Why this must by read:

A friend recced this fic to me, and she said it was "Weir. Very Weir." She was absolutely right. Sabine gets the characters, and the dialogue, so completely spot-on she could be writing the show itself. This piece is an insightful look at how Elizabeth feels about being on her side of the briefing table, watching the rest of the team explore without her.

(As an aside, I always think it's a mark of a great Atlantis fic-writer if they can make their McKay actually sound like McKay, even when he's not the focus of the story. It's harder than it sounds. Sabine's McKay definitely sounds like McKay.)
