Good morning, a lovely story rec for you!

I apologize to the person who recced this story on my flist or rpage, I have lost the rec. I do this thing where I open a story in a new tab and get around to reading it eventually, so I forget the pedigree in the interim. It was written in 2007 and posted to Wraitbait, so the odds that I'd ever have found it myself without the rec is nil. So, THANK YOU for reccing this, whoever did that.

It's a McShep SGA fusion with Avatar: the Last Airbender, but you don't need much in the way of knowledge of A:tLA to enjoy the story. It is a fact of SGA fandom that we love plunking our boys down in AUs and letting them go be themselves, no matter what the situation. Because the ending is just *OH OF COURSE*. I'm going to re-read this one about a hundred times.
