There was no doubt that Anne Cavanaugh was a de Gray; she had the height, the honey-blond hair, and the sharp Norman features. But where Leonora seemed carved out of the finest ivory, Anne was more like plastic. A flawed copy of the real thing.

“Anne, why are you doing this?” Leonora held herself like a princess. “Where is Alexander?"

Jack set down his tea cup and smiled at Leonora. “Tell us.”

I shivered at the amount of power behind those two simple words. This was the first time I had seen Jack at work, and the difference between the lovely bloke who was going to marry my brother and the Swordbearer was absolutely staggering.

Title: Reunion

Author's Note: During my recent writer's brick wall (writer's block doesn't quite do it justice) I did manage to write something. This stand-alone was written for torchwood-fest.livejournal.com/. As usual, I forgot that livejournal and dreamwidth do not pick up the formatting in a .doc. My fault, I should have coded it properly, but, considering how many meds I was on, I doubt I could have been successful. Therefore, here it is. BTW, I do encourage you to go read the stories, especially the one written for me by tonjavmoore: torchwood-fest.livejournal.com/49611.html. She gave me a romantic!sappy!Jack that works perfectly, and an Owen that knows how to deliver a proper ass-kicking to a clueless man.

CHAPTER ONE: GWEN

Detective Inspector Gwen Cooper of the Cardiff Major Crimes Unit stared at the lights of the spaceport that crouched like a poisonous spider at the edge of the bay. Even the Christmas lights festooning the buildings couldn't relieve their menacing air. Maybe the earthfirsters are right and we should stay home and mind our own business. She realized she had spoken out loud when she heard her partner snort.

“We're not the stay at home types, Gwen,” Andy handed her a steaming cup. “Humans always want to see what's on the other side of the mountain. Or the galaxy.”

Note: There is in fact an old synagogue, rather beautiful, at 13a Cathedral Road in Cardiff. It's now an office building. The Jewish population of (real) Cardiff is small and in the early 2000s built a newer place consolidating several congregations. I really like the one on Cathedral Road, so I appropriated it. Sue me.

Note: Rabbi, rav, and rebbe all are variations of the same word but have different usages. In this case, Jack (and others) call the Rabbi rav as a sign of respect.

Note: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tzadikim_Nistarim. There are better sources. Google is your friend.

Author's Note: In my grandfather's day, like today, it was not unusual for a man to make a remark to a woman passing by. Unlike those of today, the abuelo's piropos were witty, funny, and daring. Si la belleza fuese pecado, no tendrías perdón de Dios, means if beauty were a sin, God could never forgive you.

Author's Note: I know this is taking longer than usual. If things improve, as I have every hope they will, I'll be able to get back to a decent schedule. Right now, between my "promotion" and the health issues of some of the older members of my family, it's been a terrific zoo, and I don't mean it in a good way.
