* Many, many fics, which undo (from the end of series 2) [[spoiler:Tosh and Owen's deaths]]. And an even larger raft of post-[[Series/TorchwoodChildrenOfEarth series 3]] fics which address [[spoiler:Ianto's death]] and [[spoiler:Jack's actions regarding his grandson.]] One large and vocal subset of these fans have even [[spoiler:[[http://community.livejournal.com/savecoffeeboy created a campaign and a website to coordinate efforts]] to petition The Powers That Be to bring Ianto back]]. Unlike the series creators or one main actor's comments in interviews, there are well over a thousand registered members -- with more joining daily.

This one has some basis as Ianto is fond of old timey stop watches, and Time Lords have the ability to hide as humans using a device disguised as an old Timey stop watch. This plot is often combined with a fix fic of the “Changing The Ending of COE” variety mentioned above.

* Within ''{{Series/Torchwood}}'' fandom, a truly mind-boggling number of Jack/Ianto {{Hurt Comfort Fic}}s involve the characters showering together--often not even romantically, but simply because one or the other is hurt and needs help, or is untrustworthy and has to be watched.
* It seems as if there is no one who ''hasn't'' written the "Countrycide" follow up fic.
* Lots of {{Fix Fic}}s were written after ''[[Series/TorchwoodChildrenOfEarth Children of Earth]]'', either changing the end so Ianto (and occasionally Steven) doesn't die, or bringing him/them back to life somehow. TimeTravel is sometimes involved.
