It broke Ianto’s heart to find Jack’s tin box of photographs tucked away in a desk drawer. It wasn’t being faced with the images of Jack’s previous lives and former lovers, that saddened him. It wasn’t the knowledge that someday he would be nothing more than another face in the collection, or not even that. What broke his heart was that despite the technology and archival techniques Jack had at his fingertips, the pictures were aged, cracked, and yellowed at the edges. Despite holding onto these mementos, Jack had not felt them worthy of protection against the passage of time.
