Why This Must Be Read: A short story that starts with John waiting and ends with the gate closing after the team went through. If you don't read the warning first, you're in for a slow reveal of what's going on - masterfully done by the author. A touching story that shows the close connections between Teyla, Ronon, Rodney and John beautifully. Bittersweet (though more sweet than bitter in my opinion), heartbreaking and hopeful, sad for what happened and lovely for what follows. It made me tear up and smile at the same time.

All I can say is: if what happened had to happen, then this is the best way things could proceed afterward.

At first I read the warning and decided not to read it. Then I read all the comments and changed my mind. It is still not my cup of tea, but like you said: if what happened had to happen, then this is the best way things could proceed afterward. Thanks for the interesting link!

Yeah, I figured that it wouldn't be everyone's cup of tea but I appreciate that you read it anyway. :-) (p.s. watch your inbox tomorrow *g*)
