You really nailed the voices of the characters in this story. Like, just this "If I were, it would be private information between me and her. Them. Whatever." it John Sheppard to the core. I can hear Joe Flannigan's little drawl and everything. And Rodney, sitting properly on the chair only to move to the floor and talk through his wrists. Such Rodneyness!
I also love that he has a document on John Sheppard's problems, and that he knows John. And John's response to Rodney bemoaning his social inadequacies and praising Keller's patience is so freaking on, because, seriously. And then whole of the end, is so shivery and delightful, and Rodney's messy room and the bright rasp of stubble and feeling eyelashes on his shoulder is good good good.
