Templum Bellonae

McKay becomes attractive to everyone.

We Cannot Live Within by Trakkie

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.

John by kHo

Oh my god, I love this story! John is a robot.

SGA fandom kicks so much ass.

The Difference Engine by Sam Starbuck

After returning from a stressful mission where he was force-fed stimulants, Rodney has trouble sleeping. And then there’s yoga, caffeine withdrawal, glasses, housework, and egg sandwiches.

Ophthalmology by Pares

Those crazy Ancients with their ascension machines! This time, John touches an impotence machine, which puts a hold on his sex life but not on his relationship with Rodney.

Strange How Certain the Journey by Telesilla

(I can’t believe I’m still recommending stuff from last year’s McShep Match! I’ve really been getting behind.)

John and Rodney become trapped in a strange series of rooms while exploring Atlantis.

“Maybe this was a secret lab. I don’t think this kind of… research was sanctioned by the Ancients.”

Rooms by Velocitygrass

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.

Ordinary Life by Shalott and Speranza

Acidimia by Cate

AU. Rodney is a food stylist; John is a fashion photographer. There are further stories in the same universe in her SGA index, but I’m too lazy to link to them right now.

Clean Plate Club by Yin_again

I think this may be the first SGA fic I ever read, back before I knew anything about the show.

Two Men and a Baby by Lamardeuse and Tx_tart

King of Wishful Thinking by Margie

This time, it’s Rodney who wakes up as a woman. (Yes, that’s right. After about six months I’m finally getting around to recommending the McShep Match stories I liked.)

Metamorphosis by Kass

Alberta is really cold in the winter. And The Last Saskatchewan Pirate is the best pirate song ever; I would love this story just for that.

Canada Likes It on Top by Busaikko

AU. John is still heartbroken after the death of his lover. Rodney needs a place to work in peace.
