Summary: A newly discovered Ancient facility sends Sam and Rodney to a world with no stargate. (~11,000)

Why This Must Be Read:
This is a Sam/Rodney friendship fic with a tiny hint of UST for those who like to see it; the story is 100% gen. (There's no separate Sam/Rodney friendship category, and it's mainly those two in this story - their relationship is in the forefront so I figure it still fits...)

I love the way both characters are explored here. It's intriguing to see Rodney through Sam's eyes, see just how far he's come - how far their friendship has come - since the more than rocky beginning.

Why This Must Be Read: This fic is a short, delightfully sweet, Radek's birthday fic. Radek doesn't expect anything and Rodney takes him by surprise.
