Oh, very cool! Yay. I really like Weir and her horrible position. Initially, she had to feel okay to be leaving because she expected to come back. Everyone did, really, because they knew about the new version of the promethius, and new that eventually, the ship would come for them.
And then they were underwater, and there was the wraith, and all of that certainty shot to hell in a few hours. As the series wears on, she becomes more and more convinced that they are never going back. That, I think, is where her sense of isolation and need for control come from. She can't let her team see that it's hopeless. And you did a really good job of picking a point in canon and showing that, showing how her faith is slowly rotting away inside. It was lovely. Thanks
