I'm glad you've called this a sort-of sequel to Dresser, because that's exactly what it feels like; more of a stand-alone story that just happens to come after Dresser.

It's a wonderful, sad, almost stately story, and I worried for a bit that Jack was going to drift too far away in his pain for Ianto to reach and gather back in. Thank you for giving them a happy-ish ending to this.

And I have to mention, that I love the dignity that you give Ianto with his inbuilt rituals of a more elegant time - I loved Ianto's explanation in the restaurant of why it was even better to attend to Jack in public than in private. It was a very intense and revealing moment.
