What a premise: Ianto turning his clean-up of lives and disasters into film scripts. That is just perfect, and it goes admirably with your cinematic style. Even more perfect because for Ianto as for TW's victims, films really are projections: vehicles of fantasy and agency and escape, of making something that looks real but is just a little bit (or a lot) better.
And of course films have habituated us (and Ianto, and all the others) to visualizing Gothic-style horrors, so that as long as we think of them in "scripted" terms, we can get those comprehension neurons to fire, or complete the narrative circuit.
Utterly creepy, mad detail here, especially Petsy, OMG.
