Shena, what an intriguing idea for a story. You thought out contingencies logically and found practical solutions, even spreading the ideas around the crew. I found myself hearing the actors voices, seeing the scenes playing out just like an extension of the episode.

Young allowed himself to be vulnerable. He didn't necessarily like it but knew it was the best thing for him in this situation. TJ held it together well and Greer was always vigilant and steely.

Great idea, naturally flowing narrative - great fun reading it.

Thanks so much for the kind words. I basically lived inside this story for a whole week while I wrote it and my friends kept telling me I was totally "gone" sometimes. I'm glad it felt plausible to you and that the characters' voices sounded right. I think there's a hero inside everyone of us, and it was fun discovering them all in the Destiny crew. Thanks again.
