fic recs...
While You Were Out by Mad Maudlin
Summary: The last thing John remembered was exploding. 1,893 words
"I'll explain it all after coffee." Rodney stopped short in the hallway. "Oh my god. I cut off diplomatic ties with our only source of coffee, didn't I?"
Finagle's Quake by Perri Smith
Characters: Rodney, Teyla, and team; gen; 18,834 words
Summary: Buried alive with a teammate on an alien world, and something outside just might blow up the planet. It's a very bad day in the Pegasus galaxy, even by Rodney's impressive standards.
Christmas in the Holly Free Zone by friendshipper
Summary: It's the first Christmas on Atlantis. Sheppard's a candy cane, Kavanagh's an elf, Heightmeyer has a cunning plan to build team spirit, Elizabeth has a headache and Rodney's just boycotting the whole thing. Humor, friendship. 11,439 words, season one
Okay, maybe 'tis not yet the proper season to rec this, but I just read it today and wanted to share the, um, Christmas joy immediately.
"C'mon, Elizabeth, cut 'em some slack. We've been living in a combat zone for months; everyone's in a ... what would the psychobabble be ... heightened state of combat readiness, or something." Sheppard snagged himself a couple of cookies, looked at the pudding for a minute and then gave it a pass. "Besides, the party's in, what, twenty-four hours? I don't think they have time to go completely insane."
Elizabeth sighed as she sat down. "I really wish you hadn't said that."
A Slip of the Tongue by agentotter
McKay/Carter; PG
Summary: The first time Rodney kissed Samantha Carter, it was entirely by accident.
Triptych by Mad Maudlin
Characters: John Sheppard, Rodney McKay; PG-13; 4,799 words
Genres: Action/Adventure, Angst, AU
(sort of a follow-up to the SG1 ep 'Moebius', IIRC)
Summary: Matter can neither be created nor destroyed
Everything's connected... made my head spin, in a good way.
Regrets, I've Had a Few by sp23
Rodney/Sam NC-17ish; ~1100 words
Summary: Sometimes, you do things in the heat of the moment you live to regret. But then sometimes, you don't.
Ships in the Night by friendshipper
513 words; gen
Summary: Sam couldn't fix a whole universe, but maybe she could help make one thing right.
Great missing scene for The Road Not Taken.

Pictures for Jeannie by friendshipper
Word Count: n/a (pictures); G; gen; Spoilers: mild ones for McKay & Mrs Miller, Return
