AN: I'm totally new to the SGA fandom, only recently watching it with relish on Netflix, and I haven't even finished season 5 yet (Just finished the Shrine). So this is my first stab at some SGA fic because GOD THERE IS SO MUCH GOOD STUFF OUT THERE and I love it all. Especially McKay-centered stuff because he is my favorite character, one of the best characters ever created.

So to start out I wrote some dumb email exchanges between Rodney and Jeannie, I just love their relationship. This is set just after "Trio". Some security thing won't let me put the silly email addresses I made up for them in the document. Sad. I have to format it weirdly :/

Let me know what you think!

Jeannie,

Sorry I haven't been able to write very regularly lately, things here have been particularly disastrous to the point of absurdity. I know what you're thinking but none of it was my fault, I just live here. In fact I've only had the time to write now because I'm currently infirmed, don't worry nothing serious, just some rope burn on my hands.

I thought I should let you know, since you seem so invested, that my relationship with Katie has ended. We had a long conversation and mutually decided it was best for both of us if we saw other people. She's been homesick and naturally I can't leave, so it was really a very good decision. Sorry I won't be bringing her for Christmas.

While on that topic, any ideas what Maddie might want for Christmas? I don't think I'll have time to stop by a store before I get to your place, so it may have to be something "exotic."

Also Christmas-related, I was wondering if Sheppard could come. His father died recently and I think he could use some cheering up. Maybe Caleb can give him a sparknotes summary of War and Peace too because I swear to god he hasn't made any progress. (FYI he likes real meat too, I know you don't want to be rude to our guest).

Anyway, hope you and the family are doing well. I'll try not to get killed before the holidays.

See you soon,

Dr. Rodney McKay, PhD
