If You Were In Charge

[haces222.livejournal.com]

I'm considering making a poll for what we in AGA would best like to happen to Gwen Cooper in series 3 whether it be death (and by what means) insanity or just plain kicked out of Torchwood or anything else your devious minds can come up with. What I need is suggestions to put in the poll so please guys

IF YOU WERE IN CHARGE WHAT WOULD YOU DO TO PC COOPER?

Easy, Retcon her back to school and make her take her GCSE's again. Then ship her off to Tibet.

[sleepyheathen.livejournal.com]

The Tibetan people do NOT deserve any more hardship than they have already endured! Have you no heart?! ; p

[f-and-a-fics.livejournal.com]

Send her into the rift back to before the wars when women were treated like objects with no substance... i think she'd fit in perfectly there.

[haces222.livejournal.com]

Makes me shudder even thinking about that time but you're right she'd be perfect then

[mr-i-jones.livejournal.com]

Use her as bait when capturing a hostile alien and "accidentally" show up late, so she gets killed >:3

[haces222.livejournal.com]

I wrote something similar ages ago except the team was there they just backed away very very slowly of course she gave the Weevil stomach-ache

[caz251.livejournal.com]

Weevil duty for life with no contact with Jack OR Ianto's personal shield in the field.

[haces222.livejournal.com]

Problem with the personal shield is she'd do such a piss poor job Ianto could end up hurt

Good suggestions mind

[flabagash.livejournal.com]

Force her to read every gwen bash fic on the net to take her down a peg then retcon sounds good to me :P

[haces222.livejournal.com]

Recton's always good just need to figure how much to take

[bubbleslayer.livejournal.com]

Rhys would fall in love w/ Andy, who would return his feelings and they'd run off to Spain together.

Gwen would just turn to Jack...only to have him tell her he's decided he's 100% gay and in love with Ianto and wouldn't touch her w/ a 10ft pole.

Gwen, alone and bereft would attempt to make out with Janet and be mauled to death, because Janet's standards are much higher than that.

The end.

[haces222.livejournal.com]

Someone has got to write that!

[drivetheocean.livejournal.com]

THIS.

[likestowrite.livejournal.com]

make her clean under every fridge in Splot (and whatever other welsh place you can think of) as a "special mission"

then Ianto/Jack could have a holiday.

[haces222.livejournal.com]

Not sure anyones gonna get the relevance of the fridge J but I'll add it for you and P

Here have semi nekkid DB

[likestowrite.livejournal.com]

then she gets ate by giant dust bunny

[haces222.livejournal.com]

Is there room for one more in that dust bunny *grin*

Gwen gets attacked by a mind warping alien. She wakes to discover that her experiences at Torchwood were all a dream, and she's still one of the lowest of the low at her old job. The people around her have no reason to listen to her opinions and she's forced to listen to those with more experience.

[haces222.livejournal.com]

*snigger*

I like it

[manics-fan.livejournal.com]

Gwen gets bitten by a weevil, but survives. It transpires that weevils pass on a virus (like werewolves) so that whoever they bite tuens into a weevil themself. Gwen proceeds to turn into a weevil, and is unable to communicate to anyone anymore.

No-one at Torchwood knows about this virus thing, or what has happened, and think Gwen is just another weevil when she turns up at Torchwood looking for help. So Jack locks her up in the cells with the rest of the weevils. They all just assume that Gwen has been taken by the rift, and there is nothing they can do, and so they carry on with their lives.

[amythest-n-ice.livejournal.com]

lol, she doesn't communicate with anyone anyway, she talks AT them, not TO them *g*

[slns7552.livejournal.com]

Rhys discovers that she cheated on him with Owen and then retconned him. He divorces her and becomes a member of Torchwood taking some of Ianto's jobs such Ianto is now doing Tosh's job. Jack has the blinders ripped off his eyes and fnally sees her for what she really is, gets pissed because she gave him such a hard time when he wanted to retcon Rhys and he retcons her back far enough she has to test (or whatever they do in Wales) again in order to become a PC again. Myfanwy throws up on her. And Ianto serves her bad coffee for making anime eyes at Jack. Oh, and PC Andy refuses to be her friend anymore because she's such a manipulative user.

[jo02]

With the (eager) co-operation of Rhys, I would retcon her back to before she met Torchwood, have her transfered in the police to somewhere like Swansea, and help Rhys move them to a new home ASAP.

Much as I loathe her, I don't think she can help being the way she is, so I'd rather just move her out of the way rather than hurt her (you don't hurt someone who's not the full quid, you just put them somewhere safe, and I feel the same way about Gwen).

[amythest-n-ice.livejournal.com]

Plastic surgery so she can't make the goo goo eyes any more, and can't do the 'cute' gap toothed grin, then everyone will be able to see past the thin veneer of humanity to the manipulative Earth Invading Alien Spawn she really is.

Cut her vocal chords, so that she can't talk her way out of the shit anymore, and let people realize what an evil troll she really is.

Slow roast her and send her back to the time when there were still dinosaurs, they had to become extinct somehow, and this seems more likely than a chunk of rock falling out of the sky, lol.

[holdingoff.livejournal.com]

Hmm.

Allow her to have a three minute monologue about how much she cares about the world and everything, but that she loves Rhys more. Then she can admit that she's pregnant and wants out, but doesn't want Retcon.

Jack, being an utter sop when it comes to her, will let her leave with her memories in tact if they agree to move out of Cardiff (because his little woobie heart couldn't stand seeing her around town).

Jack, Ianto and her replacement ANDY wave goodbye as they drive out of Cardiff in a Harwoods lorry as the sun sets.

While Gwen and Rhys are smiling happily at each other singing off key to Classic FM they rear end a stalled car on the M4, bursting into flame. Rhys is thrown free, but Gwen is trapped.

Scene flashes back to Torchwood, where Ianto is turning off a monitor before filing Gwen (Cooper) Williams, deceased in the computer system and Jack is calling for him to hurry up.

Fade to black as Jack, Ianto and Andy head out of the Hub with the pterodactyl making a pass overhead.

[haces222.livejournal.com]

Okay you've been thinking wayyyyyy too much about this that's almost a whole episode condensed

Like it though!

[haces222.livejournal.com]

I love the fact everyone wants Andy to take her place *grin*

Screaming kid in the background... I know the feeling

[blucougar.livejournal.com]

I tried to think up something elaborate, but my brain short-circuited about half an hour ago. So I'll stick with the following.

In season 3 (because the writers wasted ample opportunities to get rid of Gwen in season 1 & 2), Gwen is caught in an explosion, takes a severe knock to the head, wakes up with no memory of her life and spends the rest of her life in the looney bin because she hallucinates about pterodactyls and walking fish with bad mohawks.

Alternatively, Jack and Ianto mistake her for a weevil whilst on a hunt, and taser her to death.

[haces222.livejournal.com]

LOL

love it!

[ceindreadh.livejournal.com]

Have her develop an allergy to Ianto's coffee. After a few near death allergic reactions, she confronts Jack and says that because of her life-threatening allergy, legally Jack has to make allowances for her and clear the Hub of everything that sets it off.

Jack smiles and says that of course he'll deal with the situation so that Gwen never has to come into contact with Ianto's coffee again.

Next day P.C. Cooper wakes up with a massive hangover, made worse by the fact that she's stuck on traffic duty on one of the wettest days that Cardiff has seen in years. For some reason a black SUV keeps driving past and splashing her.

The End

[haces222.livejournal.com]

This is gonna be one doozy of a poll

Begs the question what was in the coffee to make her allergic to it and who put it there

SUV splashing her is a nice touch *grin*

[chester-kat.livejournal.com]

Gwen is in the hub alone and playing with a piece of alien technology (that Jack specifically told her NOT to touch) that turns her into a bucket.

No one notices.

Ianto and Jack come back from shagging and find the bucket. Ianto uses it clean out the weevil cells, as a vomit bucket when Jack gets poisoned (from some of Gwen's left over cooking) and almost dies, and as a toilet when the plumbing gets backed up.

No one ever notices (or cares) that Gwen is missing.

[haces222.livejournal.com]

Very apt

[kitkat0038.livejournal.com]

I have seen her future. She gets taken by the rift to Camelot, becomes a witch and then Merlin kills her with a chandelier. Sorted :o)

[haces222.livejournal.com]

Never actually watched Merlin though she's half way there already having the witch part down

Good idea
