Title: MVP (74k) Author: Speranza Pairing: Sheppard/McKay Postcard: here Summary: "All right, all right, nothing to see here," he heard Sheppard say. "You've seen one giant snake, you've seen 'em all."
Right, what do you do with a really smart soldier? Watch him very carefully (and despair if you happen to fall in love him).
Except -- hurrah -- even John can be saved by the love of a good man! I believe it completely and this story makes me just idiotically happy. It's just too lovely to read a John who, of course, couches the profound truths of his life in sports metaphors.
even John can be saved by the love of a good man! Absolutely, he can--you can see it happening in the story!--and yes, yes, there's really a ton layered into to that "MVP", so much that isn't said about who they are. And I die at your description of Rodney's naked, naked face--thank you!

OK, and dear Rodney with his naked, naked face.
Just gorgeous.
