Author: Emma

Characters: Jack Harkness, Ianto Jones, Andy Davidson, Toshiko Sato, others

Rating: Starts PG, but hey, it’s got Jack and Ianto in it!

Disclaimer: Oh, please. If I owned them, would I let some of those idiots write the scripts? And if I were making any money off them, would I be where they could find me?

Summary: Andy Davidson must embrace his inheritance in order to protect Jack and Ianto’s daughter Gwen

Author's Note: This is an AU where Gwen and Owen were killed by Gray. So if you want to know why Martha is married to Rhys and Jack and Ianto have a CP and two adopted daughters, you may want to read Evolution first
Author’s Note: The title is shamelessly stolen from Robertson Davies’s magnificent novel. It’s also an old saying: what’s bred in the bone will out in the flesh
Author’s Note:  Please note I’m still taking liberties with Welsh. Also, Rhys’s welcome comes from an obscure Irish legend that says if you give hospitality to a total stranger, especially one you suspect of being a fairy, you should greet them with words similar to those. It stops them from playing tricks

Part One is here; Part Two is here; Part Three is here; Part Four is here; Part Five is here
