*Whistles and applauds* Too cool! The snippets of past, who they were and who they are, and all of it coming together for one heck of an ending. Loved it! Totally, toally loved it!

*takes a bow* Thank you, thank you. I love how different their backgrounds are but how wonderfully they fit together, how it makes them a real team.

Eeee~! What a breathtaking ending to a beautiful story. I love the way this looks at defining moments in all of their individual lives, and then finally at the way they live life together. John refusing to jump before Rodney did made me all kinds of happy, and just - aww! What a fun story!

Lovely POV for all the characters, but I particularly liked the panicked but determined Rodney.

Thank you. I don't write that much Rodney but this is probably what I like the most about him: his very own way of being determined and courageous.

Excellent POVs for each character - the looks into their past felt just right for each of them as well - and you managed to keep the sense of action and danger going in between them too.

Love the ending - of course, I'm going to assume they all made it out and home, if a bit banged up and wet!

I think it safe to reveal that they did. Thanks. :)
