There will be at least one more batch of five things coming in the non-specific near future.

Five Times Rodney McKay Thought He Was Losing It
1) Siberia.
2) Not during the siege of Atlantis, no matter what he said or how strung out he was on adrenaline and amphetamines and one catastrophe after another. No, it was their first forty-eight hours back on Earth, which passed in an overwhelming technicolor blur. He remembers going into a supermarket and standing in front of the bright shelves of potato chips, paralyzed for a full twenty minutes.
3) Stuck at the bottom of the ocean talking to an imaginary Sam Carter. Actually, he feels like he’s got a few screws loose every time he talks to Sam in the flesh, as well.
4) From the second the Alterans appeared in their broken (albeit spectacular) spaceship, until the second he heard the Asurans kicked their asses. Come to think of it, Chaya drove him crazy too. So did those hippies from the time dilation field, even though he barely met them-but just listening to Sheppard talk about them? Rodney figures that the Ancients are kind of like Sam Carter in this respect, only they’re assholes and she’s not.
5) One evening, completely out of the blue, Sheppard leaned in and placed an achingly chaste kiss on Rodney’s lips. Rodney had to wait forty seconds for his brain to come back online and replay the moment from eight different angles before he could figure out what just happened. By then Sheppard had started to retreat, but it was startlingly easy for Rodney to stop him and kiss him back.

Five Things That Leroy Jethro Gibbs Really Is Afraid Of
1) His strictly hypothetical ex-wife number four.
2) That DiNozzo will grow up and stop being so damn good at his job.
3) He’s not scared per se, but he doesn’t like the possibility that someone other than Ducky could do his autopsy. If he’s killed, he wants people he can trust on the case.
4) He’s lost people, both in and out of combat, and each one makes the hollow place in his chest grow sharper. Any member of his team could die on any day, and it scares the shit out of him.
5) Squirrels. Don’t ask.

Five Things That Abby Sciuto Wants but Can’t Have
1) Tony and Tim. Together. Seriously, she probably could have a threesome with them, but they can both be surprisingly insecure. If they did have sex, it might backfire and make them impossible to work with. On the other hand, it would be really hot.
2) She would never admit it, but every once in a while she kinda wonders what she’d look like with a tan.
3) A panther, but it’s illegal to keep one as a pet.
4) A time machine. Not because she wants to go back and change anything-even if she could get around the whole space-time paradox thing-but because there are a lot of people she’d like to meet, like Edgar Allen Poe and Mata Hari and Nikolai Tesla.
5) Kate back.
