[SGA] 1.12: The Defiant One

Watched with the @stargatevp gang.

Dammit Rodney don’t let go of the controls

Oooh, a sattellite… It’s so shiny. Let’s steal it.

No! Don’t go towards the sound! It sounds wraith-like.

Jfc, guys no.

*sighs* why do these boys always go towards the danger??

Like, was the a pre-req for going to atlantis nobody bothered to mention?

“we’ll be fine” famous last words.

“remember where we parked” ohmygod, I will never be able to take mom seriously again ever.

Rodney needs better self preservation instincts, thats for sure.

I mean, we know that John’s more than a wee bit crazy…

“Let’s go take a look” John, no.

Call it paranoia, call it premonition, call it: “Liz knows how dumb those boys are”

*sighs* This whole ep, for me, is pretty much “John, no.”

Like, sg1. I stg, ever ep is pretty much “Daniel, no, do not” and Daniel dpong what he shouldnt.

Spider webs… Hmm… wonder if spiders are secretly aliens who can travel via the vaccum of the void?

*sighs* Rodney, when will you learn, plan for the worst.

“Major are you trying to scare me to death?” Foreshadowing. That was foreshadowing, right there.

This is what happens when you leave half your squad at home, and just take two nerds plus John to fly the jumper

pretty sure I can make a drinking game out of every time somebody touched something they shouldn’t have…

@stargate-stargate: “You would not survive" like, try me.

“You’re going to kill me anyway.” At least the kid isn’t stupid.

ohmygod, why do people always cloak puddlejumpers in the desert like it’s a good plan

SAND. SAND EVERYWHERE

John sayng he can be pretty fast is hilarious.

Rodney has a brain, but damn, he’s gonna murder John later.

I cant be the only one who thinks Rodney is planning to murder John in his sleep… right?

“What are you Captain Kirk?”

“You know they eventually die, right?”

Jfc I love him.

“That’s my ship you’re messing with, I’d like it back.”

I also want to know where he got his sunglasses. They’re awesome.

Uh oh. It’s playing dead.

John, no.

Wraith dude looks both tired and grumpy.

Rodney playing nursemaid is adorable and wonderful bc it shows his human side

“Round 1 was a draw.”

Jeez, I wonder how much sand wound up in his pants after rolling down that hill.

Wait. That came out wrong.

John, no. Bad idea.

omg you just gave away your position and wasted a perfectly decent grenade.

What is wrong with you, why would you waste a perfectly good grenade?

they make a lovely boom

@trisarathops: “could have been in mensa, eh?“ (im now dead of laughter)

like, i’m pretty sure his survival instincts are damaged. He’s pretty, and math-smart, but like… idk, his internal danger compass is broken?

Oh he had to say that bit about the Wraith hacking the Jumper.

I stg John jinxed himself

Jfc, that’s gonna hurt. John, no;

What did you think he was doing a minute ago? Poking his watch?

This is a prime example of “I did not think this through!

oh ffs stay down already

Use his hands?? Bro, no, i dont think thats how the tech works

John, we do not bring knives to a wraith fight. We bring guns!

“Now what?” “Reload!”

Rodney looks so badass rn.

“McKay?” “Still here!” Yes, yes you are. :D

Um, John, is the field still up? don’t walk into it. again.

you’re stuck with me | a mcshep fix-it reclist

Aspects of Divinity (the world is my oyster) by kariye | 13k, e, pre-canon

The summer John is eighteen, he drives an ice cream truck. He hasn’t yet learned there are things he can’t do just because he wants to badly enough. Or, a fic about seeing the map of the world.

Water Your Dreams by amireal & Ladycat | 13k, e, pre-canon

"It didn't occur to me until later that you actually meant a boat."

↓ the rest in chronological order under the cut ↓

First Aid by 2ndA | 2k, NR, 1x01

They were a multi-national, intergalactic military/civilian enterprise on an ice field at the bottom of the world. And they had a piano.

Aftermath by LtLJ | 1k, e, 1x11

A Plot What Plot? tag at the end of The Storm-The Eye episodes.

Aftershocks by astolat | 2k, e, 1x11

The calm after the storm, or the lack thereof. Post-ep for The Storm/The Eye.

That's MY cold by Saxifactumterritum | 3k, g, 1x11

I wrote a fic. Mcshep, post The Eye/The Storm (Stargate Atlantis series one. John's got a cold, Rodney's annoyed, then there's snuggling

Reckoning by tacit | 5k, t, 1x12

Written December 2007 for the SGA H/C secret santa. Everybetty requested gen Shepwhump featuring Beckett, that didn't skip over the medical details. This is what came out.

Nb: At the end of The Defiant One, McKay nods to Sheppard's gun shot wound and asks if Sheppard's okay. Sheppards replies, "Other than this and a few cracked ribs," which seemed eye-rollingly over-stoic, to me. I've taken a bit of poetic license with the severity of Sheppard's injuries.

The 10,000 Year Old Second Chance by squidgie | <1k, g, 1x15

Set just after S01E15, "Before I sleep," John and Rodney have dinner in the Mess after "Ancient" Elizabeth dies - and start to ask, "What if?"

bye bye buss by lovelycrinkle | <1k, e, 1x20

Consequences are not for the dead but the living left behind, so he should probably feel sorry for what he's about to do.

(Nancy always called him selfish. Maybe it's about time he finally proves her right.)

Chess by esteefee | 7k, e, 2x01

We're all pieces on the board, some more valuable than others. Rodney wants to negotiate.

A Little Bit Crazy by thegrrrl2002 | 7k, e, 2x02

Back on Earth after the events of Siege III, and John's feeling a little...unsettled. (Contains Siege spoilers)

Things To Do In Denver When You're Dead by Speranza | 12k, e, 2x02

"Any plans for shore leave?" Rodney asks, and this time Sheppard doesn't even look at him.

A Day Without Me by Brumeier | 1k, t, 2x12

It was a long six months stuck in the time dilation field for John, and he's been missing Rodney's touch.

Wishes on a Wheel by waterfallliam | 3k, t, 2x12

The sun is gentle, faintly wrong against his skin. The wind whispers against his arms and neck that he’s alive and that counts for something, he’s never wholly alone, he still has himself—but it’s nothing like the sea breeze that feels like home.

Zen and the Art of Jumper Maintenance by Indybaggins | 39k, m, 2x12

The one where Rodney gets sucked in and John… follows. Featuring a quirky John, Rodney in orange robes, crazy Ancient-worship, sheep milking and jumpers that aren't broken but need to be fixed anyway.

MVP by Speranza | 11k, e, s2

He has a highly regressive personality and may be impulsive, engaging in acts of compulsive and pleasurable wish-fulfillment. He is secretly a moralist, though he will act to save others even as he judges them. However, his is a personality always on the verge of disintegration: he does not have a strongly drawn line between "self" and "other" and is likely to engage in acts of reckless self-disregard. Very probably homosexual.

Energy Conservation by miasnape | <1k, g, 3x08

"I just wanted to, you know, talk to you about something." Rodney quickly saved his work and turned to face Sheppard. "Oh, God. Really?"

Casual Easy Thing by lamardeuse | 3k, m, 3x08

John contemplates the possibilities.

No Saviours by Saxifactumterritum | 2k, g, 3x09

after phantoms John and Rodney are both a bit out of sorts.

Rodney finds John on one of the walkways, high above the city…

Inviting Catastrophe by esteefee | 3k, e, 3x10

Their first week back on Earth, Rodney could hardly bear the sound of the generator at Area 51, the constant hum that wasn't Atlantis, that wasn't the ocean or her power conduits singing the sweet music of systems in harmony.

Weapons of Some Distraction by shrift | 5k, e, 3x10

"At least it wasn't a Russian mail order bride." Set during those mostly-missing six weeks on Earth in episode 3x10 - The Return, Part 1.

Accident Prone by LadyRa | 7k, t, 3x10

Something goes wrong during one of John's missions with his new Stargate team.

until she shines by verity | 20k, e, s3

John felt like Atlantis was home from the moment he stepped through the Gate. He just didn't expect that the city would feel the same way.

In which Ancients come and go, Rodney reinvents Babelfish, Ronon resumes his career in library science, and Teyla is awesome.

Payback by lamardeuse | 2k, e, 3x18

John's never done it before.

woke up hurting by respoftw | <1k, g, 4x04

Nightmares were a part of John's life

Tomorrow and Tonight by ami_ven | <1k, g, 4x04

“We should really get some sleep, too.”

Lessons in Waking Up by dogeared & Siria | 1k, e, 4x04

Keller crashes first, hiding a yawn behind one hand while she makes her excuses about early morning clinics and paperwork and half-jokes about not even being able to read her own handwriting. Sam's not far behind her; then Teyla, trailing Ronon in her wake, looking for peace through meditation, though John knows the only thing she's likely to find is irritation with Ronon's snoring.

Not in a Dream, Much Less in the Real World by unadrift | 3k, e, 4x04

"Do you even know," crytal-entity-Sheppard asks in a low voice, "why John puts up with you, with your abrasive personality, your enormous ego, your wannabe omniscience, your pathetic whining and complaining, every fucking day of his miserable life?"

In Your Dreams by lamardeuse | 5k, e, 4x04

Holy shit, was this his subconscious?

Traveler's Tag by Ladycat | 1k, g, 4x05

John waits for it. He waits through the debriefing, with Carter's knowing eyes and her humiliatingly sympathetic smiles. He waits through dinner, where his team needles him just to make sure he's back and everything's okay.

Love on the Cover of a Magazine by pinkoptics | <1k, g, 4x06

John wakes up at the end of Tabula Rasa.

TEYLA - “Yes. If the distribution of the cure had been delayed any longer, many more people would have died.”

SHEPPARD (worried) - “What do you mean?”

SHEPPARD (looking around) - “Where's McKay?”

We pick up from there. It gets mcsheppy and “WAIT OKAY THIS IS SO CUTE” to quote a friend.

Foretold by thegrrrl2002 | 8k, e, 4x08

What if John had taken the Seer's hand? What would he have seen?

If I Could Walk on Water by apple-pi | 1k, e, 4x09

Tag for SGA 4x09, Miller's Crossing

Cornflake Girl by kariye | 16k, e, s4

In which many Rodney clichés rear their obsessive-compulsive heads. And wherein Rodney thinks he’s found out Sheppard’s secret. Because Rodney’s always right. Right?

What You Trust by Tex | 14k, e, s4

He's never been good at asking for what he wants. Well, not politely. And especially not when it's something personal. "Come on, let's snuggle," or "I need a hug" are words that have never passed his lips.

Forty-Two by cathalin | 5k, e, 4x13

Maybe John has been paying more attention to Rodney than he's realized. Rodney does some thinking, and then tests a hypothesis.

Delicate Man by Ladycat | 1k, g, 4x16

Sheppard gave him a look. "Do you want to go on hurting?"

Get You Back by lamardeuse | 1k, e, 4x16

John nearly loses everything.

Manly Consolation and Whatnot by Persiflager | 9k, e, 4x16

“No jerking off,” said Rodney miserably. “Just when I could really use the endorphins.” He drank his beer mournfully in his awkward, two-handed grip before finally giving up, setting it back down on the table and glaring at it as if the bottle was personally responsible for his injuries.

John counted to ten. “I could help with that.”

Silent Running by Anonymous | 1k, e, 4x17

John/Rodney, silent sex. Needing to reconnect after Midway, but having to stay as quiet as possible because Kavanagh and Bill Lee are in the back of the Jumper and are very not invited.

Rush by Siria | 1k, t, 4x17

"No."

End of All Things by dapperanachronism | 1k, t, 4x20

When the stasis pod opens, the hologram Rodney is waiting there, just like he promised.

The Same River Twice by DragoJustine | 3k, e, 4x20

John comes back from 48,000 years in the future, and has to figure out how *this* Rodney could ever have become *that* Rodney.

That Comfort Thing by lavvyan | 3k, g, 5x01

John wants something he doesn't think he can have.

Calamity of So Long Life by busaikko | 1k, t, 4x10 / 5x04

Daedalus Variations alternate reality fic; AU of Mortal Coil. It had seemed like a really good idea. A lot of his good ideas, in retrospect, sucked.

Never Gonna Happen by Brumeier | <1k, t, 5x06

LJ Comment Fic for Love prompt: Stargate: Atlantis, John Sheppard/Rodney McKay, Comforting each other.

In which Rodney and John attempt to comfort each other while Rodney suffers through Second Childhood.

Having by unamaga | <1k, g, 5x06

Rodney bears the team’s hovering and constant check-ins remarkably well for the first few days after he’s released from the infirmary.

broken, as you clutch the sleeve of my jacket and beg me not to leave by respoftw | 1k, g, 5x06

Rodney forces himself to watch the tapes a week after he’s discharged from the infirmary.

He picks one at random and spends the next twenty minutes throwing up in his toilet.

John and Rodney, mid-The Shrine.

Unaccepted by Xparrot | 5k, t, 5x06

Sometime it's frightening, how easily these people from Earth face down nightmares and conquer them.

On The Pier by hestia_lacey | 6k, m, 5x06

Following the events of The Shrine, Jeannie talks to John.

Primacy by Chandri | 7k, g, 5x06

It's most of a week before it starts to come back, but Rodney always remembers this: the terror at waking alone, blind panic driving him out into the corridors, only one goal on his mind, only one place where he'd be safe. John.

Convenience by Kass | <1k, e, 5x09

"So why'd you decide to go after her in the first place?" Set after S5 x 09, "Tracker."

Jennifer's Choice by velocitygrass | 1k, t, 5x09

Intentions by cathalin | 3k, g, 5x09

Ronon knows some truths.

Bet Me by Siria | <1k, g, 5x14

"Shake on it?" John says, and this is honestly not how Rodney would have predicted his day would end.

Reward by Kass | <1k, m, 5x14

"Did your mom really let you cry yourself to sleep?" A tiny episode tag for S5 x 14, "Prodigal."

Many More by waterfallliam | 1k, t, 5x14

An alternate take on what could have happened in the Jumper in s05ep14 The Prodigal.

Not Anymore by hestia_lacey | 2k, t, 5x14

An episode tag of sorts to The Prodigal in which there are cars, and we revisit That Scene in the puddle jumper.

Just A Little Freakout by wneleh | <1k, g, 5x15

Just a little John freakout, because this fandom needs more smarm.

The Whole Story by unadrift | 2k, t, 5x15

John shows up at his door that night, carrying a sixpack of beer. Rodney follows him into the transporter and out to the pier. They settle down, feet dangling over the edge, and John hands him a can.

"So," Rodney says, after they each have finished off a beer. "I figure this is your subtle way of telling me that you want to talk?"

Better Than Ice Cream by DesireeArmfeldt | 2k, t, 5x15

Episode tag to Remnants: McKay wants to know what Sheppard saw in his hallucination. (Gen/friendship or pre-slash, depending on the color of your goggles.)

For Better or Worse by Brumeier | 1k, t, 5x16

LJ Comment Fic for Quotes prompt: Stargate Atlantis, Rodney McKay/ John Sheppard, “I'm selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best.”

― Marilyn Monroe

Brainstormed by Kass & Sihaya Black (beledibabe) | 15k, e, 5x16

John's mind was already made up, but he couldn't resist yanking Rodney's chain a little bit. "Hmm," he said. "A room full of physicists; a long-winded presentation I probably won't understand. Yeah, it doesn't really sound like fun."

This fic does exactly what it says on the tin.

it could've started like this... by dedkake | 64k, m, multi-season

Apply When Needed by Cesare | <1k, g, post-canon

a comfortable distance by kiden | 2k, t, post-canon

It's team movie night. John is maybe drunk but probably not, Rodney introspective, Teyla is content, and Ronon is sleeping.

*This touches on extended or missing scenes from the series. If you haven't watched or aren't familiar with the big Rodney & John interactions, it may be difficult to follow.
