Oh that's just lovely! BS will adore it I'm sure. Pitch perfect :-)

Thank you! cep xxx

Oh, cep. That is just so beautiful. ♥
Thank you so much.

I love the gentle warmth you create - the sensations of comfort & peace as Rodney sits with his mug & his purring companion. It's wonderful to hear his memories, & you build such a wonderfully complete picture of what has happened to everyone. (I love that Ronon is a poet!)
But there's something missing - someone missing... & then, of course, John is there - at Rodney's side, as always.
And everything is complete & perfect & as it should be. ♥

Stunning, absolutely stunning.
Thank you!
*hugs*
I am so lucky to have you as my friend. ♥

Oh, & I love that you used one of my favourite Blake songs too! ♥

Yay! I'm so glad you enjoyed it. I'd never really thought about the boys post-series in any detailed fashion before this, but it just seemed right when I started thinking about a topic for a ficlet for you. And I definitely took inspiration from the loving atmosphere you create so beautifully in stories like MM36. ♥

I hope you've had a lovely day! *hugs*

PS I love that song too!!
PPS O keeps complaining about the lack of SPN this week...

[bluespirit_star]

Thank you again - it only gets better on re-reading. I just love the gentle pace, & the warmth of the atmosphere you create with Rodney reminiscing like that. ♥

Well, I think O is completely justified- it is outrageous to keep us waiting like this! *g*

[goddess47]

Oh..... yes..... so very nice..... I adore seeing them together for years and years....

You give the best birthday presents!

Thank you! cep xxx

Oh this is so lovely. Bittersweet, because peace in Pegasus would not be easily won. And seeing everyone moving on but safe and happy--you have to love that! Very nice!

:) Thanks! cep xxx

Beautiful. A satisfying postseries story, which has actually made me cry. I think because of the contentment as well as the feeling of love.

PS. Hmm, I sure wouldn't mind reading that story about the rest of the team being MIA--with Rodney fretting, but working his ass off and totally responsible for the rescue.

I'm so glad you enjoyed it! I like to think this is how our boys will end up... ♥. As for the team MIA story.... *ponders* We'll see... ;) cep xxx
