Why this must be read: This fic starts with Jonas on Earth, not fitting in and takes him through the journey of settling in and finding his place. It ends with him back on Langara, trusted but alone.

It is a wonderful insight into Jonas' character and the dislocation he had to feel at having to pick up his life and change everything familiar twice. I'm really not doing this fic justice, because I am struggling to put into words just how right it is.


He misses home. He misses going outside whenever he wants and walking down the streets. He misses his colleagues and the projects with which he was familiar. At the SGC, everything is new and adventurous, but that wears thin after a while, and all he wants is to sit with old friends in his own house and be still for a moment. So he becomes the explorer, and takes on the universe everyday. He learns all languages and reads all the books. One day, he wakes up and doesn’t wonder where he is. That makes him miss Langara even more.
