The Jonas story is Huma and it's on AO3 if you're interested.
Maybe I liked SGU because my tastes in general skew exceptionally male. I was as prepared to hate it as much as anyone, especially with some of the plotlines they floated beforehand. But it was the Stargate that most closely fit the one I wrote -- a real sense of a military command structure (John Sheppard is military by pretext, not by anything he says or does or how anyone treats him or how he treats others), a real battle between the interests of exploration and survival and fights over power and control, a dark humor instead of silly yukks, actual prices paid for mistakes and hubris and main characters hurt and bled... It was everything I had wished SGA to be. I know it polarized everyone, but some of those episodes and arcs were brilliant.
