Don't know where this came from, which seems to be the norm lately.
MGM owns Atlantis. Maybe with the new merger they've got going on they'll make a damn movie about it.
If the truth was to be known, John and Rodney both had the same pet peeve: going to a planet for some sort of peaceful reason only to end up sitting in jail, which is where they found themselves on P3N-5J8. It was a celebration to honor the cooperation treaty between Atlantis and the Hadlorians, until something happened and all hell broke loose.
Rodney groaned and tried to shift his weight from one side of his ass to the other. "How long has it been?"
Sheppard shrugged. "Three hours."
Rodney made a noise of profound disgust.
Sheppard couldn't help but laugh, which of course pissed Rodney off, which of course only made him laugh harder.
"Yes it does," agreed Sheppard. He sighed as the cell went silent, save for the footfalls of the guard that had been studiously walking back and forth through the corridor.
Sheppard noticed Rodney's leg begin to twitch. "So, Rodney, truth or dare?"
"Are you kidding!" Rodney exploded, which brought the guard running to the bars to check on them.
"No," said Sheppard softly, ignoring the guard. "What else are we going to do?"
"Relax," said Rodney as he leaned his head back against the wall. After a moment he sighed. "Truth."
Sheppard smiled. "Good man, Rodney. So, what do you love about Keller?"
Rodney turned and glared at Sheppard, but after a moment his stare softened and he said, "Everything."
Both men jumped when the guard spoke. "You and Doctor Keller areā¦lovers?"
"Yes. So?"
Both men stared as the guard opened the door and beckoned them to follow. "Dr. Keller saved my lover's life," he said as he led them towards the exit. "It is only fitting that I return the favor."
Sheppard clapped Rodney on the shoulder. "See, Rodney? A little truth never hurt anybody!"
