Why This Must Be Read: This is a really interesting look at Wesley Wyndam-Price, if he'd been recruited by the SGC for Atlantis. It's Lorne's POV, both about settling into Atlantis, and taking notice of a linguist who's also extremely competent with weapons and at sparring. There are some great nods to Wesley's past (especially re: his sparring with Teyla; how he handles Rodney). A great character study with an understated, engaging tone.
I just love this exchange - says a lot about Wesley's approach to things:
“I beg your pardon,” he said. He held out his right hand, no longer clenched, and added, “Wesley Wyndham-Pryce.”
Evan took his hand and shook it, feeling calluses that hadn’t come from books. “Major Evan Lorne,” he said.
Wesley cocked an eyebrow at him. “Would you be offended if I called you Evan?” he asked.
“Do you have a problem with rank and authority?” Evan asked.
“I never have before,” Wesley said, “but I’m trying.” He’d given Evan a nod and stepped around him, continuing on his way. When Evan glanced over his shoulder, Wesley was already engrossed in his book again.
(first time posting a rec to this community, I hope I did everything correctly!)
