there are times when Rodney thinks that John might be more like Sheppard than they all originally deducted. It isn’t just that he never mentions his parents, never asks why he’s on Atlantis rather than Earth, why he never questions the utterly terrifying faith he has in Rodney, it’s more in the little things.
Oh John. *sobs*
almost startled when Lorne just rolls his eyes and lets the comment roll of his back like...like Sheppard would. Somehow that makes him resent the Major a little more.
Oh Rodney. *hugs Rodney hard*
Also. Lorne is kinda awesome.
“So, what, you’re taking him away from me?”
[snip]
Rodney gets what she’s saying, understands that it’ll be worse on John if he goes and dies on the kid, but it still feels like he’s being punished.
“Fine,” he snaps. “I’ll take him every second weekend and two weeks every holiday.”
[snip]
And, yes, he does know she’s right. But at that moment, it doesn’t make him hate her any less.
God, I'm so with Rodney here.
he keeps tally on a small hand held in his top drawer and is constantly alarmed by how few scratches there are in that particular column
HEEEEE! *g*
That John’s clasping his hands in front of him and swaying gently from side to side with a somewhat angelic look on his face doesn’t seem to be putting the man at ease, and Rodney wonders if the time they spent rehearsing said look was all in vain.
*dies laughing*
And then John mumbles, “Don’t send me ‘way ‘gain, Wodney.”
To hell with handing the boy over to Teyla; John’s not leaving his sight for at least the next three days.
Oh god, break me into itty bitty little pieces why don't you?!!
“Well, John is also not allowed to start food fights in the mess, change passwords on lab’s computers, turn on Ancient machines, run naked through hallway, or take tantrum in the ‘gate room, but this does not make a difference.”
*giggles*
“John, stop this.” His voice is rough and slightly hollow, because part of him doesn’t want the wonder around him to go away.
*sobs*
Screw the IOA, screw the SGC and screw the entire damn galaxy, because Rodney will be damned before he hands over the only person in the whole universe who’s ever cared about him that wasn’t obliged to. He’s not giving up on Sheppard yet and he’s not letting the boy out of his sight until he’s whole again. Possibly not ever.
“No. If you send him away... If you send him away, you lose me, too. Because I won’t be coming back either.”
Oh god. *flailing* Lots and lots of *flailing* This is the Rodney I was waiting for! Also. Yes. A million times yes.
if it wasn’t for the strange tension between Elizabeth and Major Lorne
And now I want to know what Lorne did...
“Told him he was stuck with you. You’ll have to tough it out now, McKay, I’ve never lied to my CO and I’m not about to start now.”
Oh god, I love Lorne unconditionally now. For both the telling John he was stuck with Rodney and the "I've never lied to my CO bit". Love unconditionally, I tell you! *g*
SG1 - I really hope that SG1 are really only coming to look at the database, because if there is ulterior motive, I will be pissed off at Elizabeth (for orchestrating), SG1 (for actually doing it) and you (for making SG1 the bad guys, when they're really, really not). However, I have complete faith in you, so I know that SG1 really are only coming to look at the database.
