I loved this entire story, but this

And it wasn’t an entire solar system; it was five-sixth of one… there’s still those three perfectly good moons and the planetoid mass that are out there.

made me laugh out loud. SO RODNEY! Hahaha!

I always loved the way Rodney was arguing with Elizabeth at the end of Trinity, like she had no righ to blame him for what had happened, because, yes, that is soooo Rodney. *G* Thanks so much!

LMAO....Rodney snorts at the feeble excuse. “Yes, because Canada is such a hotbed of international espionage.”

“Could be,” John shrugs. “It produced you, didn’t it? I mean you destroyed an entire solar system. How many governments can put that on their resume?”

“One goddamn solar system and I have to hear about it for the rest of my life,” Rodney grumbles. “It’s not like it was even inhabited. And it wasn’t an entire solar system; it was five-sixth of one… there’s still those three perfectly good moons and the planetoid mass that are out there.”

That was great! I love the mix of sentiment and humor. I love the family theme and Teyla's POV of it all. Really excellent.

Thanks so much! Rodney really is a WMD all on his own. *G*

“Then I suppose the United States can rest easy knowing we Canadians aren’t plotting to destroy the moon anytime soon with genetically-mutated super-moose armed with nuclear-powered hockey pucks.”
HAHAHAHA!

“No! Of course not. Not like that. But I’ve always had a thing for the exotic types and you’re…” John seems to flounder for the right word.
“Canadian?”
“Yeah, pretty much.”
“I had no idea I hailed from such boring yet dangerously untrustworthy stock.”
“I didn’t mean it as an insult.”
Rodney ignores John’s attempt at placating him. “How absolutely deadly my Canadian blandness could be.”
“Are you done now?”
Apparently he was not yet finished. “Evidently I didn’t blow up that solar system; it spontaneously exploded to escape my noxious tediousness and lethal dullness.”

excellent. thank you =)

[liketheriverrun]

Thanks so much! Those Canadians are a dangerous bunch. *G*
