Why This Must Be Read:This is such a deep look at Ronon and his life before Atlantis. It starts off with the usual team banter that (if you haven't read the author's notes) would make you assume that this fic is humorous, but then it turns into this sad look at Ronon and all the things he is, and all the things he's willing to share, and all the things he isn't.
I love the way she tells the story of Ronon and Elizabeth's relationship. It's so Ronon and so sweet in a way that cuts to the heart of things, just like Ronon. And though there is sadness laced throughout the entire story, the ending leaves you with hope.
Excerpt:
"Hard to believe we never heard you sing before," says Sheppard again, after a moment's silence. "Like a secret side of you we never knew about. What else you been hiding from us, buddy?"
And the warmth of the singing abruptly sputters out and dies, and Ronon has to busy himself with studying his new cuff tattoo -- because there was one Tau'ri who'd heard him sing before, and he didn't want to think about her, not yet.
The first time he sang for Elizabeth, it had been full dark, the kind of dark they never get on New Lantea with its multiple moons. His head was pillowed in the narrow cradle of her hips, her fingers toying idly with his hair, and Ronon had been humming before he'd been aware of it. He heard himself, coughed to cover his embarrassment, and Elizabeth had said, "No, please," and stroked the shell of his ear.
