tut tut, reading when you should be working! Umm, how about: I read very quickly so hardly any time lost? Honest, guv!
Anyway, given the chance to re-read at my leisure, I still love it.
Lorne continually passing out at the beginning is a neat device to slowly feed us info about this universe. Mitchell is obviously a big change, but Slightly Feistier Keller is a small one, so we're as unsure as Lorne as to how different it is. And he stays off-kilter with the phone, Dr Mitchell, and the colour of the wormhole right to the end.
I find it hilarious that they're so nonchalant about duplicates popping in all the time, and Zelenka's "You again." just sums that up beautifully. And I'm thinking someone in Atlantis must be running a book on who's most likely to drop in next (... and Zelenka keeps winning the pot.) In fact, Zelenka's cameo for the win anyway in this story.
In passing, liked the lines tells himself to stop being paranoid. That’s what Atlantis has McKay for, after all. and Cadman used to tell him it was everyone’s biggest complaint about Atlantis, how often they got interrupted in the middle of really good sex to go save the city.
Awwww, you bring back Ford. And Lorne gets a chance to fly.
And I adore how Cam sees how buzzed Lorne is after the dogfight and thinks, "Oh yeah, gimme some of that." :-)

All in all, it's a delight. Many thanks!
