Similar to [livejournal.com profile] ratcreature's search here, I'm looking for links where the interaction between Atlantis and the ATA users is different than the interaction between Atlantis and the non-ATA users, but in a specific way.

We just finished watching (again, for another time) "The Storm" and "The Eye" and there are a couple lines in it about how Atlantis needs ATA users to unlock its full potential. Are there any fics out there where Atlantis gets a bit... proactive... in this need? Like, the ATA users become slightly dependent on both the city itself and Ancient tech, possibly in ways they aren't even aware of until its gone? Sort of like the city needs them and they need the city. Both can survive without the other, but they reach their full potential working together and the city realizes this and wants to keep the ATA'ers for itself (letting some go offworld as long as others stay, possibly they can only be apart for X amount of time before feeling it, etc)?

Bonus points if "The Storm" and "The Eye" are catalysts for realizing this dependence and/or if it's used the explain why Sheppard, McKay and Beckett are so keen on getting back to the city after being kicked out by the Ancients.

Gen/Het/Slash is all acceptable, but please label if at all possible (just so I know what I'm getting into).

Thank you all very much in advance!

In Miriel's Memoirs universe the ATA gene humans show withdrawal symptoms when they are away too long.

(ETA: Several pairings mostly John Sheppard/Rodney McKay, Lorne/Novak, Lorne/Parrish, iirc)

Are there any others? Because I do remember reading one with a similar situation in it a while ago, a year or two back (I think)...

I am just going to leave this link here since the above link for Memoirs Universe appears to be broken.
