Ferryman 2008-03-12 ch 1,	abuseI really liked this. Interesting spin and I liked the way everything panned out. Ferryman x
Hettie 2006-07-11 ch 1,	abuseThis story is an excellent summary of why the 2nd season was so disappointing. Instead of building up the relationships developed in season 1, they completely changed the characters at a very basic level. The complaints expressed by McKay in the story are all valid. Sadly, the most destructive change was in the relationship of Sheppard and McKay. They made Sheppard a Lothario, and McKay an idiot. Thanks for sharing. (Sorry, I didn't mean to vent on you.)
GraceHanna 2006-06-13 ch 1,	abuseI thought this story was well written. In my opinion, the "harsh view" you talk of, fits in very well with what's cannon for the show. I agree that McKay would never actually leave Atlantis unless forced to. However, the view that McKay has of everyone around him could easily be the view of an outsider and brings to light how they're becoming more like the enemy they fight. And this is true in the cannon universe. Dr. Weir has even voiced that she has thought twice about the things they have done. Unfortunately, its only after the act has been completed that she shows any sign of regret. It reminds me of a SG1 fic I read. Where Sam overhears others talking about her abandoning her post during a battle to help Col. O'Neill and how that act got others killed. She always thought she had done the right thing all these years, and suddenly listening to others opinions she realizes just how wrong she's been. Oh, and just so you know, your story forced me to register with (even though I'm not gonna write any stories) just so I could leave a review for you. (It's all good.)
Rodlox 2006-06-08 ch 1,	abusehi. oh...my. this is a wonderful story. AU or not, I believe it! very amusing - my Thor muse was whistling innocently when Sam commented on abduction. :) words fail me in adequately saying how highly I feel about this tale. wish I could be more help than that; sorry. have nice days.
Shakia 2006-05-24 ch 1,	abuseTime for a review! I really loved how you wrote McKay and Sam, very them-ish with the caring and Sam's reaction. Specially loved where he poked her to make sure she was real. Tee-hee. x) I also do agree with some of the moments you picked out, but all in all I think the show does go through how they felt wrong for what they did afterwards. Cept with Trinity...and with Michael. That had me wanting to hug the guy. Eps, and an evil Weir. I fear o.o Good job with that writting part too. But at the end, I don't think McKay would go offworld to live. He preffers putting his mind to use with airconditioning and technology :P Unless he was just going offworld temporarily. Which brings up the question, can there be more please? hopeful poke I can see Rodney working at the SGC, that'd be neat like. Again though, loved how Sam went looking for Rodney and his speech about things and how you wrote this. :3 Very cool.
Bob Regent 2006-05-23 ch 1,	abuseIve been thinking about some of this myself, the fact that Rodney gets it in the neck destroying a Solar system but Sam didn't. I like rodney and he does seem to get the rough end of the stick soemtimes, I'm just waiting for him to punch Sheppard.
angw 2006-05-23 ch 1,	abuseA very challenging piece. I like the points that were raised about Atlantis losing it's moral compass. The candor from Rodney and Sam help is very interesting.
neptune60 2006-05-23 ch 1,	abuseThis was excellent. "Why survive if it meant abandoning the very qualities that made life worth living and separate you from your enemy". This really sums it up how I feel about many of the decisions that were made in season 2. I expected Weir to be the voice of reason and follow some sort of moral code but to see her toss it completelly aside has been truley disappointing and I have lost all respect for the character. Its also quite disturbing how easily the others follow her questionable orders without any discussion about the morality of her decisions. Even in war there has to be rules and some sort of moral code.
dahan 2006-05-22 ch 1,	abuseHuh, that was something else. That was darker than I expected it to be from the beginning, but it certainly doesn't dissappoint in terms of being an AU. Oddly enough, it seems rather sad (especially for Elizabeth IMO) or at the very least casts a darker shadow on some of the eps. Not complaining, it was a pretty neat read.
Denethor's Angel 2006-05-22 ch 1,	abuseThank you for writing this story! I must admit that I lost the little love I had for Elizabeth in that episode. I mean having a citizen of Earth, a civilian tortured by some alien Sheppard pick-up on some planet... that's a big no no in my book. And your story hint at that. I mean, wouldn't she face the international tribunal for war crimes or something, on Earth for doing something like that. And thank you for the Carson bit, because if my memory serves me well, only McKay has ever comment that the Wraith aren't necessary evil, that we were their food and it was to both Elizabeth and Carson in episode Hot Zone... I hope you will write a sequel to this...
Reefgirl 2006-05-22 ch 1,	abuseWow this is good stuff, nice one
Silverthreads 2006-05-22 ch 1,	abuseI can definite;y see this scenario. It did seem to me as well that some of the decisions devised by the writers were quite vile and most unbecoming. I have lost respect for Elizabeth especially. Torture is never a positive option. As for Beckett, I think he truly believs that the Wraith-ness is a medicallt repairable condition. If, say, Retinitis Pigmentosa could be resolved by genetic manipulation no one would decry it as anything but a welcome accomplishment. That the Wraith can only survive by devouring humans implies that their existance is precarious at best. This is far more ambiguous than the above, though.
acer-sigma 2006-05-22 ch 1,	abuseInteresting story, I've thought that some of the actions of the crew in the second season were dubious at best, its nice to see someone has fleshed it out into a good story. Hope you do a follow up concerning the investigation and reactions to Mckay's defection.
