Summary: The Wraith make it to Earth, and John and Daniel are left to pick up the pieces.
Sneak Preview: I don't know what to put in here. This is the story that I remember by title (and I suck at remembering titles) and by the fact that it made me cry (I don't cry when reading just anything). There's 36 000 words in this and any of them could (hopefully) convince any of you who haven't yet read this to read it. But this is where I fell in love with this story and gave up reading "only enough to stash it in my fic-backlog in the right place":
They met once, before Atlantis, but John met a lot of new people then, and he can never really call Daniel to mind in that context—the memories are all a blur of new faces and yelling and crazy light-up objects. But fighting in the Colorado scrub, this civilian is precise and deadly and absolutely fearless, which John should recognize as dangerous insanity and stay the fuck away from, but he’s never been great at that kind of thing, himself. They cover each other through two separate suicide charges, bomb the fuck out of a low-flying dart, and kill Wraith until dreadlocked bodies cover the ground.
But seriously. If you haven't read this, go read it. Please.

On a shallow note, never pictured Daniel and John but, oh momma, can I see it now.....
