Child-Magnet Mckay

[schizojuc.livejournal.com]

Hello. I have an urge to read stories where a child or many children are drawn to Rodney or prefer him to another person or only trust Rodney for some reason. However I am not looking for stories where Rodney adopts a child.

I prefer McShep stories although gen will also do.

Thank you.

You might enjoy this (gen, but lots of Sheppard & McKay snark)

"There is one rule of story time," Rodney says. "We do not talk about story time.

This is one of my favorite stories--it's pretty long, but Rodney interacting with kids is one of the highlights. It's also gen, but the John/Rodney friendship is extremely strong and at the center of the fic.

Not the original poster, but thank you for reminding me of this story! Also, where is that fantastic icon from?

[folavril.livejournal.com]

Welcome!

The icon is something I made myself - there's a video clip of the guys & Rachael & I forget whom else (maybe Jewel S) accepting an award last year (People's Choice or something, it was on the MGM site iirc) & the Flan starts feeling DH up, so of course I had to cap it! (the original is in color, though unfortunately its not the best resolution - I'll take a hunt tonight, I may be able to find the clip so you can see the whole thing, its pretty funny).

That would be fantastic, thanks!

Stuck (http://kolyaaa.bravehost.com/stuck/stuck01.htm) has a very short scene right at the beginning.

<a href="http://www.wraithbait.com/viewstory.php?sid=448&i=1>Woebies of Woe</a> has a very reluctant Rodney getting saddled with a kid on Elizabeth's orders.

The patting on the knee is about 2:30 in, with Joe talking about how DHew wants to be directed by him.

I love this one: Five Times Rodney McKay Babysat the Athosians (http://cat-77.livejournal.com/214195.html)

Thank you so much for pointing me toward Woebies of Woe!

I laughed so hard!

What a great story.

Thank you for the link! Made me want to squish Rodney!

[schizojuc.livejournal.com]

I love the way the kids' interactions with Rodney was written in this one. Thank you.

[schizojuc.livejournal.com]

Just visualizing baby Rodney mouthing off like adult Rodney cracked me up! Thank you!

[schizojuc.livejournal.com]

Loved it! Thank you!

I love reading about Rodney dealing with children...


AU (McShep Pairing):

"Kindergarten Rodney (http://honey-babes.livejournal.com/161555.html)" by honey_babes
"The Pegasus School for the Gifted (http://hackthis.livejournal.com/416639.html)" by hackthis
"Little Wonders (http://www.wraithbait.com/viewstory.php?sid=11789)" by WolfenMoondaughter (I haven't read this one yet, but it may actually end up skating straight through your 'no adoption' zone. The first chapter's pretty funny & safe on that last point, at least.)




For this genre request, are you morally opposed to Rodney having to take care of de-aged teammates? If not, I have several other suggestions.

Finally got round to reading these. Thank you! Especially for the last one which I have never read before. =)
