Author's Summary:

"Oh, stop sulking. I’ll talk to you when I’m done, but I’m at a critical stage here, and your neanderthal-esque emotional turmoil is a diversion I can’t afford. Go get beaten up by some marines or something while you wait for me.”



Why This Must Be Read: 

Rodney will never be a meek guide and he's busy and John just has to wait for him to finish what he's doing first.

Jack is there to help John and Rodney meet, and the story sounds pretty pre-Atlantis, so it's an SG-1 story technically. But that's not important... letting our boyz play is the most important part.





Pressing the button for level 19 John focuses on the sound and as he descends it gets louder. It becomes apparent that it’s a heartbeat, but why he can still hear one single heartbeat when he’s effortlessly blocking out hundreds of them, he doesn’t know. He lets the wall prop him up again as the elevator goes down, the rhythmic dah-dum dah-dum dah-dum blocking out all other sounds, feeling it deep in his bones. Not even the squeal of the elevator’s hydraulics penetrates through the rhythmic pulse, and it isn’t until someone touches his arm that he realises that the elevator has stopped and the doors are open, O’Neill looking at him with concern.

“Sir!” says John, pulling himself out of his slouch and saluting on instinct, trying to pull his mind away from the heartbeat.

“Jeez, Colonel,” says O’Neill. “I thought I broke you out of that habit already.”

“Sorry sir,” says John, scrubbing his prickly jaw. “It’s been a long weekend.”

O’Neill eyes his rumpled shirt with a smirk. “I’ll bet it has. Come on, I’m due for an update in one of the labs. You can tell me all about it after Carter shows off her new toy.”
