That thing? In the episode?

[taffimai]

So, I've been venting to 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 LOVE that.

And I'm adopting it to take home and comfort Jack with. Because otherwise at some point my RP Jack is going to damn well break all over his younger self.

Adopt away. :) Although I must say, the stayed-dead theory below is also incredibly workable.

I have a RP Ianto who is currently an emotional wreck thanks to that ep, so I understand where you're coming from.
