Gingercake 2008-05-05 ch 1,	abuse... wow. That was so real. Utterly believable, heartbreaking, tearjerking, aww-worthy... And it's making me gush, which means it has to be good ^_^
ana 2008-03-30 ch 1, anon.	abusecrikey. loved the bit by the duck pond.
saphiretwin369 2008-03-23 ch 1,	abuseWow. That was a really go story and I love how it was in the letter to her mom. Very sad too in some parts. I swear I thought he was dead at first and was about ready to cry. Absolutely amazing!
Space1Traveler 2008-03-21 ch 1,	abuseI could hardly read it for crying. A 10 hankie, for sure. I'm glad it wasn't a death fic too. Thanks it was really, really, really good.
Cloud 2008-03-14 ch 1, anon.	abuseNow i can't help but imagine a scene where the narrator goes to Atlantis as a doctor, and Rodney, upon seeing her, exclaims "I thought i told you to shoot them!"
sirtechlocke 2008-02-17 ch 1,	abuseOh thank God! In my opinion you ended this story correctly. I really enjoyed this little one-shot. You did a very good job not only of showing McKay and Sheppard from someone elses POV, but your characters 'letter to mom'... very poignant. Very well done. Your on my list and this story is one of my Favorites!
LinziDay 2007-12-31 ch 1,	abuseHoly cow! What an amazing story. I LOVE the grumpy old men thing... and the image on them beside the dick pomd doing the head touch made me want to cry. I swear, my heart stuttered a bit when I read "He died not long after that." Thank goodness you didn't end it there! Great, great read. You've got a gift for the friendship stuff.
Lee Pyro 2007-12-31 ch 1,	abuseWow, this was an amazing story. McKay would make a wonderful grump old man. You captured Sheppard and McKay's friendship splendidly. The little bit at the end of trying to get into the stargate program made a beautiful ending. Keep writing.
Duchess67 2007-12-28 ch 1,	abuseThank you for taking the route you did, I also can't handle the ones that leave you so sad you contemplate suicide. You did real good here! Would you consider an addendum to this one one day? Maybe showing Anne making it to the Pegasus galaxy after all? wistful look
sonofjello 2007-12-02 ch 1,	abuseGood work! The idea to use a third party-first person approach to the story lent it a wonderful and insightful view of two characters that we all too often see inside of. To have the chance to look at them again from the outside and see how they affect other people's perceptions was highly refreshing. This story reminds me that perhaps we don't know ourselves as well as we should. Seeing the younger buddies at the end displaying the same habits as the older pair was helpful in conveying Ann's conviction that they were the same people; but a little bit of a let down in so far as there was no sense of gained humility in them from the experience. I know that's really just me wanting to admire my cake and eat it too, but such can still be possible, right?
sparklyshimmer2010 2007-11-02 ch 1,	abuseoh my god! i swear i thought he was dead! i realy want to cry right noe, especially cause of the happy ending. that was just wonderfully written! very very good story.
Vires-Strength 2007-10-31 ch 1,	abuseThat was amaizing, breathtaking, brilliant! You did a great job at capturing both John and Rodney. That has to be one of the best fics I've read. I love the ending!
DarthReign 2007-10-30 ch 1,	abuseI am more of an SG1 than an Atlantis fan, but this was a really good, well-written piece. Great work!
Starlite1 2007-10-16 ch 1,	abuseLol, that was brilliant!! Just so like them:D
Windrider 2007-10-07 ch 1, anon.	abuseWhat an excellent story! I really enjoyed the third party POV in which the story was written. I also enjoyed the way you keep the reader guessing on whether it is a '40 years down the line' or something catastrophic happening during the present timeline.
