Why This Must Be Read: An episode tag to 'Broken Ties', the story explores Ronon's reaction to having temporarily abandoned Atlantis and become a slave to the Wraith after going to join Tyre and his old team. It's very much hurt comfort, showing him grappling with what happened and feeling broken, and how his relationships with, in particular, Rodney, and John, help him through this. Rodney's his lover in this but without it being particularly romantic, and, at the end, it's left unclear what his relationship with John is, but to me it reads as comfort, and a healing of their friendship. It's beautifully written, with pain but also redemption, and gives us the feels that canon glossed over. Powerful.
