Why This Must Be Read: Paian's evocative, elegant prose combines with the could-have-beens of Daniel's life to present us with a stunning, heartbreaking sketch of the lost joys Daniel keeps locked away, to be cherished in the secret places of his heart. Savor this one for the oh-so-lovely angst that is still, despite everything, tempered with hope.


On the front door, which no one ever knocks on, is a sign handpainted in a little boy's scrawl that says NO STUPID SENSELESS TRAGEDY ALLOWED. EVER.

Why This Must Be Read:

This is a hilarious crack!fic about Rodney and his pants, or rather, how the lack of them during a crisis challenges John's assumptions about him. John has to deal with Rodney's teasing and Heightmeyer's prodding and his own jealousy while he works out whether Rodney minus pants is a good thing or not.
