Nice.

But I'm feeling cold now.

I'mg glad you liked it! ^_^ It was an odd little plotbunny; I was worried the the 'freezing' thematic would be to vague to translate well. *pets bunny*

This... this is wonderful. :) You know just what nerves to hit, don't you? Especially with that last line.

My laugh is an evil laugh-- er, Muse. *whistles innocently* I've had pretty abrasive plotbunnies the last few days... am thinking of answering the next challenge with another stick comic. ^_^;;;

Glad you liked it! ^_^

Oh, this is lovely--the angst/trauma made somehow MORE hurty by the way John's dreamy unhingement blunts the descriptions. And yay, Rodney!

I'm glad you liked it! ^_^ Turned out a bit darker than I had expected, but my Muses waffle that way every so often... ^_^;; <-(sheepish look) ((baa!))

I love that all of Atlantis come together to hide the truth from John.

That Rodney puts in all that effort into hiding how long he was trapped but that actually "they let him" because they agree with the why!

Somewhat ethereal, surreal and perfectly pitched.
