What a wonderful description of Evan's first year in Atlantis. I think you've really nailed the characterizations here. I love the Evan/David friendship and Evan seeking out both Ronon and Teyla for adivce.

"You keep trying to fit Milky Way pegs into Atlantis-shaped holes."

"I'm sorry, but Milky Way pegs are all I have to work with."

What a perfect description of a new transfer to Atlantis.

Also? The sketch of Evan Solo is my favorite :)

Thank you! All of the Star Wars stuff happened accidentally as soon as Sheppard said, "Padawan." And then, of course, I had to do the sketches.

This made me so happy. I just... I mean, I love the pictures so so much, but not only that.. the story was absolutely wonderful, so many awesome lines and such beautiful moments. I literally smiled from beginning to end. That may have happened to me before reading a crack story, but not ever with something like this that is plotty. Also did I mention the pictures are just fantastic? And you write really, really adorably cute drunks. <3<3

Thank you so much! I admit I had a lot of fun with this, especially the sketches. And I love it when I can laugh while I'm writing something (and glad I made you smile, too).

Heh, For some reason drunk Sheppard was really easy to imagine.

I promised myself that I wouldn't gush as much in public with this, but the little sketches are amazing and I can't help myself from freely admitting I got to squeal like a little girl all over again. Yoda!Teyla is particularly excellent and I want to steal Parrish for my own nefarious purposes.
You know I love it, right?

&hearts Thank you so much for helping me with it! Glad you like the artwork, too.

I think we all have designs on Parrish :) (er, also if you want the drawing for something go ahead)

Thank you! Haha, I tried answering the quiz as Rodney just to see and he came up as Emperor Palpatine :)
