John Sheppard - Protector in Chief

A little bird got me thinking about The Shrine...

I love that it looks so instinctive. He's not even looking at Rodney in the picture - he's just got a steadying hand out. I think that says so much about John and how he feels toward his team.

That is EXACTLY why I chose a shot from this scene! When you watch this, he glances down, almost anticipating, and gets that hand out while still keeping watch over everyone in his charge. Instinctive is the perfect word.

It's making me have all sorts of mushy feelings - about the show, John, Rodney, the team, and so on.

I know... everyone involved was just so damn good at what they were doing. If it had been a crap show, that's one thing, but to have it ripped away from you like a tiny piece of your heart... that's a whole 'nother ball game.

Gah, now I've made myself weepy.

Thinking about the show - about how it's done, and will never come back - has legitimately made me tear up. The fandom being so quiet now makes me ache, too :(

Same.

YES! THAT! EXACTLY! That was what I thought and then I read your comment and there you said exactly those things. :-)

*Exactly*!!!! Always being the guardian, the protector - the one that grounds them all in a way.
