"So. May the best man win." Rodney shook hands firmly before turning away to head back for the door.

"Wait." Ronon sounded exactly as he had the other two times he'd called Rodney back.

"Oh, for..." Rodney spun on his heel. "What?"

"Suppose I had ... other intentions." Ronon still had that half-smirk on his face, the one that said Rodney was endlessly amusing.

Rodney grimaced. "What kinds of intentions?" He had the distinct feeling that somewhere he'd lost control of the whole conversation. From the look on Ronon's face, he agreed.

"Maybe... romantic intentions."

Rodney frowned, eyeing Ronon with confusion. "Didn't we already establish that you have them?"

"For Jennifer..." Ronon said slowly.

"Yes, for Jennifer. Of course for Jennifer. Who else would I mean?" Rodney exploded.

"Well..."

"Oh, dear god," Rodney gasped, "It's Sheppard, isn't it? Well, I'm sorry, but no. No no no. You can't have 'intentions' towards both Jennifer and Sheppard at the same time. It's just not ..."

"It's not Sheppard." Ronon's smirk grew into a full-fledged grin.

"Not Shepha... Of course not. That would be.. well. It would be silly of me to think so." Rodney felt his chin lifting defensively. Ronon stepped up into his space, and Rodney had to tilt his head back further to look him in the eyes.

"What if I had some intentions about you?"

Rodney felt his eyes open impossibly wide, and his breath stuck in his throat. He tried to breathe and cough simultaneously and spluttered helplessly, backing up to give himself room to bend over and choke. Ronon gave him a hearty clap on the back.

"I'm pretty patient," Ronon told him as he caught his breath. "I can wait a bit. Eventually I'll make the rest of my... intentions.. known."

Rodney still couldn't draw quite enough breath to reply. Ronon placed his hand on Rodney's back, steadying him, then left it there. Rodney felt the heat soak through the jacket and shirt until it felt as though Ronon was touching bare skin. When he finally pulled away, the tingle lingered.

"Well. Uh. Good we could have this... uh. Talk." Rodney backed rapidly toward the door. Ronon had that infuriating smirk on his face again.

"See you later," he said, low and intimate. "May the best man win."

"Sure," Rodney squeaked, and fled.

Heee! I really enjoyed this, thanks for sharing it. :-D

[skinscript.livejournal.com]

Thanks! It was so clear in my head, how Ronon likes to mess with Rodney's head. (though he totally means it)

[nuetronorange.livejournal.com]

Hee! made me smile, thanks.

[skinscript.livejournal.com]

Thanks! I'm glad it worked. :)

[erda-3.livejournal.com]

I have to agree with your other commenters. Hee! What else can you say to this?

[skinscript.livejournal.com]

Thank you! It was fun to write too.

[debris_k.livejournal.com]

*g* That was wonderful! Now you've left me wondering if Rodney will actually choose between Jennifer and Ronon, or if the decision is already taken out of his hands. More? *puppy eyes*

[skinscript.livejournal.com]

Thanks!

I still have to finish my sequel to Thanks for the Memories! My brain will explode if I take on more...

(But! I *did* think of a sequel to this where Rodney goes and tells John [from Triune] about Ronon's interest, and so John decides to make their threesome a moresome....)

[debris_k.livejournal.com]

(Hunh, that's an interesting thought... The more the kinkier, LOL. ;-) ) (Not sure I've read 'Triune', though - I've been slow at catching up to my to-read list.)

[debris_k.livejournal.com]

Scrap that, of course I've read "Triune", it blew me away, I dunno how I forgot it's title - but I'm wondering why Triune!Rodney would be persuing Jennifer in the first place... But a story a-bit-of-AU-ish of this setting in which Ronon just, you know, *wants* Rodney would be an excellent. Everyone *does* want Rodney, after all! :-D

[skinscript.livejournal.com]

I'm really glad you liked that one too. I'm still zapped by thoughts around it from time to time. :)

I was thinking more - Rodney isn't so much pursuing Jennifer as he is guarding her in his own thoroughly entertaing way, and he's nervous cause - well - RONON, despite being in the three way relationship from Triune.

Everyone *does* want Rodney!

[tarlanx]

LOL!! Let's hope Ronon wins that one!

[skinscript.livejournal.com]

hahaha. I think Ronon's thinking of both of them winning, in the end...

[copracat]

Yes, may the best man win, indeed!

[skinscript.livejournal.com]

:D Ronon was so great in that scene in the show... it was so easy to have him call back Rodney again.

[goblie.livejournal.com]

Ooooh!

Ok I admit to being the most rubbish fic!stalker *ever* because I had no idea this was something you were thinking of. What a cool surprise! *Laughs*

I love Ronon, this flows so well from that scene that I can see him doing this. And it's HILARIOUS!

I had a minute to wonder if he was just messing with McKay, but no, I think he is serious... as well as messing with McKay. Poor Rodney *laughs* But also not because, hello? Seen Ronon?! ;)

Love Rodney in it too though, and how utterly surprised he is and doesn't know what to do with it. I was a little surprised too! *Laughs*

This is just.. cute. Heeeee! Thanks for sharing, Skin. :)

I wouldn't object to a sequel either. I mean, if you're taking votes and stuff... :D

[skinscript.livejournal.com]

I didn't know either til I wrote it. Written and posted inside of 15 minutes. If only they all came so easily!

Thanks, hon!
