John's Concussion Induced Dream and What Went Wrong

[cat_77]

Per threnodyjones's request, I was supposed to add this to my fic round up. It was originally posted here. I'm also supposed to continue it, but am currently brain dead from my accounts here at work. Anyone want to jump in?

Reposting it here for archiving purposes because you all know I'll forget where I put it otherwise:

Oooh, oooh!

Everybody stopped listening to him complaining about the spiderwebs in his room when they first arrived, which led to him being worried about being bitten by a spider in the middle of the night. Because he'd started hanging out with McKay, his unconscious naturally transferred McKay's allergy paranoia to him, creating the Iratus bug biting him on the neck and sucking out his life slowly enough that he could be helped (because he wouldn't want to *actually* die).

His continued association with Rodney led to meeting Radek, which ultimately led to his unconscious turning John into a bug because Radek is Czech and so was Kafka (kinda).

How about:
He's always searching for the perfect "someone" that, you know, being perfect and all, would make everyone happy including his extremely picky parents. What with being gay and fearing they won't accept that, he dreams up the perfect woman who's all mystical (because he doesn't know the first thing about real women) and defensive of her people (because blowing shit up is cool) and can't stay with him (because that way he doesn't actually have to be around a girl with girl germs all the time) and is secretly all glowy and not really human because that way he can swear he had sex with her but respond to people that say, er, no, it doesn't work that way, that it's different with glowy squid people.

Being desperate, his mind harkens back to his halcyon days of youth, the simple days of which he longs to return to. However, because he never settled things with his father, and his mother is a distant memory, he gets caught up in a 'lost boys' scenario. Even his unconscious can't get over the fact that he's rapidly nearing 40, however, and in the resulting dichotomous schism the lost boys of his youth start trying to kill him.

As it becomes further evident that he will never be able to go back to the days when the only girls he had to interact with were five years old and militant, the wraith are introduced (because growing old is that much more inevitable).

I can't write these nearly as well as you can...

Let go of that grasp of logic you have and stick to reasoning, no matter how cracked out - it makes it easier. *g*
