Oh, I like this! It's a great glimpse into what it might be like to grow up in the Pegasus Galaxy. Teyla's nightmares are very striking, and her dream of everyone growing old and dying in bed under her leadership is touching and very true for an adolescent.

Thank you! It seems like it would be a hard way to grow up but I still wanted her to keep some positivity for the future. I'm glad that came across well.

Excellent insight into Teyla's childhood among her people, and their mentality of survival.

Thank you! I like the thought of a relationship building from friendship to something more over years.

This was lovely. Kind of haunting and sad, but I like how determined they all still are. And I can really buy into the idea that a lot of the Athosians had to grow up and become teachers/leaders as teenagers.
