Applause!! I love, LOVE! first person narrative. Love your John voice! And a grimy and dirty Sheppard becoming all feral because they won't let him go back for the rest of his team fills me with warm fuzzies!

And Rodney, trying to make Sheppard promise he won't kill himself in moral support next time they're in a death defying situation, aaawww. :)

Great hurt. Great comfort. Great story. ♥
