Hehe. I would apologise but I like it far too much to be honest and any chance of more Kavanagh/Simpson friendship or even just scenes with them is nice. I think Simpson might have trouble with the idea at first if it personally effected her (can't see her really being bothered by Athosians own traditions as they related to the Athosians), like most Earthlings would at the very least, but I doubt she'd be completely opposed if it really mattered in some way to her own happiness. It'd be an interesting AU of an AU to have added in and could have all sorts of extra juicy angles on how the community would react to not just an Athosian/Earthling marriage but a polyagamus (is that the correct word?) one that involved another Atlantis expedition member, who arguably might be more notable than Kavanagh.
Somehow I can see those who dislike him to be happy if they knew about him being married to Teyla. Jealous she chose him yes, but happy that he's sort of more out of the way in some small way, less of their problem with his links to the Athosians - but adding in any other Earthling could cause more serious rumblings and worry over what the Athosians intentions are. I'm not sure if Bates would like it in regard to security and it might trouble Weir for the fact that presumably expedition members - particularly ones working together regularly - marrying causes issues too. But it could be really interesting.
