I am glad you enjoyed the story. I have been wanted to write for these to for a while now. :D
And I totally agree. We need more Major Davis love. <3!

As for Paul understanding about Atlantis needing Lorne, I have noticed that Paul is very much for the team and I just got the feeling that he couldn't be so selfish as to demand or ask Evan to turn his back on that. It would've been so out of character!
