Wonderful! But once again Koyla got off too too easily. Drat!

Does the AU Rodney know Elizabeth is carrying his child? I don't want him to die. I'm a sucker for those happy endings, but that doesn't look like it can happen in this reality.

I'm in awe of your ideas and this is reinforced by the quality of your writing. This story is extraordinarily good.

I'm about 3/4 the way through this. It's great! We've got Rodney and his desperate (and a little depressing) situation, Elizabeth and her deal, Sheppard working to help these people. And you've even remembered about entropic cascade failure! I'm looking forward to reading the rest and am very happy that you posted this on (And I realize you posted a long time ago, but I'm slowly going through your archive and the archives of other great authors as time permits. Your stuff rocks!)

Fantastic story. All the elements blended well together.

I read this from a recommendation on the stargategenrec live journal.

Wow, that was intense! As you say, somewhat dark, but totally gripping and superbly written.

I like that you put a lot of effort into resolving the story with interations between a various number of characters, long after the action was over. I was really unhappy with Sheppard for lying to alternate Elizabeth about Rodney though.

Excellent story. I don't like AU stories as a rule, but this one sucked me in and I ended up thoroughly enjoying it.

Absolutely loved it, darkness and all.

I enjoyed this story, I'm not a weir/mckay shipper myself but i think the relationship was written well. Also sheppard was dead in that reality so thats all good. Looking forward to reading your other stories.

Good story even the second time around.

Different universe, different crcumstances. DIfferent outcomes. Obviously.
This was... fantastic. You did a superlative job, m'dear.

the finish to this chapter is so taut and strong. And tragic. Excelletn writing.

Jesus, Rodney.
*huggles the dying woobie*
He is such a hero. *turns around and growls at McKay clone* I said you're a hero, so leave it!
Heh.
This is awesome.
