Summary: A collection of sentences about the Doctor and Jack's relationship. For![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
1sentence.
#01 - Walking
It was just walking, but it was just walking side by side, elbows bumping, and even though the Doctor's full attention was on Rose, Jack grinned to himself because he knew that he was affecting the Doctor, that he had a chance and more than a chance to "dance" with him.
#02 - Waltz
Rose wanted to see them dance, like she'd danced with the Doctor and with him -- the Doctor fussed, but Jack didn't have any qualms (of course not, he'd "dance" with most people), and she put music on and Jack proceeded to show the Doctor how to waltz like he'd never waltzed before.
#03 - Wishes
"If wishes were fishes..." he started, and Jack rolled his eyes, grabbing his arm and pulling him close, looking down into his face, and he didn't need to tell him it was okay to just wish, but he was never sure if the Doctor believed him.
#04 - Wonder
See, Jack knew there were wonders in the universe, but there were so many wonders every day, as many within the walls of the TARDIS as without, and he was honestly rather glad that the Doctor was always beside him -- some of those wonders were great, yeah, but pretty damn scary, when it came down to it.
#05 - Worry
He worried about Rose and the Doctor -- mostly the Doctor -- so he grabbed as many guns as he could, did the best he could, all the while remembering those kisses and the finality of them, and when he finally gave his life, he gave it up reluctantly -- he'd have liked just one more (or two more or three more) goodbye kisses before he died; but that was his only regret.
#06 - Whimsy
Jack sometimes hated the way the Doctor would take them traipsing around the universe, just on the whim of Rose, but he liked it, too, liked the look on the Doctor's face as he span dials and threw the TARDIS through time, loved the sense of wonder the Doctor still held for what he did, even after so many, many years.
#07 - Waste/Wasteland
The Doctor had seen sad things, so many sad things, but the saddest thing was the wasteland of time, the loss of the Timelords, and Jack didn't understand about all that, but still, he felt that Jack was closer to understanding than Rose (who had lived so long in such a bright, bright world).
#08 - Whiskey and rum
Rose wasn't so interested in the drink, but long after she'd gone to sleep, the Doctor and Jack sat there -- shoulders pressed together -- drinking, sharing, talking, just talking and drinking and sharing whatever they had to share.
#09 - War
He could feel the reverberations of the time war all around them, even if the other two were oblivious, and sometimes it was almost enough to close up his throat and choke him with tears -- but somehow, with the two of them, with Jack and Rose and smiling and flirting, he could forget it all for a while.
#10 - Weddings
"So, when's the wedding?" he asked, watching Rose and the Doctor, and only he saw the shake of the head when the Doctor said, "no wedding", only he noticed that the Doctor wasn't entirely light hearted -- neither of them would ever marry, but Jack had a feeling that the Doctor's reason was better than his.
#11 - Birthday
It was Rose's birthday, so they took the TARDIS to her home, and somewhere in the midst of trying to make her happy, there was a patch of happy for them both, too, while she and her mother had a heart to heart, they stood outside and looked down at the city, marvelling at the world so far back in Jack's world's past, and they kissed there, just a kiss, nothing more, and yet it was wonderful.
#12 - Blessing
The Doctor knew he was blessed, having two companions who he loved, who loved each other and him, who got on well -- sometimes, he was so blessed it was almost annoying, because he could never be alone anymore.
#13 - Bias
Mostly, the Doctor seemed biased towards Rose, but really, if he ever thought of himself "dancing", it would be with Jack, not Rose.
#14 - Burning
Jack hadn't really known love as burning, but when he knew that the Doctor and Rose could die, that love was burning -- he'd have given anything, so many times over, in the course of their adventures, to save them, and thank god they (usually) all came out okay.
#15 - Breathing
It was a shock, and it almost hurt, when he found himself breathing again, felt Rose and a whole lot of power waking him up again, and it hurt to stand and it hurt even more when he realised that the Doctor (and Rose) had left him behind.
#16 - Breaking
There was breaking up, and there was falling apart gently, and Jack was quite sure, after sex with the Doctor, he'd fallen apart and been put back together, because somewhere he'd gone from "so many people, so little time" to "so much to see, so little time", and that had to be the Doctor's doing.
#17 - Belief
Rose believed in the Doctor, believed he would always save the day -- Jack would've liked to, and in the end, he did, he just put his blind trust in the Doctor and went to fight.
#18 - Balloon
When he saw Rose hanging from that barrage balloon, he was interested -- when he saw her "companion", he was more than interested, he was captivated.
#19 - Balcony
It was hardly an impressive balcony, just a walkway outside Rose's house, but it was transformed to amazing because the Doctor could stand there and tell Jack all about things that had happened, all over the city, in places he could just make out below and around them.
#20 - Bane
For a moment, Jack was afraid that the Daleks would be the end of the things he'd come to love; their friendship, Rose, the TARDIS, the good times, but mostly the Doctor -- but he trusted the Doctor, and even if it was his end, he trusted the Doctor to protect Rose and somehow keep living.
#21 - Quiet
They had to keep quiet, even though it was one of the best things Jack had ever felt -- as if through the Doctor, he was touching and feeling every part of the universe, like the Doctor could -- it was amazing and it was too much and sometimes he thought they really shouldn't do it.
#22 - Quirks
It was the Doctor's quirks that made him so incomprehensible, and so much more worth wanting -- Jack wanted to figure him out, and since he wouldn't "dance" with him or Rose, well, he was going to try getting under his skin in every other way.
#23 - Question
He'd never answer a question exactly straight, or if he did he left you with more questions than you started with, he was at times ridiculous but at all times almost magnetic -- normally Jack preferred ones that were easier to understood, but he couldn't quite quit preferring the Doctor.
#24 - Quarrel
Rose didn't notice when they fell out, but then, she had never noticed them kiss, or touch, never heard them have sex; she was so twenty-first century human.
#25 - Quitting
Sometimes, Jack wanted to leave the TARDIS, even if the two of them were the best friends he'd ever had (the most attractive ones, too), because Rose didn't understand and the Doctor mocked him for the way his world was -- he couldn't quit, though, because they'd think of it as just moving on to find someone else to jump into bed with.
#26 - Jump
"Do you trust me?" the Doctor asked, and the two of them looked at him, and Rose laughed -- "Aladdin!" she cried, and leaned to grab his hand -- and Jack was left there, eyebrow raised, as the Doctor held out his hand, and then he rolled his eyes and took it with a disapproving mutter that wasn't at all sincere.
#27 - Jester
The good thing about the three of them was there was never an uncomfortable moment -- at any moment, one of them would make themself into the fool of the hour, but all in good fun; Jack liked it when the Doctor laughed at him, because he knew the Doctor needed to laugh, or he'd just have to cry.
#28 - Jousting
Jack confessed a love of all those old medieval tales and before he knew it, there they were, for once following a whim of his and not Rose's, and he stood there and watched, but although it'd been his dream to see that, his thoughts were simply of the Doctor.
#29 - Jewel
On Earth, precious stones had always been the most valuable thing in the world, the thing everyone wanted, or at least imagined having, someday, in some way -- Jack knew the real jewel of the universe, for the Doctor, was the TARDIS, his home, his comfort, his transportation, everything, really, and in some way that made it amazingly special to him, too.
#30 - Just
It was just for the time they were together in the TARDIS, and Lord knows the Doctor knew how short that time could be compared to all of time, and for being 'just' something, it was an awful lot of just.
#31 - Smirk
Jack had a smirk before (and after) sex that sent pleasant shudders down the Doctor's spine; in all of time, no one had affected him in quite that way, and sometimes, it scared him -- Rose was safer, but he was almost afraid that he'd never feel that spark with her as he had with Jack.
#32 - Sorrow
There was a sorrow in leaving Jack there, but the Doctor almost didn't want to face him -- things are never the same when you meet someone you love who you know should be dead.
#33 - Stupidity
Jack's was a kind of stupidity that the Doctor could deal with, irrational, human stupidity, but so full of empathy for others and with a kind of cleverness beneath all that which never failed to astound him.
#34 - Serenade
When the Doctor slept, which was little, he could hear Jack's soft snores -- hardly a serenade, and yet it made him smile.
#35 - Sarcasm
Sarcasm, as some might insist, was the lowest form of wit -- but they'd never heard Jack and the Doctor's multi-levelled games of teasing and taunting, which was all an intricate art form in itself.
#36 - Sordid
It might seem like a bit of a loose life, Jack had to admit, but his weren't the same reasons as other humans -- there was a whole two years of his life missing, and sometimes sleeping with a Time Lord (and every other damned being attractive enough) seemed to fill in that gap in himself for a while.
#37 - Soliloquy
The Doctor had a little soliloquy about how stupid humans could be, and if he was self pitying he'd say it, but they all had their redeeming factors -- Jack's was his wit, not to mention his looks, and sometimes his smile, and that spark of intelligence.
#38 - Sojourn
The Doctor had spent a lot of his life with humans, in one way or another, and he'd never met one as insatiable or confusingly in-love-but-not as Jack Harkness; the confusion was nice, once in an era -- kept him on his toes.
#39 - Share
The Doctor wasn't quite sure if it was him and Jack sharing Rose, or Rose and Jack sharing him, but either way, there was more love than he'd felt in a long time and some days he didn't think of Gallifrey and the lost Time Lords at all.
#40 - Solitary
The Doctor had had his companions, of course, but over time there had been gaps between them, and he'd travelled alone for a long time before he picked up Rose and then, soon after, ignoring Adam, Jack -- perhaps it was that long period of solitary existence which made him fall for them both so hard, but maybe it was because they were special, because they really were different to the rest.
#41 - Nowhere
For a while, even changed, become someone new, he missed Jack, the third member of the team, and sometimes he felt like stopping and just staying still, not going anywhere new, but the new Doctor wasn't as given to brooding and though he'd never forget the way Jack fought to the end, that was like a past life to him now, and he moved on quickly.
#42 - Neutral
Sometimes, he just wanted to stay out of it, stay neutral, for the sake of Rose and Jack -- didn't want to lose them, though all companions seemed to leave in the end -- but he just couldn't, with the Daleks, and he tried not to let it crush him when that one last battle of fighting for a side cost Jack's life.
#43 - Nuance
They never spoke of a love between them that caught hold of them because they had somehow made a mutual decision not to have each other (for Rose's sake) but it was there, hinted at in every little tone of every little jibe and taunt.
#44 - Near
They came close enough to kiss just once, before the end, and Jack could feel his breath mingling with the Doctor's, but somehow, it would be wrong to kiss him with Rose somewhere around, so he didn't, and he regretted it later.
#45 - Natural
It was just natural for Jack to sling an arm around the Doctor's shoulders and flirt with him, and soon enough, the Doctor was finding it natural to reply with a little taunt but that slight leaning of his body that meant he was comfortable.
#46 - Horizon
"They all go on about seeing over the horizon, in those history films I watched back home," Jack said, out of the blue, when they were just sitting together, doing nothing, and when the Doctor looked at him he added, "but here, there are no horizons."
#47 - Valiant
The Doctor was furious when he realised Jack was dead -- furious with him, furious with himself, furious with the Daleks; valour be damned, he needed Jack now that he'd sent Rose and the TARDIS far away.
#48 - Virtuous
Jack was hardly a morally sound guy, but sometimes, in his enthusiasm and laughter, and his honest love of life, there was an innocence which was almost naïveté; sometimes the Doctor wished he could protect that, not just in Jack, but in every one.
#49 - Victory
The Daleks were gone, and for once, the battle wasn't won by a Time Lord, but by a human girl and a young man; the Doctor knew that no one would remember Jack's sacrifice, but it had been important, buying enough time for Rose to arrive.
#50 - Defeat
Victory would have been more of a defeat if the Doctor had pressed that switch down; Jack laying dead to buy time for this, which would just slaughter everything -- it was a coward's victory which is always truly a defeat, and the Doctor was glad it didn't happen.
