sga fic: His Dinner with Jeannie

[xparrot]

gnine had the original idea around which this story is built. I've read several "Miller's Crossing" tags with a similar premise, but none of them were quite what we wanted. Our interpretation of Jeannie is slightly different from others I've seen; we're maybe a bit more sympathetic to her than some, and this story reflects that take.

SGA: His Dinner with Jeannie {5,823 words}
PG, gen angst; "Miller's Crossing" tag, set between "This Mortal Coil" and "Be All My Sins Remember'd"
A little while after "Miller's Crossing," John has a conversation with Jeannie about what transpired.

I really enjoyed this - Jeannie searching for the truth and not afraid to ask John, the comparison between her childhood memories and what she sees now in Mer, John seeing the similarities between the two as well as the differences.

My favorite part was John explaining what happened to Wallace and Jeannie's reaction - wonderful tension in the scene and very in character for both. Well done.

Thank you! I'm especially glad the scene concerning Wallace worked, as the whole fic was really centered around that (I wasn't expecting to take so many words to get there, but McKays do like to talk...)
