Poor Lorne! Worst day ever! But I'm glad that everything turned out all right, and now I'm very curious about Cam. Love to hear more about his back history and I just felt so much for him when Sheppard offered him his new position!

Thank you! My vague back story for this AU Cam is that unlike the happy, well-adjusted and loved canon one we know from the SG-1 series, this Cam's parents died when he was little, leaving him at the mercy of the foster system. I figured that without the stability and unconditional love of his real family, Cameron's tendency to impatience and impulsiveness became a full-blown erratic and carelessly defiant streak that ended up hurting his career. I really enjoyed the idea of this Cam being able to prosper with the right guidance. :)

I love that idea. I am a sucker for emotional vulnerable characters, and you made him deliciously so. If you ever feel like writing another sequel, I vote for Cam-centric! :)

Oh yes! I second this! Dragonwhisperer!Cam!

I actually do have a sequel in my head that's all about Cameron, so I'm delighted you'd be interested. :D The only problem is having the time to write it.

Funnily enough, if I were to write a sequel, it would be all about Cameron. I have an idea, it's just a question of having the time. :) I'm thrilled that you'd be interested in reading it, though!
