This is just so quiet and lovely and... comfortable. They're so comfortable together, like a favorite shirt, but in the best of ways. This is a real feel-good fic and I think I'll mem it for when this wonderful feeling is needed again. Thank you!

Oh wow. What a lovely comment! Thank you! I'm so glad the story resonated with you. That's awesome. :)

Yay. This is wonderful.
I love the quietness of the discovery of what's between them.

[altyronsmaker]

Thank you. sometimes it's fireworks and other times it's just...silent wonder. Thanks for reading and the lovely comment. :)

This was beautiful. So many wonderful phrases and imagery, from Earth's night sky being alien, to the pinpoints in John's eyes, to kissing under foreign stars...I really enjoyed this, a lot! :o)

[altyronsmaker]

yay! Imagery that works! And I figure, five years defending a place, living in it and making it your own means that where you come from has got to feel a little strange. I know I feel weird when I go home; John and Rodney had to as well.

Thanks for reading and I'm happy you enjoyed it:)

The mask of indifference was so completely thorough Rodney almost missed the shadow of regret that passed through John's eyes.
There's this ephemeral undercurrent of melancholy so I was anxious and relieved when they both got on the same page by the end - because that outcome was never guaranteed. Then there's the whole natural domesticity of Jack's cabin - a bubble of calm in their often too dangerous lives - that is extremely appealing.

Just (mmmmmmm) lovely.
