Reccers, you all have access and can start posting at any time. Remember that you have committed yourself to reccing at least two fics over the course of the month, although of course we will be happy with more. Feel free to use the copy-and-paste template from the reccer's FAQ for your convenience.

Why This Must Be Read:
Originally published on fanfiction.net, this fic really deserves more attention on AO3.
It's a captivating, emotional read that centres around Rodney's devastating loss of his ability to use Ancient Technology and its emotional fallout. In the aftermath, a revelation leads to a deep personal crisis, and it takes more than a pat on the back from his friends to make things right and allow for a happy ending.
