Why This Must Be Read:

This fic is structured around the explication of literary terms. The Atlantis crew illustrates for us in vignettes both long and short, amusing and touching, such concepts as caesura, the frame tale, and in medias res. Although this fic features a variety of parings, I think that the relationship between Teyla and Kate is most exquisitely portrayed, especially the way Kate's facade finally cracks and we get to see the human being beneath the shrink. There's also this amazing, amazing moment in the story when all of Atlantis works as one, where everyone is linked to everyone else and I've never seen anything like this moment. It's so beautiful and so perfect and it becomes the opportunity to say so many very insightful things about these characters that we love so much. I can really think of no finer place to begin my femslash recommendations to this community.

Excerpt:
Kate pauses before the bed. Teyla’s still naked amid the folds of the sheets, skin glowing dark and golden in the soft lamplight. She could be posing for a Greek statue, one knee drawn up slightly, resting back on her elbows, hair falling over her bare shoulders. Kate could go back, at least, could kiss her soft mouth again before she leaves, could let the gesture say: you’re so beautiful, I loved doing this with you, I can’t wait to see you again tomorrow.
