Woo, thank you Santa! This story is amazing in so many ways! I love your John POV, he's very aware of his own flaws - such as not knowing whether to hug Teyla when he might bop her with the Nintendo controller. :D But he's also a good leader, talking Ford and Kanaan around from their plan to his plan, which involves not shooting him, thanks very much.

And yay, Aiden Ford! I did a little seat dance when I figured out who "Odin" was! An awesome, plotty adventure with peril and past friends coming back and Kanaan being a real person with skills and issues - \o/ So many things that make me happy!

Also, Ronon's line, "Sheppard stabbed himself" completely cracked me up. I can just hear him saying it. :D Thanks so much, secret Santa person!
