Ach, I should wait for flingslass to post first, I'm sure (sorry!), but this fic had me grinning so wide--largely for Lorne spends a moment silently weighing the two against each other: frozen yogurt.

Okay, sorry to have taken a long time but rl got in the way :( But my driving lessons are going great guns :)
I give Rodney about another day and a half before he realises he's a hero. And I so love that Dr Z would keep it from him.
Dr Z's office sounds like my brothers place, just need to add Blossom and Mr Parker (the cats)

You are most welcome! And thank you, because without your prompt I probably never would have considered writing this. That's one reason I like doing "prompt-me" memes--gets me to consider things from new angles.

I really like seeing glimpses of the secondary characters, and this is a wonderful example. And weighing the relative value of ZPMs vs. frozen yogurt...priceless. Thanks for writing!
