one thing that makes me really heart-clenchy happy

[aesc]

I am kind of crummy-feeling today, victim to the most recent campus-wide virus and general exhaustion following two weeks of (IMHO) very unnecessary stress.

But I was thinking over one thing last night before the cough medicine kicked in, and then I thought about it this morning while slogging through the rain/sleet/snow to class.


That Rodney calls John by his first name now. After three years of rank and/or last name, John sounds so much more intimate and makes Rodney sound so much more vulnerable because it seems like he saves it for when, e.g., he's pleading with John in "Miller's Crossing" or worried for him in "Harmony" and I just... My heart! What it goddamn does to my heart! It makes it do this weird meep-clench-eeeee thing that I didn't think my cranky, slightly cynical 29-year-old heart has ever done before in its life.

I can't even be reasonable or coherent about it, I LOVE IT THAT MUCH.

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

I know that I've read Rodney saying John in a million billion fanfics, but in canon... I am sorry, but that just makes me excessively joyful. Oh, the two of them :>

*meep-clench-eeee's happily*

Dude, for serious! I am the same. It both freaks me out and gives me great joy when he uses the "John," because I'm just not accustomed to it and I think I might love it a little too much, you know? After so long, it's just like you said - it just sounds so intimate and vulnerable. *loves*

So much love. *hand over heart swoony type thing*

Oh yes yes! For all that I've read it in zillions of fics, it's one thing to read and another thing to hear him say it. I have to say that it threw me at first, but now every time I think about it, I love it a little more :">

it this weird meep-clench-eeeee thing

Well, NOW I know what to call that feeling I get when I hear that "John."

It's the intimacy of it that I love and that their actually giving us that.

It's about as accurate as I can get :D It's a sensation that defies description, I think.

*pats you gently* They really do make everything better with their blazingly hot and awesomely adorable manlove. *siiiiiiiiiigh*

I was very determined to be 100% miserable today because, really, I just wanted to be home with tea and my dog and a book, and not trying to be professional, but dammit, they dont let me! Their blazingly hot and awesomely adorable manlove will not permit it.

*siiigh!*

The nerve of them. Tsk! I mean, how dare John have a lower lip like that, right? That Rodney just cannot stop staring at. Especially when he busts out that ridiculous pout. I mean, it's practically begging to be nibbled. A man can only take so much, you know?

[aesc.livejournal.com]

I am very displeased with them! Can you tell? :D

[amberlynne.livejournal.com]

I feel so helpless, unable to make them stop being so adorable!

[villainny.livejournal.com]

Hee, I love it when I know so exactly what someone means.

:D

They made us wait for that, for so long, like you said. And it STILL isn't old. I don't think it ever will be.

[aesc.livejournal.com]

Get used to it :D

*dons hazmat suit for hugs!*

And it STILL isn't old. I don't think it ever will be.

If it ever is, I will turn in my remaining supply of estrogen and my Fangirl Association of the World card :D

For reals. Personally, I am still thinking about them all wet and making out in the Sheppard family pool house.

Jenns and I are discussing this very thing :> :>

It still gets me every damn time. Like embarrassing-noises-and-flailing-of-hands-gets-me.

You guys so cheer me up! Thanks!
Love, max

Yes yes yes! It always means something deep when Rodney says it, whether he's pleading or scared or whatever and it's the way he says it all deep and serious and it makes my guts go all twisty.

::takes deep breath::

That's so cute of you.

My husband and I have a game now during SGA where when something slashy between McKay and Sheppard happens (ie things I'd expect to see my lj friends comment on) we race to call it out.

And since I haven't gotten around to say it anywhere else, can I just say that if Ronon had to go to someone other than ME, at least he's looking at another Wisconsin girl. Booyah ;)

[aesc.livejournal.com]

YES. Even thinking about it! *is joyfully pathetic*
