Families find out

[ellie567b.livejournal.com]

I've got a craving for stories about when Earth-based family members find out about Atlantis.  Either full disclosure of the Stargate programme, or just immediate family members being told.

Can anyone help?

I love this topic too! Here are my two favourites:

This one deviates from canon a bit, but it is a McShep story in which John returns from a failed mission to Atlantis, hooks up with Rodney, and his father, brothers, and the world discover the Stargate program: http://keiramarcos.com/what-might-have-been-series-atlantis-au/

Ronon and Rodney bring John's brother Dave to Atlantis: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4138921/1/Blood_is_Thicker

Thanks - I haven't read What Might Have Been. I'm up to part 3 now, and its been very interesting so far.

What about this?

I adore this fic, but had forgotten all about it. (I recognised it within a few lines - always a good sign.)

Thanks for the rec - I've marked it for re-reading.

Thanks - this looks like a good long fic to curl up with.

You have probably already read this one but if not, Beating Hearts by ms_jvh_shuh

Dave Sheppard is brought to Atlantis by John after suffering a heart attack.

Thanks for this - I'd read part 1, but hadn't realised that she had continued this story!
