Slowdance

[synekdokee.livejournal.com]

I'm looking for fics where John and Rodney slow-dance :> It doesn't have to be the center of the fic, but if it's just a passing scene, then please no mammoth-sized fics.

Everlong (http://community.livejournal.com/mcsmooch/148822.html) by tex is a short little McShep that features a slow-dance at the end.

I wrote a two-parter (10K words) "Rescuing Rodney" that has them slow dancing during an Atlantis-wide party in the second part. As I fail at the href stuff, the link is: http://helenkacan.livejournal.com/245529.html

An AU fic, where John's a dance instructor, and Rodney's taking classes -
Waltz, Tango, Foxtrot (http://out-there.livejournal.com/812616.html) by out_there.

This one has less than 20,000 words, but they don't dance until the last chapter - Scenes from an Unseen Life (http://www.wraithbait.com/viewstory.php?sid=3331) by Delilah.

Another AU fic with a short dance scene in the middle, but there's less than 13,000 words - The Amazing Quest of John Sheppard (http://www.wraithbait.com/viewstory.php?sid=8582) by ForCryinOutLoud.

So, I was reading some of the responses to sheafrotherton's Skin Hunger Challenge, and came across an interesting one that might satisfy your dance craving.... The thing of it is, is that it's not actual dancing - it's pretty metaphorical, but IMO it's perfect (the dance theme is held throughout the fic, keeps perfect time, with that little bit of reality of an almost mis-step):

"Intimacy Waltz" (http://sheafrotherdon.livejournal.com/190388.html?thread=9569716#t9569716) by ladycat777 (Somewhere in the ballpark of 1,000 words)

Heh, the timing of that fic was perfect with my post. Thanks.

[synekdokee.livejournal.com]

Oh, that's awesome. Thank you :)

[synekdokee.livejournal.com]

Awesome, thanks!

Two of those I've read before, but Scenes is new to me, I think. Thanks!

[synekdokee.livejournal.com]

Ooh, awesome! Thanks!

Not sure on this one, but...

... it's got a bit in the 2nd chapter where they are dancing together - John starts off, but Rodney gets huffy & takes over, leading a masterful Tango full of UST because John's... well, John is John. LOL! Seriously, though? The whole fic could be considered a metaphor for the Tango.
