Why this should be read: Yes, I've already recced a story by Salieri, but her work is well worth reccing repeatedly. This is a fascinating take on Jack, before we meet him in the Empty Child/Doctor Dances. Jack as Salieri writes him is gorgeous and rich and full of longing. It's perfect Jack, and the musing of space and time and morality when you're a time agent is chilling.

"At some point things came loose, seconds from seconds, minutes from clock-faces, faces from places, places from time. ...

Once the thread snaps, consequences cease to matter."
