Stargate Atlantis Secret Santa 2012

This story blossoms through its deep roots--set into the many layers of relationships on Atlantis; the special connections of team members; life on Cantara; John and Rodney's relationships as friends, team leader and member, lovers. I'll second the praise of others here, and add further that is was great to see how John was able to balance some sly caresses and teasing of Rodney during their initial stay on Catara, all without ever overwhelming Rodney's composure, overstepping decorum, or losing sight of their professional goals for being on the planet. A credit to the character we admire and your skills depicting him and his interactions. Rodney rocked, too!
