Marriage!

[crooked-halo8.livejournal.com]

I'm looking for McShep fics in which the boys get engaged and/or married. I just read Check One, which was too cute for words, and now I'm in the mood. ;)

Here are the few I recall having read before (all of which I recommend):
+ Check One
+ Catch-19
+ Oasis

I also don't mind fics where they get married in some alien ritual off-world, so long as they stay married.

However, I would prefer:
+ no non-Atlantis AUs
+ no kid!fics

But, if you know of any non-Atlantis AUs that you really recommend, then that's okay.

Any ideas?

Wedding Day (http://01100100.fanfib.org/fanfiction/sga/wedding.html)? I enjoyed it a lot.

New to me! Appreciate it. :)

I love Trust in Me (http://vanwaelda.livejournal.com/2166.html?style=mine).

Never read it! Thank you. :)

Weddings, Plural, and a Yak (http://trickster.org/speranza/cesper/weddingsplural.html) by cesperanza!

Wait, there is a kid in that story. But he's a cool kid. :\

I'm sure I can deal! I do enjoy kid!fics, I just wanted a focus on the McShep love, which I'm sure this does. Thanks for the rec!

Oh, good. You're welcome!

There was a previous search asking for fics in which Rodney and John get married (http://community.livejournal.com/sgagenrefinders/102574.html), and another for fics in which they already are commited or married (http://community.livejournal.com/sgagenrefinders/105633.html). Hope that helps.

Also, many complete AUs mentioned in those are totally excellent; you should definitely give 'em a go, especially if they have any Harlequin-type wibe to them. ;-)

Clearly I tagged my post as 'miscellaneous' but forgot to check out the 'miscellaneous' tag for previous requests.

I wondered why there was no marriage tag/requests I could find. I was just looking in the wrong spot.

Sorry about that! And thanks for pointing them out. :)

Well, so far those were the only two posts asking for "married" fics (I double-checked with ljseek) so the genre didn't warrant a tag. Maybe if there are some future searches with other pairings it will get a tag of its own. :-)

There's A Not-So-Modest-Proposal (http://reccea.livejournal.com/174188.html) by reccea, which features a very, very persistent Rodney who pretty much bulldozes John into marrying him. John doesn't really mind, though.

[crooked-halo8.livejournal.com]

Persistent!Rodney is one of my favorite Rodneys. Thanks a lot!

There's the Geeks and Goons Series (http://www.wraithbait.com/viewuser.php?uid=350) b< likethekoschka. They are already married, but in one story they tell in flashbacks how they got engaged...I think. It's great and definitely no kid!fics.

[crooked-halo8.livejournal.com]

Oh yes. I had that one bookmarked for future reading but didn't know they were married. Yay!

Can you tell me, aren't there separate Geek series and Goon series related to these ones? Should I read those first?

Liketheriver and Koschka both wrote gen series that happen before the geek and goons guides. The link below is to River's fics you can find a link to Koschka's on the page.
