Pocket Review: Sin of Omission by Jamie

Sin of Omission by Jamie

Summary: Some things just won't stay buried. Teyla, Ronon, Sheppard (Some Shep/Teyla, of course)

Rating: PG-13 for some language and violence

Disclaimer: I think we all know that I don't own "Stargate: Atlantis." I'm just playing with the characters a little bit.

Note: Thanks to Alli for beta reading this mess. :)

Note 2: Yeah, it's a WIP. I think there will be six parts to this. I'm not finished, but I'm close.

Part One

The worst moments of your life were always the ones that stuck around. The happy memories occasionally showed up to remind you of a time when your life didn't suck. The worst moments of your life were always the ones that stuck around. The happy memories occasionally showed up to remind you of a time when your life didn't suckThe bad ones tended to linger, playing like a movie reel over and over to show you what an asshole you were and how every thing that had gone wrong in your life was completely your own fault.

If it was something you would rather forget -- losing your brother as a boy, watching your friends die in Afghanistan, killing your C.O. before a Wraith can finish sucking the life out of him -- you could bet it'd be the special feature playing in your mind every time you let your guard down or your attention wander.

Memories were a bitch.

Sheppard once saw a movie where a guy had his memory erased to get rid of all traces of an ex-girlfriend. The movie hadn't been that bad, but John couldn't help but think that if a crappy relationship was the worst thing you had in your memories, you were damn lucky and should just suck it up.

John had some really horrible memories pretty much on constant replay, but every one of them now took a back seat to the vision before him.

Pocket Reviewer: I really enjoyed this story. It gets into the head of John Sheppard, and since I'm a real Shep fan. A very good read for all Atlantis fans. Well written, you don't fall over bad grammar or punctuation gone mad. Easy to get into and the writing is in the really like the character.
