Where Did All the Physics Go? by Amireal

John by kHo
This is a great crossover of Dexter and Stargate Atlantis. Creepy and funny in turns, just like the show.
My name is John. John Sheppard. I don’t know what made me the way I am, but whatever it was left a hollow place inside. People fake a lot of human interactions, but I feel like I fake them all. I fake them very well. That’s my burden I guess. I don’t blame my parents for that, Mary and Nathan Sheppard did a wonderful job raising me.
But they’re both dead now. I didn’t kill them.
Honest.

Five things John Sheppard envied Cam Mitchell by Splash the Cat

Or maybe about Mitchell’s hair.

High Maintenance by Notadate
Daniel and his wife visit Atlantis. Is the Pegasus galaxy ready for Vala? Not hardly.
“I don’t know if I envy Jackson or feel sorry for him,” Baker said.
“She’s a heck of a woman, but a little too high maintenance for my tastes,” Lorne said.
Teyla paused. “Has Doctor Jackson arrived?”
“Jackson, Vala, and Imelda Marcos’ shoe collection.”
“Imelda Marcos had a lot of shoes,” Lorne explained, just in case Teyla had forgotten her ability to infer.
I really, really like stories from Teyla’s point of view, so of course I would like one the that shows her take on my favourite SG-1 character.

Ordinary Life by Shalott, Speranza
John and Rodney go on a vacation which doesn’t turn out quite as planned.
“Oh, shut up,” Rodney said, panting, when he climbed out after five laps and dropped back into his chair. “We don’t have much of a swimming season in Edmonton. I bet I could kick your ass ice skating.”
“Sure, and if that were a real sport instead of something teenage girls do, maybe I’d care,” John said, tipping the bag back for the last crumbs.
“A man who uses as much hair gel as you do should not be casting aspersions on teenage girls,” Rodney said. “You want to take a walk along the beach?”
“As long as you don’t ask me to hold hands,” John said.
