mini_nanowrimo. I've done random exercises for the last two days. Nothing really to write home about. This marks my return to SGA. Since I'm focusing on Radek's introduction in my Nano, this is fairly relevant. This is Radek's thoughts after the events of "Trinity".
I should have let McKay blow himself up. I would have been well rid of him. I might even get my own research done, instead of always helping him. The labs would have been blissfully quiet.
But I couldn't. Whatever I might think of McKay, he didn't deserve to die. He can be difficult, he can be frustrating, but he is still needed on Atlantis. I am a good scientist, but I am not him. Nor would I want to be.
Perhaps I shouldn't have been so angry with him. Anyone could have decided that the data was wrong. Even I agreed with his initial assessment. But most men, when shown proof otherwise, will generally admit they might be wrong. McKay will admit to that when Atlantis flies! His stubbornness damn near them both killed.
Such hubris to think he could perfect what the Ancients discarded.
But that is McKay to a fault. If he believes he can do a thing, he will find a way. His confidence gives him strength, but it can also cripple him. He will learn from his experiences with Project Arcturus. I'm just not sure what yet.
