Why this must be read:
A stand-out example of the vast array of horror possibilities in the Stargate fandom. While the horror elements in this one are a lot more gentle and ethereal than other choices, this story struck me as more shiver-inducing/spine-tingling for the heavy sense of sorrow along with the horror. The reader immediately feels the heavy heart that the ATA-gene carrier residents of Atlantis feel as they see the shadows of their dead around their city. As John sees Sumner out of the corner of his eye and has Elizabeth hovering over his shoulder, Friendshipper gives us a look into the heart of Atlantis as it cracks with the loss of her residents and the remnants of her enemies. Vastly known for her action/adventure epics, Friendshipper is no less an adept at emotionally-driven pieces and grief-stricken examinations of loss. This fic will leave you with a hole in your heart, tissues in your hand, and a quiver on your spine.
Rodney pauses, reluctantly, and looks over his shoulder. For a minute John thinks he's not going to answer, but, predictably unpredictable, he does. "You asked me a question, a long time ago." He breaks off, wets his lips. "I just figured, you know, after all we've been through and ... stuff, I owed you an honest answer. So, yeah, back when you asked me that ... that thing in the lounge -- The answer's yes."
John still wouldn't have the slightest clue what he's talking about, except then he notices that Rodney's not really looking at him, but rather, just off to his left -- looking directly at Elizabeth.
And Elizabeth, he sees in his peripheral vision, has raised her head and is looking back at Rodney with her blank, unreflective eyes.
Rodney drops his gaze, and, shoulders slumped in weariness, he leaves. After a moment, Elizabeth rises in perfect silence and glides after him.
It takes John some time to lower his watchful gaze from the doorway and return to his reports. After another little while, Carson comes to keep him company.
