Random rant: Torchwood

Oh, God.

I just finished watching the second season of Torchwood. A friend of mine had been going on about this series for a while, and lent me the DVD box sets. I totally fell in love - a show that has lovable characters (Jack! <3 <3 Ianto! <3 <3 Owen! <3 <3), plenty of hurt/comfort, never forgetting the comfort part, and slash that's actually there, not just in the eye of the beholder! But dear goodness, the last episode totally broke my heart. Left a really bitter taste in my mouth.

( Spoilers for Torchwood S2 last episode )

Now, I'm feeling sort-of torn. I've got a tiny idea that could develop into a Torchwood fic, if I tried (set before the end of S2, obviously). The thing is, as silly as it may sound, I hate writing fic when I know what's coming for the characters, it's depressing, somehow. Bleh.

I guess I should start looking into the Torchwood fic already out there first. If anyone knows any good stuff, feel free to point it out to me. Preferably h/c, pretty much all pairings go, though I'm not that big on Jack/Gwen.
