Hah, I'm surprised the entire team just didn't go up and give Woolsey a big, relieved hug. *g*

Great story with a lovely Rodney voice.

[propinquitine]

I'm sure there were many hugs later. :-) Glad to hear the p.o.v. worked for you, thanks!

Rodney telling Parrish to 'man up', Rodney hugging (HUGGING!) John, and fessin' up "I don't love him like I love you" then they kiss. Yay! John smirking at Rodney because he knows it drives Rodney crazy distracted. Well done!

Loved reading this. Awesome job!

[propinquitine]

I'm so glad you enjoyed it! Thank you very much. :-)

I love that Woolsey saved the day in his own inimitable way.

And once again, Rodney's gaydar sucks but once he figures it out, it's all good.

This is just LOVELY.

Thank you! I'm glad you liked it -- I couldn't resist having Woolsey be the paper-pushing hero. :-)

[propinquitine]

Hee, I'm so happy other people share my Woolsey!love. Glad you enjoyed this!

(And I &hearts your icon.)

OMG the ending was such a surprise! I was expecting a long, drawn-out story where the Atlanteans mutinied and declare independence from Earth. I'm still a bit bemused that the IOA weren't bastards this time. Huh. Maybe I'm reading too much conspiracy stories...

[propinquitine]

Heh, no, I can never quite work up that much plot. :-) This was definitely a wish-fulfillment "What if international bureaucracies worked?" situation. :-)
