Link: The Man with the Clockwork Heart
Why This Must Be Read: A wonderfully-built world where John Sheppard needs a clockwork heart to survive - and he must sacrifice emotion to stay alive. Rodney’s characterization in this new setting is spot-on, and Kate has a chance to shine.
Kate and Ronon were both at John's bedside when he returned to consciousness.
"Good, you're awake," Ronon said, gruffly. "Took you long enough this time."
"Thank the gods!" Kate replaced the cloth on John's forehead with a cooler one. "Janus warned your mother that strong feelings were more dangerous than over-exertion," she fretted, wringing her hands in distress. "I could have lost both of you in one day."
Brushing aside any assistance, John sat up and shoved back the blanket covering him. "That won't be a problem," John assured her, his face composed as he rose to his feet. "It won't happen again. I can control my emotions."
And, from then on, he did just that, hiding everything behind a smirk and a flat hazel gaze.
