Oh oh, I am SO glad!! *heartclench* Skylarks broke me too (RODNEYYY) and Freedom? I just have no words. Out of curiosity - did you understand the undercurrent of John's death and what it meant to Rodney? Because you had read two other stories at that point so I'm just wondering if that connected for you. It's so poignant and perfect.
Oh you should DEFINITELY marathon the series! Eeee! It is independent from SG-1, yes. They explain the things you must know, and there are inevitably references to SG-1 but not many, and it doesn't harm your experience at all to not know the full backstory. Well I guess the one thing you should know is that Rodney started as a guest star on SG-1 and had a huge crush on their team leader, Samantha Carter, lol. I think he has a thing for Airforce Lieutenant Colonels ;)
To help with the what-they-look-like thing... have my favorite cast photo! And a minispam!
From left to right: Teyla Emmagen, Ronon Dex, Rodney McKay, Carson Beckett, Elizabeth Weir, John Sheppard
Rodney the adorable!
John the equally adorable!
Aww, team.
More adorable! (This is actually Joe and David, the actors, behind the scenes.)
