Cool story, thanks for writing

Brilliant. Astounding. Amazing. Breath-taking. Hilarious. And all those other positive words I'm forgetting right now. This is seriously one of the best stories I've read in a long time. I'm also pretty sure that everyone says this in their reviews, but I couldn't just not review. You have an amazing talent for keeping characters in character and keeping a story interesting even though it is filled with so much science terms my head is still spinning. Every single chapter was fun/interesting/well-written and had something important to add to the story line. I could honestly hear McKay whining about regulations and see John's eyerolls at his 'puffed out chipmunk cheeks' :D! You did an amazing job with this.

Loved this! Sets up Sheppard and McKay as well as Carson perfectly

I have no words for how amazingly breathtaking your story is. The witty banter between McKay and Shepherd had me in stitches the entire time, or on the edge of my seat, whichever the situation detailed at the time. You drew me in with your very first chapter and you wound everything up so neatly by the end, even tying it into the TV Series. I bow to your greatness.

Well I suppose I have a FEW words. X3

first read this story ages ago and stumbled across it again today

definitely one of my favourite AUs and upon noticing that it doesn't have anywhere near the number of reviews it should have decided that I should leave one

I have to say that I love this, the not-stalking, accidentally becoming friends and highway chase scene. Though I don't think SG3 really fits as their team designation, probably because in the show SG3 was always a team of marines. SG2 would have been more fitting in my opinion.

Also despite this being in the angst/adventure categories I found it rather hilarious, which may be why I like it so much.

Lovely story!

First, I already commented on the last chapter so I'm posting this here, sorry. I have to say I really loved your story. I usually don't like AUs that don't also involve someone from 'our' reality but this was a fabulous story. This probably is stupid but I could just imagine the story being over and suddenly flashing to our Atlantis to see Rodney bickering with Sheppard and Carson and suddenly saying: "You know, I don't know why I put up with you. If we had met under ANY other circumstances I doubt we'd go near each other." It's stupid I know but your story made me reflect on the relationships between the characters and think how much my views of them depended on the circumstances but your story showed that isn't really what matters. People are changed by experiences and their situations but a person cannot fully change their colors no matter what. Thank you so much for your story. I honestly don't think I could come up with an AU if I tried.

I have never read a story before that made me simultaneously amused, saddened, angry, terrified, touched, pleased, nervous, and ecstatic. Your take on the relationship between Carson, Sheppard, and Rodney was...the most unique and touching view of their friendship I have encountered to date. But at the same time I was angered and saddened that Rodney couldn't bring himself to trust them at all quickly. But what gave me hope was the fact that though Rodney could make himself hard to deal with both Carson and Sheppard stuck by him through thick and through thin. The only regret I have on finishing your lovely piece of inspiration is that we didn't get much insight into why Carson chose them to befriend when no one else did...

I really love this story. You really managed to bring out all of the best parts of the Sheppard and McKay friendship: the Major's protectiveness and single-minded duty to his people, and McKay's . . . well, the scene where he lied about where the picture's were brought up Koyla flashbacks. Which was awesome, by the way.

Thanks again for the amazing fic.

I really enjoyed this story, one of the best AU's I've come across

Oh my god this chapter had me CACKLING! That banter at the bar with the tequila? Fucking awesome!

Completely brilliant. Loved it!

:D :D :D :D :D :D AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME! Just reread this baby. Gotta say it's AWESOME! Totally loving it. Every single little bit of it. The Rodney/Shep interactions were SO realistic. I was still holding out for some slash, but the friendship was so awesome that I forgot about it halfway through. :D :D :D :D Thanks for writing this behemoth!

Excellent work; I liked your take on McKay and Sheppard's friendship.

Great story :)
