Review:
Rodney accidentally activates an Ancient device that makes him forget anything that he finds stressful. For some reason that makes him forget John.

Okay, I'll admit that part of the reason why I'm reccing this is because I really don't like canon!John Sheppard and this story explains why. Which isn't to say that this is a John-bashing fic; more Crys presents all of the negative stuff (cock-blocking, pressuring Rodney in stressful situations, the Lemon) as part of John and Rodney's dynamic and not necessarily in a bad way. What I like most about it, however, is that John has to confront this behavior and think to himself whether it's appropriate and/or acceptable between friends. As a bonus, you have John introspection, which is always awesome; amnesia!Rodney, who kicks all kinds of ass; Teyla and Ronon, who always kick ass; and some nifty-cool pseudo-science weapons against the wraith. A solid, well-written amnesia!fic.
