Oh, oh ow. This needs a sequel. It does, because ow, that Sheppard is so ingrained to beliefs that John doesn't know enough to value --

Ow ow ow.

So damned good.

Wow - that really hurt. And it was so good. Wonderfully written.

Ouch! Oh, poor Rodney - heck, poor both of them, wanting something they can't have, and in Sheppard's case, can't even let themselves want. Reminds me of that exchange in Men In Black (font of all wisdom, right?): "You know what they say. It's better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all." "Try it." Very well done.

Oh poor guys! I'd loved to read how they deal with the fallout of this.
