A Tale of Two Rodneys (by Alex51324) (Teen)
Apr. 28th, 2026 09:02 pmmific posting in stargateficrecShows: SGA
Rec Category: Rodney McKay
Characters: John Sheppard/Rodney McKay/Rodney McKay, Carson Beckett, Radek Zelenka
Categories: M/M/M
Words: 3657
Warnings: no AO3 warnings apply
Author on DW:alex51324
Author's Website: Alex51324 on AO3, and on LJ
Link: A Tale of Two Rodneys on AO3
Why This Must Be Read: An amusing tale where yet again Rodney accidentally activates an Ancient machine on Atlantis. On this occasion it duplicates him. This of course leads to great consternation and a lot of snark and argument between the Rodneys. Eventually, Radek and the linguists figure out the machine's purpose, and John finally gets rewarded after a very trying day. A fun romp!
This is by the author of "I, Rodney" in which Rodney's an android. You can check that one out at the LJ link above.

Interruptus by likethesoda (E)
Apr. 27th, 2026 10:37 pmcassiope25 posting in stargateficrecShow: SGA
Rec Category: John/Rodney
Characters: John Sheppard, Rodney McKay
Pairings: John Sheppard/Rodney McKay
Categories: slash, voyeurism, masturbation
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Words: 2,169
Author's Journal: n/a
Author's Website: likethesoda on AO3
Link Fic: Interruptus
Author's summary: He gets up to both fingers quickly after that, carefully moving his other hand to his cock and giving it a stroke without toppling over. There’s a dildo in his drawer, right next to the lube and an unused box of condoms– he hasn’t had the time in months, and the only way he’s not fucking himself on it tonight is if–
“Colonel Sheppard to the Control Room. Colonel Sheppard.”
He pulls his hand free and flops back down flat and grumbles, “god dammit.”
Why This Must Be Read: This is an exceptional fic that starts out really funny and makes you laugh and feel for John, who’s desperate but unsuccessful in finding completion. But wow, then the tables are turned, bringing Rodney into play—liking to watch and being bossy—with John doing what he’s told. It will turn you into a melting mess, leaving you desperate for a fan. Enjoy!
