Title: Long Night's Journey Into Day

Rating: Explicit
Word Count/Length/Size: 36,514
Creator's Summary: Stranded in Cardiff by his Time Lord twin, the human Doctor must carve out a life for himself at a Torchwood still reeling from losing two of their own.
Characters/Pairings: Jack Harkness / Ianto Jones / Tenth Doctor (duplicate). Gwen Cooper, Martha Jones.
Warnings/Notes: Explicit m/m (and m/m/m) sex in this one, too.
Reasons for reccing: Another of my favourite Torchwood fics, though this one is a New Who crossover; and another one of my "wait, must get in Torchwood recs before February ends!" Basically, it takes place after Torchwood S2 and Stolen Earth/Journey's End, in canon divergence AU where the Tenth Doctor, instead of dumping the human Doctor into the parallel universe with Rose, lets them stay but sends his human duplicate off to Cardiff with Jack. Jack is still recovering from all the pain inflicted on him by S2 and before, and it falls mostly to Ianto to help the newcomer settle, while also trying to figure out his complicated relationship with Jack. Things ensue.
Sahiya's fics always contain tons of the kind of emotional hurt/comfort that pushes all my buttons, and this one is no exception, and delivers well on both the hurt and the comfort. The story is well written, characterization of all three is wonderful, as well as the supporting cast of Gwen and Martha, and I enjoy the development of all the relationships between the three main characters.
This is the first part of a series, but stands well on its own. A later part of the series also includes Donna Noble, Rose Tyler, and the original, Time Lord edition of the Tenth Doctor, but I do recommend starting with this part!
