popkin16A friend of mine asked me to locate a fic for her and in the process of googling, I stumbled on some old sgastoryfinder searches for a fic called All Change. It wasn't up for long after completion, and the author was encouraging people to save a copy. And you know me: new (to me), long McShep fic? I NEED IT.
I finally got in contact with someone who linked me to a google doc folder of the fic - with every chapter in a separate .doc file. And they aren't numbered (except for the first three), so I had three goals:
1). Figure out what order it went in
2). Combine it all into one file.
3). Give it a summary.
And I have (after 3 days of non-stop work)! I even mocked up an ao3 format for the fic, lol.
So:
All Change by ralphspudlanyon
191k words. John Sheppard/Rodney McKay || Elizabeth Weir/Teyla Emmagen || Carson Beckett/Laura Cadman || Carson Beckett/Ronon Dex
If you want a copy, send me your email and I'll pass the file along.

Elizabeth resigns, opening the door for a change in leadership that bodes ill for Atlantis. Around the same time, AR-1 meets with an advanced, telepathic civilization that seems to charm any who come in contact with them. One man in particular takes an interest in Rodney, and John’s not at all certain of the intentions behind this civilization’s generosity.
If you want a copy, send me your email and I'll pass the file along.

I'll let you know if there are any glitches like that but I don't expect them!
I'm looking forward to it but I have a huge to-be-read list so am not sure when it will reach the top!
Yes - there's a huge difference between sharing, between friends, and publishing. Thanks again!

At least you have something to look forward to :D Get to it whenever you can - though I WOULD like to know what you think~
