Author's Summary: John’s upset enough when he discovers his friend, Dr Ingram, collapsed on his return to Earth, but that’s nothing compared to how disturbed he is when he learns who’s brought him home…

Why this must be read It's While You Were Sleeping Atlantis style. vaderys makes all the pieces fit and give a plausible reason for why it takes place on Atlantis - all while keeping the characters in character. My advice? Just sit back and enjoy it.

Why This Must Be Read: Most writers approach time loops from the POV of the person who knows it's a time loop. This one doesn't and it's delightful. Rodney McKay knows to be wary when John Sheppard smiles like that, too bright and a little dangerous, and that's what gets the ball rolling on a rollicking time loop that's too ordinary and horribly mundane and still full of surprises. It's a fun, fast read that will leave you giggling.
