Why This Must Be Read: This is a bit of a brain-teaser, like a lot of fics about time travel - Rodney sets SG1 straight about the real outcome of the events of 'Moebius' (the SG1 episode). The ending's a classic - poor Rodney! The story starts just after 'The Siege', when senior staff have been recalled to the SGC. Very cleverly written, and highly recommended. 
Unfortunately there's a formatting error throughout the fic - all the m-dashes are replaced by little graphics. If you want a cleaned-up version as a pdf or ebook, message me for a copy.

This is an easy, gentle approach to their romance that does the heart good.
