dogeared with this since I picked up her prompt, "what are the contents of Rodney's pockets?"
I hope the good news is that "Pockets" is a little one-page comic that can double as a wallpaper! Yes, you can have a silly story about John and Rodney being dorks plastered on your desktop, if you don't mind 1024.768 resolution. Or silly stories about John and Rodney being dorks.

Pockets: Or, The Three Stages in the Relationship of John Sheppard and Rodney McKay
Screw Up Apologize. Badly. Insult & make up.
Okay, when you say it's in a pocket, find it yourself, I'm too busy then you shouldn't be surprised when someone goes digging and finds stuff.
The someone in question shouldn't be surprised when they find stuff, I guess. Probably.
[I was looking for... hell, I can't even remember. But what I did find was] a bunch of cords, a laptop battery, some power bars, epipens, this really cool Swiss Army knife I got him... it has a flash drive in it.
[And a folded-up piece of paper.]
"And did you mean what you said in the note? About the... you know. The thing you said."
"What the fuck? John... fuck."
"This is better than Blades of Glory."
"Ronon..." Teyla sighs.
It probably wasn't a good idea to say all that in front of Teyla and Ronon.

[The note:] Sheppard: If you find this and I'm dead, I wanted you to know that ------

There aren't a lot of places in Atlantis where Rodney goes to sulk. It's a good thing... Atlantis is a big place.
"Heyyyy, Rodney."
"Sheppard."
Crap. It's "Sheppard."
"Hey, Rodney, about today..."
"Yes, well, you should have kept it shut. Or developed selective amnesia with respect to anything to do with my vest, or you could have, you know, kept your mouth shut."
Really a bad idea.
"Was it true? The part you crossed out?"
"Yeah. Yeah, it was."
"... Sorry?"
"Yes, you are."
"So what'd it say?"
"You aren't completely stupid."
"Cool."
"It's true."
There is some hidden text you really aren't supposed to see very clearly... lyrics from Ben Folds' "The Luckiest" and the refrain from Eric Clapton's "All Our Past Times."
