Oh! And I forgot to mention the videos and both Rodney and Ronon's surprise backstory (and man would I have loved to have heard the conversation that they had on the podium) and Rodney calling John out (and I think that conversation (and my usual John/Rodney filters) is what gave me repressed!John though looking at it I think it is more friends-changing freakout) and Cadman and Teyla riding herd as well. Ok, backing away from the keyboard now and going to cuddle some more. . .

Thank you! I'm glad you liked it.

This was a story where it was really hard to articulate John's feelings clearly, because John wasn't very in touch with them himself. That's always a stumbling block. I was also trying to move especially gently around that whole John/Rodney thing, because he *is* jealous in a whole host of ways, but not sexually jealous. But then, how do you work that into the story, knowing that any time you make John say he's not interested in Rodney, it suddenly sounds defensive, and like he totally is interested in Rodney? *g* It was tricky!

But on the other hand, there's something totally cool about writing a story with a friendship that other people can then slash if they want to *g* Bring your own subtext!

Anyway, thanks for the feedback!
