Dude, I haven't thought much about Atlantis in years, but you keep bringing the good fic I have to read. And this is good--better than good, great--and as usual I love your depictions of John and Elizabeth so much more than what we saw on the show.
For some reason, this clause is my favorite: looking forward to the easy way she always touched his arm when she walked next to him, like any day now she was going to tuck her hand around the crook of his elbow.
It's so...them, somehow.
Oh, and this: Elizabeth is, apparently, a better person, though he already knew that. somehow made me flash to an exchange Londo and G'Kar have near the end of the series, where they're talking about Londo risking his life for G'Kar, and Londo says that G'Kar would've done the same, then G'Kar says, "Yes, but I am a better person." And now I have an image of John with Centauri hair in my head, and although it's a terrible look for him it's also kind of entertaining, so thank you for sending me down that train of thought. :D
