Why This Must Be Read: I know not everyone likes reading het, but I can read pretty much anything that has either John Sheppard or Rodney McKay in it, so I like a lot of John/Teyla fics including the Legacy series. MGM made those writers turn the series back into Gen by the last couple of books, but there was a John/Teyla phase in the middle, and this is fanfiction for that stage of the Legacy series.
This story's about an established relationship where John's become Torren's dad, and is returning home after a visit to the SGC. There's some character development about him resolving things with Dave and his home being Pegasus, and Teyla coming to terms with what Torren's future might hold. Recommended. 

“DAD!” Torren raced in through a side passage, nearly taking out a medical tech who was doing inventory on their new supplies. “Sorrysorrysorry,” he said, waving his hands in apology before launching himself at John.

John dropped Teyla’s hands and stepped back, braced for the impact. Soon he had his arms full of 8-year-old boy, and he felt his face split into a wide, delighted smile. “Hey!” He lifted Torren up--a task which got more difficult with each year--and spun him in a quick circle.

“Daddaddad you’re not gonna believe it I was sparring with Ronon and I got a hit! I did, Dad! Can you come, can I show you??”

John looked towards the passage from whence Torren had emerged and found Ronon leaning in the entrance. John raised a brow, and Ronon shrugged. “It happened,” he said.
