Stargate SG-1/Atlantis ; Rodney/Sam ; Our Favo(u)rite Explorers - A Fanmix
[Introduction]
Air - The Word 'Hurricane'
They swirl in and around one another, creating the beginnings of the storm.
Sam's POV - 48 Hours
[She can tell he wants her. She doesn't care (or maybe too afraid to care) about him]
Jennifer Paige - Crush
It's just a little crush
Not like I faint every time we touch
It's just some little thing
Not like everything I do depends on you
Rodney's POV - Redemption pt 1&2
[He can't be let down that easy, though. He's a stubborn bastard (and more than a little bit arrogant)]
Tegan and Sara - This is Everything
Climbed up on the rainbow
Just to see if I'd fall off
I'm a frosted lemon coward
And I don’t know how
No, I don't know how to hold you
Without shaking
Rodney's POV - Antarctica
[It's cold and it's frozen. It wouldn't be completely out of the question if he went mad]
The Weakerthans - Our Retired Explorer (Dines with Michel Foucault in Paris, 1961)
Oh, I could show you the way shadows colonize snow
Ice breaking up on the bay off the Lassiter coast
Light failing over the pole as every longitude leads
up to your frost bitten feet oh, you're very sweet
Rodney's POV - Rising
[He's looking for a face he knows won't be there]
Carbon Leaf - Changeless
Call my friends to share some wine
To share some laughs, and last goodbyes
[And like that, he's gone]
Sarah McLachlan - Last Dance
[Instrumental]
Sam's POV - Post-Rising
[If she lets herself think about it, she thinks that maybe she could have popped in for one last goodbye]
Cat Power - I Found a Reason
What comes is better than what came before
Sam's POV - The Siege pt 3/The Intruder
[It seems like he's only on Earth for a short period of time before he's gone again, but it's enough to convince her that once he's back, she'll take the chance. After all, he's one of the few who she has kissed and hasn't yet died]
Paris Hilton - Stars Are Blind
Those other guys all wanna take me for a ride
But when I walk their talk is suicide
[...]
Even though the gods are crazy
Even though the stars are blind
Both POVs
[It's not going to be easy, but with his arrogance and her (according to him, anyway) unwillingness to budge from theoretical physics, this long-distance relationship just might work]
Gwen Stefani - Early Winter
You said the map of the world is on you
The moon gravitates around you
The seasons escape you
Rodney's POV - McKay and Mrs Miller
[And hey, when was the last time she had a relationship with someone who she could hold a conversation with someone without holding her tongue?]
Belle and Sebastian - Step Into my Office, Baby
We need to talk
Step into my office, baby
I want to give you the job
A chance of overtime
Say, my place at nine?
Sam's POV - McKay and Mrs Miller
[And if he can fantastise her in the middle of a sinking puddlejumper, he has to be worth it]
Shakira - Whenever, Wherever
Whenever, wherever
We're meant to be together
I'll be there and you'll be near
Both POVs
[Despite the distance between the two of them, wherever the other is, whether it be the Milky Way or Pegasus, it's home]
Chantal Kreviazuk - Feels Like Home
It feels like home to me
It feels like home to me
It feels like I'm all the way back where I come from
It feels like home to me
It feels like home to me
It feels like I'm all the way back where I belong
