Why this must be read: 52k words of a walk in Rodney's memories, more or less... The summary A dark concept of fair trade leaves the team struggling to regain what has been stolen from Rodney. hardly covers what this story has to offer.
Though the story is told mostly from everyone else point of view, on how they strugle to save Rodney McKay, this fic fits the category perfectly because everything revolves around McKay's memories and what makes who he is.
Lots of things captivated me on this fic: the character's connections and bounds, the way the memories interact with the actions, how alinear everything looks like sometimes (because our mind works in such ways). But mostly on the details, of actions and thoughts. Not everything is spelled out on this fic, and a lot is said on details.
