Why This Must Be Read: This is quite possibly one of the funniest, most random stories about how John and Rodney get together. It all starts as a scientific experiment (to a certain definition of the word 'scientific'). The dialogue is brilliant and the characters spot-on, and Rodney's utter seriousness towards the experiment is both hilarious and endearing.

Author's summary:

Rodney waved a hand. "It's displacement," he said dismissively. "We're displacing our anxiety about being trapped in the middle of another galaxy with life-sucking aliens bent on killing us all."

"So instead of worrying about certain death, we're obsessing over the size of another man's penis." John considered. "Seems healthy enough to me."

"I thought so."
