calufraxStory: Everything I Know About the Earth I Learned from the Sky
Author: Sorrel
Rating: PG-13? (sex is mentioned, but only after the fact)
Word Count: 16399
Author's Summary: "I could take the pendant off, but I could never unlearn what I'd heard. The ultimate curse." Gwen doesn't even have a pendant to take off. She thinks, bitterly, that this is rather unfair.
Characters/Pairings: Gwen/Owen, Gwen/Rhys, Jack, Tosh, Ianto
Warnings: None
Recced because: This fic really stuck with me. When I learned that I was going to be reccing fics, I actually went and hunted it down again. It's a Psychic!Gwen story where, in the words of the author, "not everything is puppies and roses." It's set against a backdrop of most of Torchwood series one, but is obviously AU. Sorrel's Gwen is engaging and believable. The conclusion of the story is satisfying, unexpected, and unlike anything I've seen elsewhere. Enjoy!
" When she slept, Gwen dreamed in shades of blue. She wandered lost in a maze, a mantle of flame rising behind her, cold as ice, as the chill of a graveyard at midnight. She knew that she’d never get out. But if she could find the door, if she could close the door-
When she woke up, she couldn’t for the life of her figure out what the dreams meant. By the time she’d gotten out of bed, she’d almost forgotten them."
