I really enjoyed this. I loved the back-and-forth between TDO and current day showing John's trust in his team for help and McKay's surehanded medic skills. They've both grown a lot in four years.
“And I'm not going jogging.”
“You are if you want to go in the field on my team.”
McKay stared at Sheppard, and Sheppard looked back. There wasn't a question in his eyes, just an answer, openly encouraging: 'yes, yes, yes', like he could project it onto McKay's lips.
“Okay.”
LOVED that part - it allows John to ask Rodney back on the team without actually asking and allows Rodney to save face. Perfect.
