D

[favoritedarknes.livejournal.com]

gulp...errmm, yeah *thud*

[hope]

:D Hi! Thank you!

[visionshadows.livejournal.com]

Wow. Um, damn that was good!

This was incredibly well-done. I did read the warnings and knew it was genderfuck but was still surprised at how it was done. I really, really enjoyed this a hell of a lot.

Thank you for sharing this!

[hope]

Yay! I'm glad the surprise still worked, even with the warning :D

Thank you for reading & commenting! :D

[todd-loves-mc.livejournal.com]

I absolutely loved this and it is going in my favourites to read over and over again.

it was spectacularly written and really beautiful. I'd love to see a sequel if you ever thought of doing one. I'd like to see Jack give Ianto what he really wants.

really really amazing and brilliantly handled.

[hope]

Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it.

[edibleflowers.livejournal.com]

Yeah, that was - wow. What everyone else said and then some. I particularly loved that it wasn't a convenient alien device that did this to Ianto, since that's almost a cop-out in this setting. And holy fuck that porn was hot. I'll be in my bunk.

[hope]

Yeah, the glee the transformation concept for this story gave me is what kickstarted it all off. I'm glad you enjoyed it. Thank you!

[amarin-rose.livejournal.com]

Oh. Oh wow. I love Truth or Dare stories, and Jack being surprised stories, and genderfuck stories, even if I *do* feel a little cheated, like Ianto's cunt does.

[hope]

Hahah. Sorry to disappoint!

Cheers :)

[twas-brilllig.livejournal.com]

damn....

[hope]

:)

[hansbekhart.livejournal.com]

**slightly speechless** Damn. You're awesome at that.

[hope]

*waggles eyebrows*

I aim to please!

[thrace-adams.livejournal.com]

Holy crap that was hot!!!!

[hope]

:) Cheers!

[lone-star-woman.livejournal.com]

Um... er... think, brain, think... wow.

They just toy with each other in such a hot, sexy, delicious way.

Yay.

[hope]

:D They do indeed. Thank you!

[thedeadcat]

I do believe my brain has become melted fluid and that I need to put the kids to bed and read this again. :-D


I apparently was sleep-reading when I read the genderfuck warning, for I had NO IDEA what that was ultimately going to wind up meaning. And lo, Ianto had breasts, and I was surprised and pleased because it was STILL IANTO.

And I would like to borrow your Ianto, kthanks. ;)

[hope]

*beams* I think he might be a bit busy for the forseeable future...

Yay, thank you!! I'm glad you enjoyed this :D
