who is the big spoon/little spoon - John watches Rodney deal with the trials and daily challenges that come from spending their every waking hour in a galaxy at war, so at night it is a relief to wrap his arms tight around Rodney, cradling him close and protecting him from the world outside. Even though Rodney puts up a good show of only giving in for johns sake, muttered words of 'I'm not a girl' falling from his lips every night John counts his breaths as Rodney's muscles relax one by one, letting out the fears and stresses that hold him together each day, letting John take the burden for once
( ... )
what is the most trivial thing they fight over - everything, it had worried John in the beginning, that they might stop fighting, be too careful of the others feelings but they had kept the same routine, Rodney still had the ability to dance on John's last nerve and was never shy about voicing how wrong John was, often and John found he had no problem pulling Rodney back down to earth, if for no other reason than a Rodney McKay unchecked was a dangerous animal, capable of the destruction of at least a couple of solar systems. Most of the time their arguments were over and done in a flash, but every now and then there would be fights of a different nature, harsh words and quick tempers where the words flew unchecked, each one sharp, direct and aimed to wound. They would be over almost as quick as they started, usually resolved with Rodney plastered to John's back whispered words, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it, I love you forcing john to turn round, smile slowly growing, soft lips meeting until they forgot what they were fighting about

who leaves their stuff around - it had started small, so small that John didn't even notice at first, a book left here, science journals on the table, power bars gathered next to the bedside until one day he turned round and realised that Rodney McKay had taken over his quarters with the same determination that he had used to take over John's heart, what was most surprising of all though was John wouldn't have it any other way. who remembers to buy the milk - there were things about Rodney that drove John mad, but his worst habit was his ability to forget to eat, sleep, breathe when he had an idea in his head. It was during these periods that John would realise just how much this annoying, arrogant unbelievably conceited man had come to mean to John. He would tolerate it for a short while but eventually he would see the circles under Rodney's eyes, hear the rumble of his hungry tummy and he would drag Rodney to their quarters, force him to eat, then sleep before waking him up with soft kisses, before fucking him into the mattress,
