Rec Category: John Sheppard/Rodney McKay
Characters: Rodney McKay/John Sheppard, Teyla Emmagan, Aiden Ford, Elizabeth Weir, Carson Beckett
Categories: M/M
Warnings: There's some grief and loss, but regarding original characters. No Archive warnings apply.

Author's Website: Brighid on AO3 and lots of smaller fics on sga flashfic here (as mz_bstone)
Link: Referencing Gilbert Ryle on Wayback
Why This Must Be Read: Brighid is a talented writer and this is an early work that's now only available on the Wayback Machine. Because it's from the first part of the fandom, asterisks are used to indicate italics, and Kavanagh's name is spelled differently. This is like a benign version of S2E16, The Long Goodbye, where a device implants two near-Ancient personalities into John and Rodney. But this time they're lovers, not fighters - lovers who haven't been able to touch each other for thousands of years. It's a bit sad as the recreated personalities are temporary, and it affects John and Rodney deeply. A lovely story, very much recommended. (Gilbert Ryle was a philosopher interested in mind/body and consciousness.)
