I'm just kinda in awe that you could take a silly little story about fake sex and worshiping at altars and make into something so thoughtful and understated.
I loved that you turned it around and made it about Teyla and set it in the future with Kanan and Torrin. It just worked and was completely unexpected.
This is the classier cousin to my story. :-)

By the way, I really enjoyed going through your stories for remix--it was really cool how many different characters and genres you've written. It's weird, because I didn't quite start off with this story, although it made me grin a lot. But I bounced among a few other stories (and got about 750 words into a remix of the Teyla/Bates story before realizing I saying anything you hadn't already said in the orignal), with the matter-of-fact demystication of AMTDI in Black Light apparently growing in the back of my mind all the time...

And Elizabeth, eeee! That early negotiation is lovely. I adore how Teyla gauges friendship and uses it to better negotiate, in such an open and wonderful way. Beautiful skill you've drawn her with. Lovely.
