SGA fic: Mechanics of Coping

[xparrot]

I got a couple longer things in the works, but keep getting sidetracked. This one isn't an episode tag, though it was inspired by the end of "This Mortal Coil," which I've only rewatched...er...less times than I've rewatched the end of "Miller's Crossing"?

SGA: Mechanics of Coping {6,292 words}
gen, angst; 4th season, post "This Mortal Coil", vague spoilers
After yet another accident on Atlantis, Sheppard goes looking for McKay, and finds him somewhere unexpected.

This is just so great-- it's brilliant to see something exploring Rodney's friendship with Radek, how they rely on each other, scientifically and otherwise. An interesting reversal as well: Rodney at Radek's bedside in the infirmary. His coping mechanisms, and how the team rallies round him, little glimpses into the functioning of Atlantis.

So glad you enjoyed this - I don't write enough Radek, it's a shame, because I do adore him, and what he has with Rodney. Of course Radek is probably happy enough I'm not writing him, considering what I do to him when I do get around to writing him!
