Very nice. You have a wonderful ability to describe the mundane: the minutest movements explained perfectly and in a way that adds to the mood of the piece. Just lovely.

"...but there was darkness in her eyes that Rodney could not read."

I particularly liked this line. Subtle yet telling.

Excellent job.

I must have first read this on one of those evil days. This is so touching without being sentimental. I love how it plays on Rodney's discomfort about what happened yet still emphasizes how vital he was/is. Without those hands, no amount of heroics on Sheppard's part would have mattered.

great fic!

This is very sweet, and a great start to your fanfic career!

This is such a sweet happy story compared to what we see in episodes, much appreciated. :)
