Disclaimer: SGA doesn't belong to me. But you already knew that.
Author Notes:: torakowalski said she'd really like to see a realistic Virgin!John fic, and I got to thinking about it and couldn't stop. I tried my very best. This is for her.

On my webpage because it was too big for one post. Oops.

Lost in Waiting

Feedback makes me happy - multiple times. *G*

ETA: A huge thank you to everyone for reading and commenting. This is the most response I've ever had on a fic, and it's overwhelming in the best possible way. I usually respond to all comments, but I don't think I'll be able to this time, although I'll try to get to as many as possible. Thank you so much. ~Lacey

This is so, so sad and so so good. I don't really have any constructive criticism (I really should be revising for my Finals) but it was very moving and I liked the way that Rodney handled it all as well, and also that he suggested Heightmeyer because sometimes people miss that out when they shouldn't. You wrote it well and subtly, good job.
