He looks like Rodney’s best friend – spars with Teyla and runs with Ronon, and to Rodney he says things like, "Don’t worry, I won’t do anything you don’t want me to."
This is a subversive sort of John/Rodney (the author says it's both a buddy fic and not), and it plays with the reader's expectations. It's not a cozy comfort read, but it's memorable, and I dig the twists and turns of the plot. Alternate reality Sheppard in "our" universe. Come on, that's intriguing just imagining it.
Warnings: Fisting, but this was not the main focus of the sex, so don't be scared off if that bothers you.
