"Sheppard, where are you going? It's cold outside," Rodney said, struggling to not sound annoyed. He didn't want John leaving the jumper; he found no reason for them to spend the night shivering. At least, not from cold. As much as he'd like them to shiver together for different reasons, he knew that was an absurd daydream.

John accepted this mission with eyes wide open, and he was ready to set up outside the parked jumper. "Yes?" he finally offered.
"Did you really think I meant for us to freeze while recording the meteor showers?"
Giving a glance at the rolled up sleeping bags designed for frigid weather, John raised his eyebrows. Less could be more with Rodney.
