The Descent by Bane_Huntress (M)
Show: SGA
Rec Category: Rodney McKay
Characters: Rodney McKay, John Sheppard, Sam Carter
Pairings: Rodney McKay/John Sheppard
Categories: slash, hurt/comfort, angst, stranded, established relationship
Warnings: none
Words: 14058
Author's Journal on DW: n/a
Author's Website: Bane_Huntress on AO3
Link: The Descent
Author's summary: The guys and Sam get stuck underground on an alien world with no means of escape, with little food they must wait for the Daedalus, only it’s late, very late, and time's running out for McKay.
Why This Must Be Read: It's written in a sensitive outside point of view from Sam. On first sight, it's about her incredulous process of perception of Rodney and John's relationship. But it evolves from there, by seeing it through John's protective and loving demeanor towards Rodney, to an endearing look at Rodney’s courage and humor, at his anxieties and paranoia, and at the seriousness of dealing with his health issues. Altogether, it's a wonderful, intimate statement for John and Rodney's love. And it's combined gorgeously with humorous, entertaining glimpses at every participant of this extraordinary situation they all find themselves in.

Sam slipped over to Sheppard as he stood leaning against the wall.
“Is he all right?” she whispered.
Sheppard didn’t take his eyes off Rodney as he carried on pacing. “No…” he said tersely as he folded his arms over his chest a little tighter. “If the Daedalus doesn’t get here tonight…” the tightness in his posture and voice were enough to make Sam uneasy.
“We are going to die down here like those stupid villages!” Rodney came to another stop, his blue eyes wide as he stared at the wall. “They are waiting till we run out of food… Waiting till I die… Then… Then…” His eyes were full of fear as they looked at Sheppard, then down at his own hands that he held out in front of himself. They were shaking badly. He then held them up to show Sheppard. “John… It’s already to late.” He whispered, the fear in his voice painful to hear.
