A/N: This ‘verse is not my creation. It originated in the SGA fandom with a writer called Xanthe, though I'm told this story more closely resembles the helenish version. It has since traveled through a few other writers and fandoms. I’m just doing my part to bring it to ours; I hope you like it and are inspired to write in it.
TY: I’m giving this its own line because there are several. First of all, a massive thank you to my beta, Kelly, because my god is this thing huge. I also owe thanks to her, Abigail, Geena, and sailorptah for offering feedback, suggestions, and for letting me ramble at them incessantly about this fic and universe. I did a lot of that, I know, and I’m sorry. I hope it was worth it.

A/N: I'm a bit of a POV whore. I love using different people's (and sometimes animals') perspectives to tell a story; hence this fic's existence. (Let’s pretend in this universe that Bobby never left, plz? I like him too much for that.) Oh, also: this one references a couple things in Four Times Jon Needed To Punish Stephen (And One Time He Rewarded Him), so it might be beneficial to read that one as well. Thank you for the beta, Kelly.
