And, as I usually do, I say, what happens next is up to you. Maybe Rodney never makes it off the rock, maybe he dies along the way, maybe the SGC stops him, maybe he finds everyone who escaped, maybe his team is dead, maybe John's out there looking for him. Maybe he really does tear down the Tau'to empire. There's a universe where anything you, I, and anyone can think of is how it ends, because fic never really ends.
