Awesome story!

Wow.

Really, with a story that has this much emotional impact and such a perfect resonance with Rodney's character, I'd almost rather leave it at that-but I have to say, this is the first time I've seen anyone write convincing McKay/Keller from his POV, and it's a far more convincing explanation of his attraction for her than I ever thought I'd see.

But mostly, just an utterly fantastic bit of writing. Thanks so much for sharing!

I sincerely hope there's more to this story. Beautifully written - it brought tears to my eyes reading it. *sniffles* Alert/Favourite set.

Hoping there's more!

"The others... did they see it, what he saw? Maybe they did, but they didn't love her for it..."

"The lights dimmed; we're almost alone here, lying in the dark together, Rodney thought."

How beautiful is that? Truly. Those lines are just soul-wrenching. I don't know whether to high-five you or yell at you for making me feel so heartbroken as I read those words, but they were so full of an understanding of life and loss that I thank you for penning them.

Really strong piece.

Beautiful story! I especially liked the part where Rodney tries to describe Jenn and at the end he simply comes up with the word, human.

I can't believe you did that!:) You have to let us know if Keller lives or dies. But a great story over all.

What ending! Please!

wow...that was so heart wrenching. SO well written. I feel so bad for Rodney. The friendship between Rodney and Sheppard was so well written too. I really hope you write more. I really really hope that by some miracle she wakes up and gets through the illness and they get their chance. *tear* so well done.

Very, very good. Personable, honest, sad...good.

that was so sad and emotional! great job!
