John knows stargate personnel pre-atlantis

[fossore.livejournal.com]

I'm looking for stories that where John learns about the stargate program in the same or similar ways to canon, but has (preferably pre-antarctica) history with McKay or one of the other characters. Bonus points if that history makes the character reveal a different side of themself from what everyone knows about them, but that's extra.
