But even larger than that, it's her attachment to her people, and the fact that she actually does have a love interest that she's been hiding from everybody. We haven't met him yet—I haven't met him yet. I hope I'm part of the casting process.
That means her 'love interest' isn't Sheppard? Thank. God. This bit has given me some relief.
In the episode 'Sunday' when Ronon asked Shep if there was anyone on Atlantis that he liked *nudge nudge, wink wink*, and after John tossed him a confused look and Ronon blurted, "What about Teyla?" I nearly choked as I shouted "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!"
Honestly, that entire conversation couldn't have been any more out of left field. I saw more unrequited love/sexual tension between Shep and Weir than I EVER saw between Shep and Teyla. (I know, there are plenty of Sheyla shippers out there, but I honestly don't understand why)
Besides, it seems that anyone Shep gets close to in any way, dies; Holland, Beckett, Ford, and this season, Weir. So that would be a death sentence for Teyla, would it not?
I've long held out hopes that Teyla and Ronon had a specialness. But, oh well, *sigh* just my shipper heart being crashed against the rocks as canon has now ceased to exist the episode before 'Sunday'.
In respects to fic, I'm a Shep/Weir shipper, but in the show itself, I never want Shep paired with anyone... unless they bring Weir back. *cries*
