Thank you!

I skimmed through the actual pseudo-rape.

Yeah, that would be the scene that took me three days to write :)

I loved that John was misreading Ronon's reaction as disappointment (I imagine it was concern and some guilt).

Definitely. And a little bit of wanting to help and knowing that with John it's actually incredibly difficult to help, not least because John has such high standards for how well he should be holding things together, so he can't let go and be helped.
