Yay, TEAM! It's so nice to see a John/Rodney story that grounds their relationship in the gestalt of the team rather than focusing in on the McShep.
I especially appreciate the way this story treats the Rodney-Ronon friendship... it was a real balm after this season's crappy sabotage of it for the love triangle subplot. The way Rodney reassured Teyla about Torren, tying back to Rodney's experiences in The Shrine, was also lovely.
The whole thing makes me want to cheerlead for the sequel where they all go to Earth together. Because if that were anything like this, I think it'd be one of the best team-on-Earth stories around.
Thank you so much, because seriously, I couldn't have written this without all the pom poms! And yeah, I really wanted to get Ronon and Rodney away from the whole Keller thing because that just annoyed me like crazy.
And of course, as you already know, there will be a sequel; now I just hope it lives up to this one. :)
