You know, I am quite the veteran of (and fan of) many universes and time travel fiction. And, having read loriel_eris's summary of Moebius, I still do not get what that episode was supposed to do, be about, all that. So I'd love to hear what you think the creators' premise was and what they were trying to do, because, wow, I just totally failed my geek cred roll with that. Or maybe they did. One or the other.

But Moebius has given us such wonderful stories I'm grateful to it all the same. (It's tough, being a fan of mostly fan fiction, because sometimes the episodes the primary fans really hate are the ones that give rise to the best fan fiction.) And I agree with you, obviously, that Triptych is one, and is basically made of awesome.

And I'm happy to hear that it works for, you know, someone with actual serious canon SG1 knowledge as well as it worked for me.

Thank you!
