story! story! with the McKay and the Sheppard and the shiny new fandom! (dear self: breathe.)
About a lamp (125 kb, 21,873 words). Adventure, drama, thrilling escapes, cunning puzzles, math, eggs, Marines, scientists, Athosians, sex, alcohol, architecture, ghosts, bird-watching, and energy conservation. And a lamp. NC-17.
Huge thanks to
merryish and
elynross, without whom, etc. And happy, cheesy thanks to McKay and Sheppard for being so cute.
