Fic: qua torva res es (McKay/Sheppard, NC-17)

From [livejournal.com profile] scarlettandblue with love for [livejournal.com profile] silverraven11
The request [livejournal.com profile] silverraven11 made is at the end of the story. I hope I managed to deliver on some of what you wanted.
Beta read by [livejournal.com profile] maaseru who has done the most fabulous job ever under very trying circumstances, i.e., me taking a very long time to write a pretty long story! Thank you so much for all your help.
I also admit I fiddled with it again after it came back from its final beta reading, so any mistakes you spot are all me.

Warnings:
It's a sort of canon AU, in that this is an AU of an AU that canon created. Slash. Swearing and sex and a few owies for our dear boys. So pretty much NC17 I'd say....

Disclaimer:
And of course I don't own John or Rodney (I wish!!) or any of the SGA and SG1 crew,
or any Navajo Tribal Police officers from new Mexico. But playing with them is such fun and you shouldn't sue anyone for having fun, should you?

This was fascinating. The slow-reveal plot was great and had me on the edge of my seat, but it's your characterisation that made me reread again and again. I adore your John and Rodney, of course, but you made me also really believe in, and care about, your Jeannie and Madison and Nancy and John's colleagues and even the cat. A really lovely unusual story.

thank you so much, you are very kind
I'm so glad you enjoyed it
and I'm pleased you liked the other characters.
It's hard sometimes to know if you managed to make
the supporting cast work as well. You know you can pour
your heart and soul into John and Rodney and they just
take whatever you have to give, but it's a relief to hear the other's worked as well.
