I've never realized how many times it's been, but what I love about these is that he's found out something about himself, how strong he is, how brave, how much he belongs there and he's so much more than just another science officer.

And OH OH, when he helped Teyla, I swear that scene just made my heart go all fuzzy for him..seriously, it was like Rodney's hard edges all got filed down.

Thank you for this, you all wrote some wonderful 5 times stories!!!!

And Hide and Seek possibly.

I know it's been more than this, I just let them pass without even thinking about it until they are staring me in the face.

And yes, it does ring a bell, seeing as that's one of my favorite episodes, so isn't Inferno, he came pretty close in that one too, and yes, that one does that ring a bell as well.

He's nearly died many, many more times than I touched on here. I just picked on episode that spoke to me from each season and tried to go with ones there weren't the obvious choices such as Grace Under Pressure or Tao of Rodney.

Oh Rodney! I particularly like the last two, seeing how Rodney's grown esp the fact that he's found a family in Atlantis to risk his life for.

[maverick4oz]

Thanks P. I think the growth of Rodney is one of my very favorite things about SGA.

Fabulous set of drabbles. In a few words, you perfectly capture Rodney's feelings in each of these episodes. They're each individually perfect, but also fit brilliantly together leaving the reader with a powerful impact of all Rodney's gone through and learned. Fantastic writing!

[maverick4oz]

Thanks partner. I do so enjoy drabbles. And as I told P above, the growth of Rodney is one of the best things about SGA for me.
