I am weeping. This was just PERFECT.

Awww - thank you very much! :)

Thank you very much - and you know, I'm so glad that the Charlie thing wasn't too obscure; I wondered how blatant to make it, and decided to go for subtle since Teyla hasn't even met Jack and Sam probably wouldn't discuss his history with someone who doesn't know him - I'm awfully glad that it worked! :)

d'awww, thank you very much - and for the lovely, flattering rec as well! :)

I just like thinking about what their lives are like - what they do for fun, what their recreational areas look like; who they are when they aren't saving the galaxy.

This is a very touching, beautifully written story. This reminds me of the many quilts littering my grandmothers home, each and every one made by combining various pieces of clothing or squares of friends and family throughout the years.

Every kid that ever stepped into her house always asked why they looked funny, all miss matched and such. She always said:

"They are perfect in their imperfections. They are memories."

Wonderful illustration of this fact.

Oh, what a beautiful story! And, yes, you've very right - it fits perfectly with the story of Teyla's afghan. Thank you very much!
