Why This Must Be Read: One of my favorites. In this AU, John isn't part of the original Atlantis expedition but finds his way there by way of being a mail order bride for Rodney. John fits into Atlantis and he and Rodney have a lot of feelings while they fall in not actually unrequited love. Great writing and a great slightly shifted version of Atlantis.
It had seemed like a small sacrifice to begin with. Really, who wouldn't trade a handful of conveniences for the glory of living in the lost city of the Ancients, not to mention running the single most important research lab ever, with the prospect of winning at least one if not several Nobel Prizes and utterly crushing the rest of the field. Rodney had signed on the dotted line without a second thought. The only real twinge had been leaving his cat behind, but the biologists were too afraid about potential impact on an alien ecosystem, so domestic pets had been disallowed.
