That thing? In the episode?

So, I've been venting to [livejournal.com profile] natlyn for the last half hour about the utter impossibility of remaining sane after being buried alive for 1,874 years. So the only fix I can think of will now become my personal canon.

My personal canon? The Doctor finds out about Jack being buried alive: unburies him a week or so after he's buried, they adventure around space and time for a bit, and then reburies him in time for the 1901 Torchwood to dig him up, thus preserving the timeline.

I can see that interpretation, but I don't like it. I don't want Jack to be a savior. I want him human. Flawed and damaged and ... human.
