Hi, remixer! This is awesome! I love the weather (as you probably picked up from reading the original :p), and this, I think, captures everything I love about it. Like The rain starts to fall a little while after that. It's not one of those downpours that will never ever not make him cringe, but the sort that makes everything smell better, alive. I can see that rain. I can smell it.

I also really like the way you mixed up the order of the story and spun out that one detail about stormy days into a full-fledged fic itself. I never thought about it that way, and that's the beauty of remix!

Plus, that ending kiss is so perfect. Mmmmm.

Thank you! I'm glad you liked it. This is only my second attempt at SGA, so
I was super nervous. Your story struck me right away and then my remix was such a different attempt than I've ever done before... Thank you!! Again. For not hating it.

I like how this always circles back to them and their endless connection. :-D

I'ma rain girl myself, love it. I love how when the worst storms have passed, everything is so damn GREEN and ALIVE and smells and feels so new.

That's what this fic reminded me of. too much in the way between them, and a little rain, a little cleaner air, and they get it. Lovely.

Last line? gut clencher. Well done!
