.fic link: Mail Call (John/Rodney)

First class from Nantucket:
If you loved Postcard, then you will love [livejournal.com profile] dogeared's beautiful Mail Call, in which John gets his postcard, things don't get said, but both of them get it anyway.

Also, it must be said I am very resentful of fic ideas that 1) come out of nowhere, 2) torment me while I'm trying to work, and 3) when I finally make time to pay attention to them, refuse to cooperate.

Really, it's just cruel.

On the other hand... Rodney as a mnemonist, like S.V. Shereshevskii or Funes the Memorious. Please tell me this hasn't been done.

In other news: Neighborhood association had a bunch of open houses today, and I observed two terribly cute guys going around one house.

Guy #1: Maybe we could paint over the moldings?
Guy #2: No way in hell!

I live in a neighborhood where people are either a.) married, or b.) way too slashable. Dammit.

.eta: completely useless, self-referential link fixed!

And now I'm picturing John and Rodney in fixer-upper mode. With plastering and painting and John wanting sparkly curtains and Rodney not believing how gay John can be....

*cackles* I told [livejournal.com profile] dogeared that I briefly imagined them as neighbors on "Trading Spaces," when they each have to redecorate a room in the other's house :D

Rodney's study, of course, would end up with sparkly curtains.
