[zvi-likes-tv.livejournal.com]

Claim: Stargate Atlantis, Ronon Dex
Title: Outward Bound
Author: Hth hth_the_first
Characters: Charles Gunn (pov), Ronon Dex, John Sheppard, Teyla Emmagan, Rodney McKay (peripherally)
Prompt: 33. Crossover (Angel the Series)
Rating: Nc-17
Length: Long
Brief summary: I admit, this story is more about Gunn than about Dex. But Gunn and Dex have lead strangely parallel lives, and Hth plays nicely with the similarities of these two guys from different worlds, and how their solutions might work for each other.

Claim: Stargate Atlantis, Ronon Dex
Title: Nothing Rhymes
Author: Hth hth_the_first
Characters: Rodney McKay (pov), Ronon Dex, John Sheppard
Prompt: 34. Vacation
Rating: PG
Length: Medium
Brief summary: After they saved Atlantis, Rodney and his smoking hot boyfriends were forced on six weeks of leave on Earth. They fall into a routine. (This story is good because a) Hth manages to inject a moment of tense suspense into a story so domestic it's practically curtainfic and b) she manages to show each of the guys as comfortable in their own skins and with each other, but at the same time very different from each other. Sometimes, in threesomes, characters get mashed, two of them characterized as a unit, but Hth adroitly avoids that trap, and gives us a beautiful day in the life instead.)
