Just reading the header info for this made me grin like an idiot- I *love* sentient!Atlantis stories. And Fluid Circulation is one of my favorites, but not one of the fics I thought might get picked to remix, so I doubly happy that you chose it.
The way you write Atlantis is brilliant. The way she's influenced by the emotions of her inhabitants and how she interacts with them are lovely- she cares but she's also (rightfully) careful. Even if she does recognize Elizabeth as the woman in stasis who kept her company, something that's simultaneously wonderful and heartbreaking.
Rodney is exactly how I wrote him, and certainly in need of that extra coffee, but you've fleshed out his character with layers and facets that my John never saw. And John himself- I adore the way you wrote her view of him. She recognized him because of his gene but she responds to him because of his heart is a beautiful line. The end, where she really is doing her best to reassure him and keep him safe, is perfect. Definitely not the icemaker.

I love it all. Thank you so much!
