Title: The Story With No Ending
Fandom: Torchwood
Subject: Jack/Ianto
Notes: Made for

singustosleep's February challenge: OTP and stars. This fanmix has been in the making for months, ever since I listened to I'm Yours Tonight for the first time. I always thought Ianto is the best and funniest part of Torchwood, despite all of his angst in S1. And Jack is, well, Jack. I couldn't help falling for their unlikely but adorable love story.

01. Cardiff (Stone Sour)
I reach into the dark
I tear this other me apart
How many years ago
How many deaths I can't let go
My flesh is temporary

02. The World We Live In (The Killers)
This is world that we live in
I feel myself get tired
...
Well maybe I was mistaken
I heard a rumor that you quit this day and age

03. Fashion Coat (The National)
In a fashion coat I float down my city
Don't you think I look pretty anymore
...
I die fast in this city
Outside I die slow

04. Big Machine (Goo Goo Dolls)
Still in love with all your sins
Where you stop and I begin
And I'll be waiting
Living like a house on fire

05. I'm Yours Tonight (The Academy Is...)
Forever alone until I found you
And now you're always there
Voice on the air
Scent on my clothes
Oh, but when the sun exposes all my demons
Will you stay or run away?

06. The Repudiated Immortals (Of Montreal)
But I can’t get used to feeling cold
I can’t get used to what has happened here to you and me
There’s no escaping so I won’t try
It’s just the heaviness that comes with knowing you will never die

07. Sleepy Tigers (Her Space Holiday)
The heat will help us forget everything
That you and I, that you and I have seen
...
And if I've learned anything at all
In this short life of mine, it's this
If you hear that joy has come to town
Track it down, take a picture and tape it to your eyes

08. I'm Yours (The Script)
You touch these tired eyes of mine
And map my face out line by line
And somehow growing old feels fine

09. No Ending (Delays)
The air is thin and hard to breath
With sweetness that you lost to me
Despite the noose around that kiss
I try to tell myself this is
No ending

10. Live To Tell The Tale (Passion Pit)
Whatever happens to me,
I hope that I'll fall asleep
Knowing that you'll always be
The story with no ending
