Title: To Be & Not To Be
Written for tw100, challenge 186 - Arrows
Rating: G
Characters:  Ianto, Jack
Disclaimer: Not mine; Aunty B's and RTD's
Summary:   Ianto & Jack, day 5 CoE.

A/N: A drabble based on rewriting Hamlet's soliloquy, Act 3 scene 1 since that's what came to mind when I saw the prompt.

 

Outrageous are the slings and arrows of fortune. To have survived Canary Wharf and weevils, stoner blowfish and a sea of troubles only to die of an alien fart. He has shuffled off his mortal coil; no more will heartached dreams haunt him.

The man remaining must sweat and grunt for all eternity, must bear the Whips and Scorns of time, must endure the calamity of so long a life. He must bear the dread of never reaching the undiscovered Country. His conscience makes him cowardly, he turns away and runs.

His sins be remembered forever. Aye, there’s the rub.

Wonderfully done - you cover so much with so little words.

I really have to thank Willy Shakespeare for this. Its all his except the alien fart! (But believe me, if he was around today, he'd be writing insults like "your temperment is like an alien fart... unexpectedly released and stinky!"
