Title: The Chart

Characters: Sheppard/McKay
Prompt: 37 - Make-up
Rating: Teen
Length: Short
Brief summary: This is an adorable story about the things Rodney misses most: Muffins, Cheetos, and John Sheppard.



Regardless of the circumstances, break-ups were difficult and painful. Sometimes they were caused by drunken flirting with a pretty girl, sometimes because the other person would not stop squeezing your toothpaste in the *middle* (even when they knew you hated that) and sometimes they were the logical result of knowing the relationship would lead to bad places.

John had received that flash of knowledge while watching some trigger-happy Genii hold a gun to Rodney's head. In that instant he'd *known* -- without any doubt -- that he wouldn't think clearly with Rodney in danger. That if it came to a choice between Rodney's life and the lives of thousands, he'd choose Rodney.

So he'd done the only sane, logical thing: break up.

Prompt: 38 - Kiss
Rating: Teen
Length: Short
Brief summary: Each segment of this "4 kisses" story paints a great picture, each over visual and in-character with what we know of the guys. The scenes are fun and build quickly, one piled on top of another, to the final moment, trying to get it right.


By any measure, their first kiss was a disaster.


John had been drugged and loopy, more falling over and slumping on Rodney than leaning into the kiss, and while Rodney was willing to say that yes, John had nice lips, they really were more attractive when they weren't smooshed against his with – oh god – drool coming from between them.

It didn't help that John passed out in the middle of it.
