Oh, this was great! I usually have an aversion to the first person narrative in fanfiction, but I trust you, and it totally paid off. Poor John!
I loved, loved, LOVED the Shakespearian Genii--cracked up like crazy.
And then I also really adored the "waiting", because that was just perfect. From the sheer amount of time where your mind is just taking you to all the wrong places, to Operation: Hellraiser, to the final crescendo when Keller finally walks out the doors and Sheppard realizes he's already thinking about "next time"--I really think you created a very real, very personal-feeling, set of scenes. Easily one of the best written descriptions of the agony of being in a waiting room that I've read. Totally brilliant.

Whole story was just wonderful!
