We should be allowed to win at our own game, don't you think?

Oh, yes, indeed! ::grin::

Team... so nice to see them together and not scrambling for their lives.....

Nicely done!

Oh wow, I loved all of these! John visiting Proculus and playing chess with Chaya and Rodney teaching the Athosian children a version of Rock, Paper, Scissors are just wonderful ideas. It's the third one that gets me though. Just, made me get all misty-eyed. I LOVE that they all re-write their own career cards, and Rodney doesn't have college debt, and that Ronon's job is 'Kickass' and when John put the little blue peg in his car I just... melted. So naturally, the fourth scene is just, so, so good. Augh, this: "It'll be okay." Rodney wants to sound reassuring, but he's also very aware that he's drunk. "We've been changing the rules since we got here. We should be allowed to win at our own game, don't you think?" just made my heart skip. All the little details in all of these scenes were just so wonderful.

I've had the idea about Chaya for a while, and wondered about what games people in Pegasus played.... (The Life game was inspired by an actual game, where everyone ended up rich because we couldn't be bothered to figure out taxes *g*) Thank you for reading!

This was fantastic! I loved all these little glimpses of their lives, and how much is implied in the interstices between. Sweet and warm and teamy and wonderful. :)

Thank you! I like thinking about the little things, like games *g*

[busaikko]

Thank you! I enjoyed writing the team interactions *g*

I'm delighted by this. Oh John Sheppard, of course you would come out via board game. I loved Ronon's career as Kickass and Teyla's plans for education among her people. And Rodney, finally ready to ask the question John's waiting to answer yes to. ♥

Thank you! (This last summer we were playing Life with half the cards and pins and none of the rules... and figured some day that would end up in a fic *g*)
