Why this must be read:

An extremely eye-opening and touching look at five fates that might have been our Atlantis Expedition's but for the stroke of Lady Luck. All of these are painful in their own ways and enough, each by themselves, to bring a tear to the reader's eye. All five together... just make sure you've got at least one tissue handy for a quick nose honk, as it'll be needed. Friendshipper just shows us again how she may be the queen of action/adventure team-y goodness, but her depth of talent for writing outside the box will make you gasp in wonder as well.

Story Summary: There but for the grace.

Why This Must Be Read: This fic will delight you as Jack witnesses, with a kind of stunned astonishment, exactly what Sam's personality is like outside the formal regulations of the military. Gentle humor, teamy goodness, an entertaining original character, lots of speeding tickets, and the perfect tag line. Enjoy the sheer pleasure of seeing everyone being perfectly themselves!


Jack realizes she’s not flirting; she’s just being herself without any of the restraint or decorum the Air Force usually imposes on her behaviour.
