that was a wonderful read after a day of studying referencing and information. I now long to dance the night away with my love. Thank you for a special story I really think it worked well.

I 'd love to hear them!

And thank you! It's not *perfect* but pretty okay for a first try!
(and maybe now I'll stop singing it and beating out the rhythm on everything!)

There was something so seductive and urgent about the drumming. it was the perfect mirror for the rising heat between John and Rodney. This was such a visceral, vivid piece; I loved it. And the mp3 was an awesome complement (why can't I get the word 'throbbing' out of my mind? oh, well.)

This was awesome! I really loved the rising sexual tension the more they dance and Ronon and Teyla's matter-of-factness about polyamorous groups pointed out that Pegasus is different than Earth.

Thank you so much! I kind of wish we knew more about how societies operate in Pegasus.
