SGA and Pirates recs.

Here's odd combo for you. I tried find a common thread and could only come up with "spot on characterizations" and "blazingly hot."

Where We Ought to Be by wojelah, John/Rodney, NC-17
Stargate Atlantis
John and Rodney, still reeling from Carson's death, go back to earth to inform Carson's mom. What follows is a compellingly real, sensitive story about how surreal and world-shaking a loss can be, and what it does to change John and Rodney's relationship. Her descriptions of the scenes, her level of detail, her canon characterization of John and Rodney... Where We Ought To Be is a satisfying and touching read.

Hurricane Jack by Shrift, Jack/Will, so very NC-17 and no apologies
Pirates of the Caribbean
Hurricane Jack is so different in fact, I considered putting it on a different page. It's hilarious and hot. Shrift nails Capt. Jack Sparrow's voice, his slightly elevated tone, his mad digressions. You will chuckle all the way through:

"Don't consider it for even a moment!"

"Pirate!" says Jack.

"Well, then consider it unconsidered!" demands Will.

Jack leans closer, Will's body a warm press at hip and leg and shoulder. "I'll consider it unconsidered if you will consider that as a pirate, it's in my very nature to consider it."

Consider it a chaser after the other story. But don't read them back to back. You might get whiplash.
