“He didn't tell me.”

I turned back from the painting I had been examining. “You knew.”

Jack's request had sent me running from the conservatory, but not before I had seen the look on Ianto's face. He had looked worried, yes, but not surprised. Panicked, I had headed for the one place in the Gray house where I would feel safe. In the gallery, surrounded by my works, track lighting subtly enhancing the lushness of bloom and leaf, I could avoid thinking about the Talent I had buried the day I had buried my husband.

Summary: An apocalyptic cult is trying to hasten the end of the world but when Torchwood steps in, it finds much more than it expected. (Added later because I forgot) This takes the place of Dead Man Walking.

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.
