Wow. I love this! Even injured and exhausted, and barely able to walk, Sheppard is still setting traps and slowly wearing Gene down. That was so intense, and the nonstop action had me breathless. I really liked how you bounced between John's POV in the base and Rodney's POV watching the life signs detector and tracking their movements from the outside. Ronon searching for a way in even though he knows there isn't one there is so Ronon! All the characters sounded perfect.
I'm amazed at the research and thought put into this too - I loved reading about each trap and how Sheppard used what was around him to build each one. I can't imagine having to come up with all of that from scratch. Loved them huddled together trying to keep warm, and then the infirmary time at the end! Sheppard would definitely have some freakishly weird Gene nightmares after that experience. And the farming game - perfect! This was gritty and intense and full of whump. Thank you so much for this story!! I'm absolutely thrilled with what you did with the prompt. :D
