Title: Things We Trade For Freedom

Disclaimer: The words are mine; the worlds are not.
Summary:
When Ronon agreed to go with the Earthers after the Ancients claimed Atlantis, he'd expected to end up fighting Ori soldiers, not taking a tour of Sheppard's country-- or stumbling into a first contact situation as strange as anything in Pegasus. Who is this woman who calls herself Faith? 26,000 words.
Warnings: Canon-typical violence, language, sexuality, and appearance of a misogynistic villain.
Notes: A B:tVS/Stargate Atlantis fic, starting from a slightly AU version of SGA 3.10 "The Return, Part I" and crossing over to an equally AU B:tVS 7.10/7.11 "Bring on the Night" and "Showtime" with elements of 7.18 "Dirty Girls". Some dialogue borrowed from relevant episodes. A few Latin words also included, as a stand-in for presumably Ancient-descended Satedan, plus several pop culture references.
