Title: Within Reach
Author:
ficbyzee
Rating: NC-17
Length: long
Brief summary:
When John is killed on a mission, Rodney has trouble dealing with his grief. And when John starts showing up in his dreams, he bceomes increasingly convinced that John isn't dead at all. This fic just makes me so happy every time I read it. It's an emotional rollercoaster of a fic, heartbreaking in some places, hilarious in others. Yet somehow
ficbyzee manages to keep it all in balance, Although this fic is very much about Rodney and John, she makes great use of the entire extended Atlantis cast, particularly Elizabeth in her twin roles as a colleague and as a friend.

Length: epic
Brief summary:
Rodney McKay never does anything by halves, so of course he would raise denial to an artform. Because as long as nothing he does with John "counts" he can pretty much postpone his gay freak-out indefinitely. I love the episodic nature of this story, by skipping from encounter to encounter
smittywing maximizes both the hot, fabulous sex and the perfectly-paced emotional arc, as she builds to an ending that is sweet and happy and just utterly perfect.
