Folks you ready to make some hugs? Doesn't matter who, but it's IMPORTANT. Could be Rodney hugging Teyla or Danno hugging Chin. Tony hugging Bruce because man, it's not easy being huge and green. <3 ( Read more... )

Trying to Find a Balance 1/2 jendavis May 7 2012, 07:24:50 UTC

Premeditation isn't really John's strong suit, but he's trying, because it's been an insane freaking week. He's barely left the conference room all week, and yeah, for the most part, his head's where it needs to be. Here, on Atlantis, on Earth. At the same time. He's not sure why it's so hard to get the equation to balance in his head. It's home but it's not, it's two homes canceling each other out.

At least in here, with the one window pointing out towards the ocean- the Pacific- it's possible to imagine that nothing's really changed. It's been three days, and it's not even real yet. Maybe it would help if he could get out of this damned meeting. It's the same one they've been having for hours, for days, and though his presence is a foregone conclusion, he's checked his attention at the conference room door ( ... )

He hasn't seen Ronon since the first time he'd snuck out of the infirmary, and though Banks assures him- her eyes are a little wide, she seems worried that John's question's about to become an order that he hasn't even begun to string together- that she'd returned him to his assigned bed, she hasn't seen him since. Either have the doctors, but they're just a skeleton crew, now, and most of them haven't been here for more than two days. The worst of the expedition's injuries are being handled on the mainland- no, at the Oakland Naval Hospital, and the med staff had followed them en masse.

Ronon's newly assigned doctor seems nervous that he'd disappeared without being discharged, and John spends more time calming him down- it's not like the guy's attuned to their habits, after all- than getting any sort of information. He promises to send Ronon down the moment he finds him, and moves on.

"Everyone's okay," McKay'd assured him during the coffee break this morning that seems like it had happened years ago. "Jennifer wanted me to ( ... )

All premeditation aside, all fifty hours of it, and all John's thinking right now is that taking a shower before coming up here had been a waste, even if the wind is drying the sweat off of him. It feels like being sandblasted.

He gives it a minute, watches Ronon's back, his side, looking for evidence of bandages or worse as he steps up to the railing next to him. He's not going to bother reminding him that he hadn't actually been discharged from the infirmary, but he can't ignore it completely. "How're you holding up?"

Ronon nods down at his hands. It feels like he's making a joke, and maybe he is. "Fine. Just."

The first time he'd seen the mainland- San Francisco- from here, he'd been grinning wide, happy, but he's had three days, now, to get over the shock of still breathing, of being anywhere"Three months," John says. "Maybe four, and we're heading back out ( ... )

Yay! Glad you liked. I liked writing it MORE THAN I LIKED SLEEPING WHEN I HAVE TO BE UP IN FOUR HOURS.

Totally worth it, though. Though I am going to exercise *some* restraint, and put off reading the rest of the stories until tomorrow evening. Stupid RL...stupid work...stupid sleepy me... :)

sleep tight, buttercup! *hugs*

Aww. Together, they'll keep their balance.

Hee! :)

Aww ... so much to love in this. Poor Teyla, being away from Torren. And Ronon, needing a hug as much as John does. Totally worth losing sleep over. Or getting up and the crack of dawn and finding this waiting for me. :-)

Glad you liked!

Ronon's joke! Love it! And John sounds as if he's reassuring himself right along with everyone else. Lovely!

STOIC + STOIC = THESE TWO.

I excelled in math. Glad you liked!

Thank you! Glad you liked. :)

Re: Trying to Find a Balance 1/2 esteefee May 7 2012, 07:32:43 UTC

eee, I don't mind character limit because it lets me stop to say \o/ HUG #1 with Teyla, who needs it, and John <3 who's losing his mind.
