Summary: They find the Runner on the planet with the deadly sun. He's thin and dirty, and not particularly interested in talking.
A canon-divergent AU with Runner!John ending up on Sateda, a great concept and very well done. There are different levels of culture shock involved here and, unlike the reader, the PoV character Ronon only knows about half of them, adding an extra layer. The series stands fine as it is, but I'm sad it never got to this 'verse's version of "Reunion".
Yuletide fic finished! More words than I expected, but I think it's okay. Now editing.
Tomorrow our new government will be sworn in and there will be protests. They start at 8:00am, terribly early for me, bäh. I'm going with LB and he's not even home yet, so we decided to meet up a bit later and then join the protest because it'll definitely go on for hours. I haven't been to a protest in ten years or so... I'll go because it's important, but I'm not really looking forward to it. I'll see how it goes.

Date: 2017-12-18 11:21 pm (UTC)Two things about protests bug me:
a. Wheelchair height means it's a butt fest and also claustrophobic
b. I'm never sure that it means anything.
But sometimes it feels so wonderful to be among like minded people.
AND! Thanks for these lovely recs.

Date: 2017-12-18 11:38 pm (UTC)It did go surprisingly well, at least from my perspective. Colder than expected. I don't think (most) protests have any direct effect, but I think it's important and meaningful to show that there is a large group of people opposing these politicians and coming policies, if nothing else as moral support for those who will suffer from them. At least I hope so.
