Well I'm really glad you included it...it was perfect.
So far, your characterisation of Ronan is my favourite by far.
>>like he's somehow becoming, or at least getting a glimpse of the Ronon Dex he would have been if he'd never joined up and never been shaped (or warped, depending on how you want to see it) by that military ethos.<<
*nods vigorously*
That's what I got too. In fact, it kind of inspired me to do some research into Pederasty...seems it was widely practiced on every continent at some point in history...and in some places even today. Though I guess Ronan doesn't entirely qualify due to his age.
>>The Ronon/Rodney relationship is really taking on an interesting life of its own for me. Hopefully further parts will answer some of the questions you have. Or...not, but at least hopefully keep you curious *g*<<
Woo! Can't wait for these further parts you speak of ;)
Off to read part 4 now in the hope of answered questions...
