Why This Must Be Read: Radek/Ronon is one of my favourite pairings, hands down. And I place the credit (or blame) for that on [livejournal.com profile] chopchica and this story. This was posted shortly after the beginning of Season 2, and if my memory serves, Radek and Ronon had not actually shared any screen-time. But it really worked for me.

You have Radek being observant, Ronon being big and menacing, and Rodney snarking. There's also a little Sheppard/McKay in there for those whose tastes run that way ^_^ All in all, one of my favourites.


By coincidence (or the cruelty of fate, as Rodney put it), today was lemon squares day, and Radek had been banished to the mess, lest he trip and accidentally shove lemon into Rodney’s mouth. Radek didn’t mind. He worked his way through a pile of reports, stabbing absently at his salad whenever he remembered.

Somebody sat down at the other side of his table, and Radek looked up to see Ronon Dex, holding his gaze implacably for a minute before turning to his food and shoveling it into his mouth. It was the first time they had been so close to each other but not the first time Radek had caught Ronon Dex watching him.

Rodney had been right; Ronon Dex did look like he was starving. Radek watched curiously as he ate.

“So,” he said finally, “You are the new personnel, Ronon Dex.”

“Yes.” His voice was deep and rumbling, almost a growl.

“You come from a civilized planet, yes? Active military, tall buildings, heavy machinery.”

“So?”

“So, it is impossible to believe such a planet would lack basic cutlery.”

Ronon Dex put down his handful of salad and stared at Radek. Radek stared back before looking down toward his belt.

“It would have been more believable if you had stabbed at things with your knife.”

Ronon Dex nodded slowly. “I was waiting to see if anybody noticed.”

Radek shrugged. “Oh, I am sure it was noticed. It is our job to notice. Nobody has said anything?”

“You said something.” Ronon Dex nodded at him, before getting up and leaving the room.

Very intriguing, Radek thought to himself, and then turned back to another report.
