John Sheppard is the first human Atlantis met, and the human it knows the best. When John was young, he was puny, undersized. He sang: I WANNA BE AN AIR FORCE RANGER! I WANNA LIVE A LIFE OF DANGER! He jumped off the roof onto the tire swing, and never once broke his neck, despite his mother's assurances.
Tiny John singing the song! His bond with Atlantis! His horrible and elusive relationship with his parents!
The whole story is so lovely, but that paragraph captures the heart-WRENCHING love I have for him and all his crazy LAYERS.
