Sheppard is really battered up here. The emotion of this chapter was so palpable I felt I could touch it. The friendship you show between Ronon and John is so deep, it's beautiful. But, I'm really worried about how injured John is as he's taken a physical and emotional thumping in this story. I almost feel like I'm trying to push him on and up from a distance - 'Go on, you can do it' I find myself chanting especially for Ronon as well who worked so hard to get Sheppard to shelter in this chapter. It's impossible to read this story and not get drawn into the emotional side of it.
Like Tridget, I wait for every chapter desperately wishing it to appear on the screen, then I read quickly and then start the wait and search again. So, here I go til Saturday, waiting and watching.
