Fic: Life Is... (McKay/Sheppard, background Lorne/Zelenka, PG)

Title: Life Is...
Author: [livejournal.com profile] ldyanne
Recipient: [livejournal.com profile] lilyleia78
Pairing: McKay/Sheppard; background Zelenka/Lorne
Rating: PG
Word count: 26,000
Warnings: None
Notes: Dear lilyleia78: Normally I wouldn't warn about this, because I think part of a story is taking the journey with the characters, but you specifically asked for happy fic (and no Death fic). I wanted you to know that while it might look like there's a major character death, please trust me and keep reading. I'm all about the happy endings! I hope you like it, I had a blast writing it.

Also, thanks to my beta (you know who you are) for your help with this fic. Your turn around was amazing and your comments and suggestions helped to make this a better fic.

Summary: John meets a teenage runaway who reminds him of someone from his past. When he tries to help her, it changes his life forever.

I thought the way the little tells (Keyla's blue eyes, the black belt, her tech savvy, the urge to fly and the skateboard under the bed...) added up was great.

I'm glad they got to go home in the end.

Shame about O'Neill's cabin, though. At least no fish were harmed.
;)

LOL

I'm pretty sure no fish were harmed!

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed the story. I had such a great time with Keyla, I'm pretty sure she's causing chaos in John and Rodney's life in Atlantis, but at least they're all together.
