it's gen, it's het, it's slash, it's a floor wax!
Summary: Cold and flu season, like many other things, sucks more in space.
Warnings: A for Angst. The astute reader will notice that I hardly ever warn for angst, and might then imagine I mean rather a *lot* of angst. That's your warning. All sales final.

Special thanks to cesperanza for beta ("You're at about an eight, and I need you at about a four...") and as per usual to marythefan for encouragement and general evil ("What, you think I'm going to tell you *not* to do it?")

"You’re standing here telling us that half the galaxy, not to mention our friends, could fall over dead by Christmas, and you’re bringing us what, exactly, to deal with this problem? Amoxicillin and chicken soup?"

I hate you I hate this story and I bloody well HATE my random music!!! At least I mean that no I don't hate this story or you, I just hate that it made me cry because the part when Ronon...and my stupid fucking computer just HAD to put on Rob Thomas All that I am and yeah...balling...and if you don't know the song then damn...it's probably all for the best and last night when I got to this exact spot I stopped and put it down and went to bed cause I just couldn't bare the though and yah stupid I know but damnit you really are a fantastic writer and I envy and so don't hate and okai I'm going to go and actually finish the damn thing now...as soon as the stupid song Stops.

If I read the word Ronon one more time and don't cry I think I may actually be happy.

Alas I finally finished this and so many people have said so many of the things I'm thinking...mainly you're very brave for killing RONON!!! *takes a breath* and for not making it a happy ending in which...that person comes magically back to life and the flu just vanishes in a swirl of Carson genius or hell even Rodney genius...

And now...apart from being disgustingly glad it's all over and that I DIDN'T read the end at Work I'm going to bury myself in Ronon fic and remind myself that as heartbreakingly beautifully realistic (all in all within the SGA universe of course) this is it's Just a Story.
