Why This Must Be Read: I have a soft spot for Rodney-and-Sam stories, whether romance or not, probably because a good number of them deal with how much Rodney's changed on Atlantis, and an outside witness (Sam) noticing that. Unsurprisingly and unfortunately, a good number of these stories end up being out-of-character and melodramatic. This story, though, is what I've found to be the cream of the crop.
Free 'Verse shows the changes in Rodney less overtly than in other stories I've read, but they're still very evident. The best part, though, is Rodney's characterisation. He's snarky without being mean, whiny without being annoying, smug without being overly arrogant. I'll admit, this is a feel-good story. But! A well written feel-good story with snarky dialogue, an interesting premise, and awesome physics.
