Addicted to SGA

I finally wrote an sga fic again!!!

My absolute favorite book series ever is The Musketeer books by Dumas. And my favorite scene ever was when D’Artagnan was sent to arrest Athos and instead he showed up and tried to convince Athos to escape.

So I had to imagine what would this look like as a SGA team fic with McShep. I am so excited I finally made it happen!

Summary: Declassification transforms into a devastating confession. Rodney’s ready to accept life in prison, but John has other plans.

I made a podfic for this, one of my favorite stories of mine.

@cassiope25 made me awesome cover art for this! @massharp1971 was kind enough to beta.

Why do I make podfics of my own work? Accessibility. I know people who have to listen instead of read. I welcome others to make podfics of my stuff, and prefer to hear other voices, but I think getting as many fics on audio as possible is a worthwhile goal and making some myself is better than not at all.

Thanks @sgatazmy for letting me do the cover art for this wonderful work!

Go ahead and listen and read! 💜

John watched as Rodney moved the bishop to take his knight, those deft fingers decisive, sure.

A minute ago, John had a plan. A minute ago, it would have been checkmate in ten moves. Now, he found his brain emptying of everything except the thought of Rodney’s fingers.

This happened periodically, no matter how John tried to stamp out the little fires that would start up, thinking of Rodney’s hands. Imagining Rodney’s hands on him. When they moved confidently over Ancient machinery, sometimes John's mind briefly wandered to what they might be like on his skin. Or when – John gulped – when Rodney snapped his fingers at John, all demanding, John imagined how pushy Rodney would be in a whole other context...

As if he was reading John’s mind, McKay snapped his fingers right in John’s face, and he was suddenly, painfully aware he was hard.

"Ground control to Major Space Cadet!" Rodney said, his face amused.

"Um... Sorry, Rodney, I was just thinking about..." John couldn't imagine how to end that sentence, though.

"Sheppard?" 

Rodney looked at him like he was an equation to solve, and John felt stripped bare, all his secrets so easily readable.

"Oh," Rodney said, his voice a little breathless, as he found his answers. "I, um..."

He tipped his king. Carefully packed away the board that sat like a chaperone between them on Rodney’s bed. Each piece placed just so in the box, fingers methodical, precise, unhurried. The air in the room was so thick with... something, that it was suddenly hard to breathe and getting warmer by the moment.

Rodney snapped the little case shut, sliding the catch into place. John watched his fingers, rivetted, wanting. 

And then he was caught. Rodney saw, really saw, the intensity of his look. He smiled shyly, and his eyes became bluer as his pupils dilated.

So @sgatazmy and I were talking yesterday about how absolutely anything can be mcshepped and to prove it, Tazmy presented me with this bit of batshit fic:

I needed cheering up, thanks Taz 💜

she also told me there is penguin mcshep out there, so if any of you know where it is please hmu. @cassiope25? @dedkake?

That's the first that comes to my mind. There are more but for the moment have a look at this one...

This sga story by NotTasha is so brilliant.

I can’t even express how awesome. Rodney gets to talk to the ghosts of people who have died in Atlantis and they show him how much he is cared about while also trying to help him return to the living…It just…it makes me cry tears of happiness.

Dumais shines as a character along with several other characters we never got to see enough of in the show. We get Gordon!!!

The whole story is lovely and creative. It opens a whole world of possibilities for a cool AU universe.

I can’t recommend this beautiful, new NotTasha sga fic!

He looked gorgeous- his suit was black with a dark purple shirt and matching tie. The light from the windows behind him gave him a glow, making him look divine.

Elizabeth needs more chances to be in ludicrous stories. So now that reveals have happened, I can say this ridiculous fic was by me. Because who doesn’t need a farting demon that burps out Stargates?

I wrote a fic with cover art and a podfic.

Rodney knows John cares for him and doesn’t mean any harm, but it still hurts. So how exactly does one go about saying, “You’re my best friend and mean the world to me, but I also kind of hate the way you treat me.”

Includes: Existential pizza musings, Rodney’s cat, trying to smuggle Todd off to karaoke, and independent Atlantis. Humor/crack not to be taken seriously.

Thanks to Cassiope25 for the screencap.

Rodney had been slowly going insane.

Ever since he and John got locked into those stupid bracelets on M64-776, Rodney's wrist had been vibrating practically nonstop. Rodney had threatened the Colonel numerous times, but he never stopped pressing the little button on his that triggered the response in Rodney's

Such a cute SGA ficlet.
