unadriftTo forget about sad-making things, I've added a few stories to my McKay/Sheppard fic recs. The new recs are also listed by category here.
Rated PG-13, 7000 words.
John stares at him, his baffled look a reasonable facsimile of the genuine article; then he shrugs. "Don't ask me," he says, "I'm just a figment of your imagination."
Rated R, 1500 words; for them just being guys.
Do Over by Crysothemis
Rated NC-17, two parts, 19000 words; for the oh-so-good badsex.
John never sleeps with anyone twice.
King Philip Came Over for Good Soup by argosy
Rated PG, 570 words; for the "John".
Jump by velocitygrass
Rated PG, 1300 words.
Never in a million years had he suspected that Sheppard wasn't straight.
Rated PG, 790 words.
In all the scenarios Rodney imagined (and being a genius, he imagined a lot), this wasn’t one of them. He envisioned ridicule, fear, threats, backlash, heart attacks, an angry Caldwell, a legal nightmare… but laughter? Amusement? Disbelief? Rodney hadn’t predicted those, and considering his extreme paranoia, he probably should have.
There Is No Mystery Left by kiden
Rated R, 1300 words.
Teyla turns on him like a wild beast, a hand clutching at a chunk of her own hair, and growls, "If you don't get us out of this time loop, I'm going to castrate you."
Which makes Rodney cover is crotch defensively and Ronon laugh with delight.
"You're stuck in a time loop?" Sheppard says for the 34th time.
Rated R, 10200 words. The one with the fireman and the subway crash.
Water Your Dreams by amireal and ladycat_777
Rated NC-17, 13000 words. The one where they end up on the yacht.
He's about to ask for four chocolate and cream things to be boxed up, thinking a good meal needs a real ending, when the guy next to him breathes out slowly and happily. Something in that breath catches John's attention and he turns to see broad shoulders and a cup of coffee.
"There's nothing like a bakery," the man says, too happy to modulate his tone or even care if he's garnering an audience.
Wide Open Ocean by Setissma
Rated R, 10600 words. The one with the vetinarian and the dolphins.
Rated NC-17, 2200 words; just guh.
Every Day in Every Way by velocitygrass
Rated NC-17, 58000 words. Also angsty. And with romance. No, really.
"I'm here to propose an arrangement. Between us. I assume you remember our talk from earlier today and how... challenging dating can be on Atlantis. And since we've established that you're attracted to me, I think it would be mutually beneficial for us to have sex."
