Why This Must Be Read: Tielan is another great author who has written so many brilliant stories. This one focuses on the friendship between Ronon and John. Here Tielan explores the strong bond they have. They don't need to say much, a lot is left unsaid, but still understood. What I really like about this piece is the way Ronon gets John. The show rarely touches upon the burdens Pegasus has laid upon John, but here we see that he is not alone.

Ronon stares up at the brilliant spatter of this planet's night sky as he lets the flavours of the beer run over his tongue - not sharp or fierce like Satedan beer, but not bad. It's a nice night out with a good friend. None of the little distractions that happen in the city, nothing but the silence and the darkness.

It feels too long since he was out like this.

Ronon doesn't miss the endless running, but he misses the night sky, so far from towns or villages, from cities or spaceships.

The fight against the Wraith is one thing, but sometimes he just wants open sky.
