Author Notes::![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
torakowalski said she'd really like to see a realistic Virgin!John fic, and I got to thinking about it and couldn't stop. I tried my very best. This is for her.
On my webpage because it was too big for one post. Oops.
Lost in Waiting
Feedback makes me happy - multiple times. *G*
ETA: A huge thank you to everyone for reading and commenting. This is the most response I've ever had on a fic, and it's overwhelming in the best possible way. I usually respond to all comments, but I don't think I'll be able to this time, although I'll try to get to as many as possible. Thank you so much. ~Lacey

Date: 2006-05-24 12:26 am (UTC)Now, about this story.
God, there are not enough words to explain to you how much I love it. I'm sitting here with a lump in my throat and my hands are shaking, and I haven't had this kind of reaction in a long time. This touched so much of my kink, my tenderness buttons, it's not even funny.
I loved this slow exploration into John's youth, and his confrontations with Rodney, and the way this entire story was structured and just, yeah, the entire thing basically. This definitely deserves a reread (or a few dozen more).
Also, some of my favourite parts:
"So, this would be the reason you were pissed about the movie?” -- I started laughing so hard when I read this; great tension reliever.
It was bitterly cold and John thought they should have let her wear the pink fuzzy slippers instead of the uncomfortable shoes with the square black heels, but his father had said, “Don’t be stupid, John,” and he hadn’t even had the chance to say he just wanted her to be warm. -- This broke me.
“Sheppard?” Rodney swallowed and jiggled his wrist. “That—that hurts,” he said softly. -- This did too.
“It’s not different. I’ve fucked men, been fucked.” Rodney’s voice is steady and he’s got to notice John’s face is a screwed-up mess of emotions. He’s being crude just to make a point. “Sucked cock, and seriously, I’m a huge fan of blowjobs, doesn’t matter who’s giving them.” -- God, I love Rodney in this.
“In-vul-ner-able,” John sing-songs, and Rodney laughs, pressing his forehead against John’s. -- *melts*
