"Or blue jeans," Rodney said. "Did the latest issue of Cosmo advise you to coordinate with your casual wardrobe, Sheppard? Because I really don't think you're a winter."

"Autumn," Ronon decided, after a moment's contemplation. "Charcoal brown hair, amber hazel eyes."

John stared. "I'm not even going to ask."

HEE!

This is grand fun, start to finish. :-)

Thank you! That exchange was one of my favorites myself, one of those times the chars completely take over the writing and I'm just left wondering where the heck they're going XD

Love this...very sweet and inviting. This felt real and I loved Rodney's version, of lucky, Ronon's thoughts about what would make them warm and John's insecurity's regarding being touched...ending in a sweet huddle with Teyla's snap shot as a memento.

Hee - I felt sorry for John, his teammates are so eminently practical, to hell with their team leader's insecurities! (felt sorry for Teyla, too, missing out on the snuggles, but at least she gets a photo out of it ^^)

Don't use the endangered penguins for target practice,

LOL! Quite right too!

"And if there are wolves, you do have a lethal weapon."

"Oh, and how long do you think two P-90 clips will last against a pack of fifty starving dire wolves, hmm?"

"I was talking about your mouth," John said

He he he!!!

A really nice comfort fic - love the banter. I like how John doesn't want to get under the blankets - fits with canon! Wonderful - and Teyla at the end taking the photo! LOL!! Go, Teyla!

Thank you, glad you enjoyed it! (I don't actually know if Antarctic penguins are endangered, but the line was too good to pass up XD)

That was totally adorable.

[xparrot]

Thanks! ^_^

That was great! I loved the humor (Why does Ronon know Sheppard's an autumn? Teyla's warm and fuzzy place!) and the team dynamic was spot on!

Really great job! Thanks so much for sharing.

Thank you! The team being teamy is such terrific fun, no?
