Summary: You grow up and leave your family. That’s how it’s supposed to be.
A/N: I love, love,
love stories where Rodney’s childhood is positively gothic, but my personal canon has shifted a bit and I now see the McKays as ordinary, rather sad people who tried their best. I also think the ancient gene is recessive, with a very random pattern of inheritance.
My profound apologies to anyone who knows anything about Euclid, or geometry. It made sense when I translated it at 4 am.( A long time ago, our family came from the sea )
