Summary: A grieving McKay returns to Earth and visits his sister.

Recommended because . . .

Lovely Jeannie's POV as she struggles to support her brother; the emotions are real, the feeling of family is palpable, and it slides so perfectly into canon that I half-forget it didn't actually happen on-screen.

It was hard on Rodney, but it wasn't exactly a picnic for Radek, either. Wonderful Radek & Rodney friendship; the storytelling is top-notch, you can feel the chill of the water, and hey, Zelenka h/c, free of charge!

Plotty and exciting, with convincing, in-character resolution that's all the more satisfying because it addresses the issues of trust between Ronon and Teyla as well as Rodney and John.

Summary:  "Listen, I saw Ellia, I know how fast this-- this transformation can take place.  If we don't do something soon, he'll--," Rodney's voice cracks, "he'll--"

I've revisited another of my mini_nanowrimo stories.  I thought I'd cross post several of the better ones here.  I promise not to spam.  Some of the earlier ones were only posted to my journal, so I thought I'd share.

Rec: "Transformation" by cesperanza (Conversion/McKay and Mrs Miller)

Recommendation

Title: Transformation
Author: cesperanza
Episode and type of story: Mensa AU tag to Conversion
Rating: Adult
Category: slash
Pairing: Mensa!John/Rod
Warnings: none
File size: 15K
Excerpt: "I just want to see you," Rod said, and J.R. jerked his arm up and stifled a laugh against his sleeve; there is no positive integer less than one. He turned and pressed his scaly forehead hard against the cool wall, trying not to giggle.

"No, Doctor," he said. "You really don't."

Recommended because . . .

It's a brilliant sort-of reversal of the characters as we know them, and bug!John is always weirdly hot, even when he's in another universe.
