Review:
I've got to be honest, I very nearly skipped this fic because of its summary, which is why I won't repeat it here. But hiding behind it is a wonderful, well-written fic, that's about three men who find each other and support each other in their extraordinary life-styles and that doesn't shirk the difficulties that arise if a third partner joins an already established relationship, especially one that has his own troubled past.

In the end it was the intriguing pairing that drew me in, but what kept me reading was the interesting characterization of the two characters I did know, and especially Leverage's Eliot.

It's definitely worth a read if you're into any of the featured fandoms.

Wow. I don't know if I would have ever come across it, or ever thought to get past the summary, without this rec, but it was really lovely. Thanks!

The summary is pretty bad, which is why, I think, the fic doesn't have a lot of readers.

I'm glad you enjoyed it! That makes me very happy!

Oh, I'm intrigued! Definitely will have to check this one out!

Quick tag fix: looks like this needs both "pairing: slash" and "pairing: threesome" tags.

To be honest I've seen like mabe three episodes of Stargate Atlantis, and while I've seen a lot of the original Stargate, I've only caught the first five or so seasons and I couldn't tell you much any of the people except the main Team.

So, I went into this with knowing pretty much only Eliot and knowing a lot about John Sheppard from fanfic and it was still an enjoyable read.

I'm glad you enjoyed it. I pounce on pretty much all threesome fic as well. I'm glad I could help you out!
