When he first met Carson, he sat in a chair that supposedly had just blasted a weapon that targeted his chopper. He liked him straight away.

When he first met Elizabeth she was annoyed and shocked so didn't speak to him except to ask him if he wanted to go on a one-way expedition. He said he'd think about it.

When he first saw Tayla he was reminded of the tales of the amazons those great warrior women from mythology. She did not prove him wrong

When he first met McKay he though he was a pompous, stuck up, annoying scientist not agreeing with General O'Neill's 'I don't like scientists'. He did prove him wrong

When he first met Ford, he thought he was a bit of a mama's boy but good friend material. Well he was both of those, but he also later became a danger to himself and Atlantis. He missed him – and the turkey sandwiches he used to bring him.

When he first met Ronon, he was reminded of a stray, but when he heard his story, he considered him to be one of the greatest warriors he'd ever met.

He thinks back to the time they made videos of themselves to their 'loved ones' just before the Wraith attack. He thinks how he had said there was no one back on earth that would miss him. That had been the truth. He didn't have a family. Well not on earth anyway.

A/N: Just a very quick fic about the people that have been important to John since he came to Atlantis
