Stargate Atlantis Drabble: Partings

I'm slow, but I deliver eventually. Last of neppu's birthday drabbles.

Stargate Atlantis – McKay/Zelenka – PG

Partings
(prompt picture)
 

It’s a coward’s way out, but Radek takes it anyway.

He rolls out of the bed and fumbles for his glasses, getting dressed in the dark. His bag is waiting beside the door. Under the blankets Rodney breathes heavy and even, which is how Radek knows that he’s awake.

Neither of them says anything.

The winter outside the hotel hits him in the face like a goodbye, bitter and cold. He takes a cab to the airport, closing his eyes when they pass the turn to the SGC.

Tomorrow Rodney is going home. Radek is just going back to Prague.

I'm predictible - I love pretty and sarcastic. As soon as he started calling the captured wraith "Steve" I was pretty much gone. It's not quite Dean - I think I fell for him sometime in the first ep (hell, it probably started with "I love the smurfs"). I'm sure that I'll hit the fic and fall more in love with one of the more interesting and less obviously pretty boys, but just now - interesting ways for Joe to lose his clothes...

I'm thinking Ronon/anyone might be appealing - he seems to type to show up and make previously hetero boys rethink things. Plus, you can get away from all those Earth roles/moralities.

Crossroads looks beautifully organized, especially after spending most of my fic time on LJ, which tends towards barely funtional chaos - which is part of it's overly entusiastic puppy-dog charm, but still :)

but just now - interesting ways for Joe to lose his clothes... - lol, you have your priorities right there.

One of the most utilised themes in Ronon/Sheppard is Ronon expecting Sheppard to fuck/mark/claim him because that's what commanders in Sateda did and Ronon is all hurt and confused because doesn't Sheppard want him in his team? Cue D/s themed porn. \o/

I'm glad you like the site. The credit of coding and design goes to flordeneu. You may want to friend sga_crossroads for updates.
