Oh, yearning!John just breaks my heart, he wants so very badly and doesn't know what to do....then he takes Rodney's hand, which is so entirely sweet. I love this!

[dogeared]

Oh, thank you! John kind of kills me getting to that moment, too . . . :">

[sageness]

I love how you paint his yearning. I love how the words at the end don't matter -- the touch and the look say everything. :)

[dogeared]

Thank you so much--I'm so glad that worked for you! Ohhhh boys. :)

John's instantly tense and hot and distracted,

I am maybe just a little bit incoherent.

Or a bit more.

*bibble*

I just love this AU. So so so much, and there are really no words for it--so quiet but so intense and uncertain and bouncing slowly through the sand to get there askjflfk!!!

And oh, while I'm incoherently thinking about it, how do you think John and Rodney meet? I was imagining Rodney heading out to Nantucket while on sabbatical (and, knowing Rodney, at a completely ridiculous time of year, like November *g*), and he means to stay there for only a few months but after he meets John, and with John being John and all, ends up staying.

[dogeared]

Yes, I think something exactly like that! I think Cate is writing when Rodney ends up staying staying, not just on the island, but in John's house, but anything up to that is wide open! eeeeee *anticipates!* :D :D :D

[aesc]

Yay! I love fangirl psychic connections!

I'm bouncing a couple of ideas for John around my head, but I want to run them by you first, since it's your AU and all :D When something comes together, I'll let you know!

*bouncehappy!*

And that's it, that's it, John can't remember why he's waited for this

That's my favorite moment. I love John like this- you write it so wonderfully.

[dogeared]

Thank you so much! Clearly poor John can only deny himself for so long . . . :D
