Summary: Teyla reflects on some of the differences between her people and the people from Earth.

That was absolutely lovely. I think your take on Teyla's character is perfect. Leah

Author's Response: Thank you! :-) I'm really fascinated with the Athosian culture and the little glimpses of it we've seen, so I hope one day to do more with this. But in the meantime, I'm glad folks are enjoying it! :-)

Summary: McKay plays matchmaker and tables get turned, but on whom?

That was great. Very sweet, and very, very funny. My only wish is that Rodney could have gotten to fall in love, too. (With Carson, maybe? ) Thank you so much for archiving! Leah

Author's Response: Glad you liked it! I do have an idea for a sequel titled "Love All" (continuing the tennis metaphor *g*), but only a vague one so far. And Rodney is definitely growing on me so I have no doubt I'll give him someone to love eventually, whether in this series or no. :-)

Summary: Sheppard thought Rodney was the most annoying human being in the galaxy - Pegasus or otherwise - from the moment he met him.

God, that's a wonderful story. I loved the progression, and the sweet, slow trickle of John's realizations. I read it again because it made me so damn happy the first time, and it was even better the second time around. Thank you.

Summary: Lt Ford asks Major Sheppard how to apologize after the events of Hot Zone

That was a wonderful story. Absolutely wonderful. I love Ford, and it's always a treat to get to read a story about him. I thought the insights into his character and his reactions were just perfect, and I loved his conversations with Sheppard and McKay, Zelenka and Beckett. Thank you. Leah

Summary: He knows the Wraith are coming. He knows they can't win. SPOILERS for Letters From Pegasus.

Excellent, disturbing story, Moony. My take on it is that John was either hoping Teyla might let him fuck her--as and escape--or that she might beat the shit out of him--as a punishment for his failing. That scene was absolutely chilling. And yet the ending was strangely hopeful, despite what had gone before. Logically, too. John is nothing if not able to adapt. One of your best, Moony. Thank you so much for posting it here. Leah

Summary: McKay has a brilliant idea. As usual. Huge thanks to Dira and Shade for their beta work!

That was a terrific story. Funny, hot and surprisingly sweet. Thank you.

Author's Response: Thank you!

Summary: Tag for The Siege II. It plays out in his mind...

Truly excellent story. I loved the circling detail of John's imagining what else could have happened, but always ending up with Sumner dead, and despite that, that he could never have saved him, the guilt is palpable, as real to the reader as it is to the character. Wonderfully well done.

Summary: What would you do with your last two weeks?

That was overwhelmingly amazing. Some of the best fic I've ever read. You guys have heaped a universe of emotion here, and all of it achingly beautiful. I was almost in tears, too. I would dearly love to read more of this, maybe next season when we see how it ends. Thank you.

Author's Response: Thank you, sweetie. I'm thrilled you were moved. Honestly, this fic was a pleasant surprise. It was supposed to be much lighter, but the show kept getting darker and it took our story with it. In the end I was damned proud of it. Knowing you liked it makes me very happy. --chelle

Summary: An incident on a mission forces Sheppard and McKay to face the tension that has risen between them.

Terrific story! I thought the interaction between John and Rodney was great, and very necessary after "Sanctuary." The return to their easy friendship was heartwarming.

Summary: A moment inside Weir's mind on the eve of "The Seige." No spoilers after "The Brotherhood" though.

Terrific story, Miera. I would never have thought of anything like this, and it is perfect in it's simplicity and aptness. I loved Weir's reactions to it all. You have her beautifully. Great stuff.

Summary:

Very cool story! I like the idea of John occasionally sleepwalking due to stress, and his fear of the possible reprecussions of it. I'd love to read a story where that actually happened. I also really enjoyed the burgeoning McShep as well. :-)

Summary:

Wonderfully sweet story. I really like the sibling-esque relationship between McKay and Sheppard, squabbling and all. ;->

Author's Response: Thank you! :) I'm glad you liked it. I'm torn between keeping my fics gen or making them slash lol I can see both that sibling-esqueness as well as the slash. :P

Summary: Sheppard wants some answers.

These are terrific. I love 'missing scenes' stuff, and I can't wait to see what you've got planned--playing with the shield during "Hide and Seek," perhaps? Whatever you've planned will doubtless be great. :-)

Author's Response: Hrm...that would be spoiling it. Of course, I did just post the next part. So...as soon as it's approved...

Summary: He was pretty sure this wasn't love.

That was beautiful, and tragic. I loved the gentle, bittersweetly hopeful ending, but even if Rodney has an artist's hands, he doesn't think he has an artist's soul, and that's far more important. I wonder if John can help heal that, though it seems John is in need of healing himself, which Rodney may not be able to give him.

Author's Response: Thank you for your lovely review! You very much got what I was trying to do with the story. Possibly better than I did. ;-)

You are one hell of a talent. This is your best story that I've read so far, and that's saying a great deal. This was heartbreaking and riviting; I would dearly love to know what happens next, as I would dearly love for Rodney to be happy by the end of this series. I wonder if John even knows how done-in Rodney has been by him? Incredible story. Just excellent.

Summary: Rodney McKay learns having an artificial ATA gene isn't all it's cracked up to be.

Terrific story, Ellex! I'm very glad I was able to help you with it, and thank you so much for the sweet mention! The scene with Rodney in the Hive ship just about broke my heart, and the last chapter was terrific--Rodney's reaction to John's comment about having a little brother was so sweet it made me grin. Please do put a link to this on the Wraithbait list, so others can enjoy it. It was wonderful.

Summary: They'll survive without him...but they'll never be the same. Post-"The Siege Part II". Sheppard/Weir/McKay strongly implied

I had no problem knowing who was speaking, my self. This was gorgeous--beautifully poetic and and quietly devestating. I would love to read a sequel that occurs after John survives (because we know he will, even if the characters don't), to find out what happens to the three of them, and if Elizabeth keeps her promise to herself. This was wonderful.

Author's Response: Thank you! I'd kinda like to see that sequel myself--cross your fingers that "The Siege Part III" is as inspiring as Part II. :-)

Summary: It's hard to fix something when you can't figure out what's wrong.

Great story. I love the interactions, and I think your take on Rodney is fantastic. I would say this is most definitley pre-slash, the way our genius Canuck is acting about the whole thing. I just wonder what John got so sick about... :-)

Summary: John gets some good advice . . . and a shove in the right direction.

Hey--finally got to reading this, at least a week later than I said I would, for which I'm sorry. I really like the changes you made, and the fallout from John's spur-of-the-moment impulsiveness. Of course, I liked the happy ending the best. It was really sweet. :-)

Summary: Carnivals are supposed to be exciting. Written for the sga_flashfic "Enclosed spaces" challenge

Very funny and wonderfully sweet. I was smiling all the way through it. Thank you.

Author's Response: I really had fun writing them and I'm glad you liked it. Thanks.
