Vegas fic and Ronon Dex 'recovering' from being a Runner.....

[tabaqui]

Just lately i've been hankering for a story - any story! - that is set post-Vegas, in the Vegas world, where John lives and Rodney either befriends him or has him join Rodney's team. It would be awesome if Vegas!John eventually got to see Atlantis or...anything, really, but i'll take what I can get. :)


I also can't seem to find any stories - unless i'm missing a tag - that explore Ronon trying to come to terms with living in the world again after having been a Runner for so long. I mean - the man was pretty much alone for seven years, totally unable to spend more than a night at most around other humans, always fearing for his life, fighting, exhausted.... There's no way he seamlessly took to Atlantis life and just - went back to being a normal guy, you know?

So - that's what i'm trying to find. Thank you!

Self-pimpage!

I have two that might fit what you're looking for (both Gen).

Next Offramp - http://community.livejournal.com/sga_flashfic/847767.html
A Vegas tag in which John lives and Rodney returns.

An Exchange of Words - http://community.livejournal.com/sga_flashfic/544925.html%20
A tag to Runner, where John and Ronon (shirtless) talk about their scars.

Thanks! :) I've never seen either of them, cool.

Your second link isn't right, though i did find the fic.

Not all of these fit, and I'm not sure if you've already seen them, but here are two small lists of Vegas fics:

Vegas stories

[elderwitty]

Here are 8 in my memories.

Here's the stargate_vegas community

Here are a bunch of tags on Delicious.

And here are the sheps_atlantis's 5th season episode tags. You have to search though to find the Vegas ones, but it's not so bad. :>

There are duplictions on here, but better to see 'em twice than to miss any!

Thank you!

I actually stumbled on this one today looking for another story - it's a short, very tender look at Ronon and his desire to belong to / be accepted by John, to find a home in him.
