I did! My best friend finally got me to watch the series, and I liked it far more than I expected to - so naturally I had to start writing fic. =D

I think that's absolutely true about John - he'll always prefer to save lives, wherever possible... but he's also got a soldier's mindset about things, and there's this part of him that's willing to make the decision to kill one person in order to preserve more lives. I'm so glad that's come across clearly, and that the fic worked for you.

I'll hopefully be posting more soon (at least another ficlet or two), so maybe I'll see you around. As always, thank you very much for the comment! =D
