Thanks for the feedback and I'm glad you found it interesting (love your thinky-John icon LOL).
Interesting...you think Aeryn would have expected John and Chiana to get together? I never thought of it that way, that Aeryn would suspect it. But I have wondered whether -- if TJohn had lived and returned to Moya, and Aeryn had remained with him -- if MJohn would have ever given up on Aeryn. Though that would require Aeryn knowingly hurting MJohn, and I don't know if she could do that with both Johns alive and well in front of her.It is complicated...I think that once Aeryn made her decision to be with TJ completely - to the point where they were going to run off to earth together, apparently leaving MJ behind without a second glance - she wouldn't have felt she had any claim on MJ, and it probably would have annoyed her if he felt he had a claim on her. TJ was John, her heart, and MJ was something else she didn't really want think about or feel deeply for (hence her running away in DWTB, although I also think that was heavily

One of the things I hate about season 4 is how no one in-universe seems to "get" what happened to John.
Rebecca Riggs has said Grayza has no concept of rape and believed she was indeed offering Crichton a better option and giving him better treatment that Scorpius did, and I can believe that, the first time. But he tried to stab her, didn't he? I would think that would give her a moment's pause and contemplation, even if she saw no reason to change her methods.
It's possible PKs don't share our understanding of rape or process it in the same way, but as you point out, it's obvious Chiana does. Aeryn didn't know until WSS (and even then I don't know if she understands) but I find it odd that both D'Argo and Sikozu don't care...I do like the little things with Chiana, like how she's the only one that can initiate touch without him flinching for awhile, but I wanted moreThe show had too many balls in the air and didn't devote the proper time and attention to the storyline. I LOVE S4 but in some ways it is a mess. Not as tight as
