John Sheppard has this tie. You must read the ad copy, because it's awesome.

He picked it up at a small curio/junk shop when he was stationed out in the middle of nowhere and going insane from boredom, because hey, it was cool and when he thought about it, it was pretty swank.
Unfortunately, most women didn't see it that way and anti-tieness was one of the major strikes against Nancy when they got engaged--Nancy even went so far as to tell him that under no circumstances would he wear it around her, with "under no circumstances will you wear it ever" strongly implied. But the drink dumped in his lap, the drink thrown in his face, or Nancy's inclusion of the tie in the prenup failed to shake his faith in the essential swankness of his tie.
So that brings us to now, when the tie becomes a crucial element in his seduction of Rodney McKay. You know that's what happens.
.eta: This possibly gives new meaning to "glowy sex" *muses*
In other news: New Hewlett icon! \o/
And, for those of you still around or just tuned in, model!John and reporter!Rodney improv with

Spanking time!
I very much want to start watching the comm, but it takes huge, bloody chunks out of my productivity... Because really, it's a lot more fun to read old tampon ads than Charles Taylor.
