[Email sent to Owen, Tosh and Gwen]

Owen, Tosh and Gwen,

I know this is the worst possible time for this, but the date is approaching quickly and there's no reason to postpone it any longer.

I've applied to and been accepted by the SGC project. I will be leaving for Colorado at the end of the week, and will spend a week to ten days in quarantine and having the final examinations before I leave for my post. I will be at the same location as Major Lorne, Col. Sheppard and Dr. McKay.

Jack was aware of this and had planned to place some mental blocks in my memory to protect classified information, but we weren't able to do that before he disappeared. I'm not sure what the best course of action is to take right now. I've been aware that a full retcon was a possibility, but I've been hopeful it wouldn't come to that. However, if the team decide that it's necessary I will abide by that decision.

I had also selected out some CVs for possible replacements for Jack to review, and will attach them to this email.

I realize that this is not the best time for me to leave Torchwood. However, you are all aware of my relationship with Major Lorne if not its degree, and we have decided to take this step in order to be together. I'm sure that's something you all can understand.

Ianto

Yeah, I can understand it. I wish you both the best, mate. The timing could be better...but I do understand.

I'm not going to advocate for a full retcon, because there's too much you know that we may need access to with Jack gone. I know - it's a security breach and a violation of regulations, but really, have I been great with the rules and regs lately?

Thank you.

Given the training we were given at Torchwood 1 I feel confident someone would have to be skilled at brainwashing to get past my barriers. I'd rather that not be tested while I'm stationed there, of course.

Do you still want to do the mental blocks, then? You and Jack were better with the retcon than I am, but if you still feel you need to block that information, I'll do it. Or I'm sure Tosh can.

Honestly? I'd rather not. Considering I'm going from one classified situation to another I don't think there'd be a conflict.

Understandable.

Alright. You've got my vote.
