http://archiveofourown.org/works/580242 Why This Must Be Read:
In this story, Jadomil imagines an ending for the "other" Nicholas Rush from "Twin Destinies" and a rare moment of connection for the Rush that remains and Colonel Young.
Tell me a secret, Rush asks of Young, I told you mine.
A wonderful coda to one of SGU's best episodes.
It's only a matter of time until their next crisis, until Young doubts and his mood shifts and Nicholas mistrusts and the same dance begins again . . . I'm kind of busy right now, busy dying. Shutdown, end of transmission, that's it. When the time comes, I know you'll be there. “For a moment there, I thought we were in trouble.” q.e.d. Imagine not knowing how it ends.
