Hee! I so love this.

But then, I have a major, serious weakness for con men.

This reminded me of Hustle, and that is one of the highest compliments I can give. You combined the best elements of Team, the Ocean's series, and general pull-one-over-on-authorities con artist awesomeness!

Yay! Thank you for writing this!

P.S. The recurring "we're on vacation" thing was perfect and very John. Why the hell is he always so reluctant to be happy?

Oh, John. I think at heart he is (or at least feels he should be) a martyr, in the non-pejorative sense.

I'm so glad you enjoyed this, and that the con artist stuff worked for you. I'm sorry this was late, too; I forgot I hadn't joined the comm until I tried to post late last night. *failboat*

Very cool. I especially like John bucking the what happens in vegas theme at the end.

I adore this. I love the fact that Teyla is *smart*, and John and his "it doesn't count if ..." and the fact that Homeland Security are skeezebuckets and *everything*.

hearts hearts hearts

Thank you! I'm so glad you enjoyed this. I have to admit, I love all those tiny bits of canon that seem to imply Teyla has been learning computer stuff from Rodney off-screen.

Awesome! This was so much fun. I love the AU versions of them, and John still being so John. I really liked the way you used Nancy too.
