rodney in denial a/o reluctant to come out

[almostnever.livejournal.com]

I'm looking for stories in which Rodney is in denial about being gay, or deeply closeted and unwilling to come out. For obvious reasons it's usually John who's in denial or closeted, but I would love to see Rodney dealing with those issues.

An example might be the Farm in Iowa fic Rodney's Story by sheafrotherdon, in which Rodney admits he was in denial until he met John.

Any pairing or gen are fine for this search. Thanks!

That's the sort of thing I was hoping to find! Thanks very much :-)

In Life After (http://sgabigbang.talkoncorners.net/?view=fic&id=49) by velocitygrass Rodney thinks he's not gay because although he had sex with a few guys he never cared about them. Except then there's these odd feelings about John... :)

In Hands Away (http://mandysbitch.livejournal.com/214061.html) by mandysbitch it's not so much that Rodney's in denial or reluctant to come out as that Rodney has Serious Issues. McShep. (warning: ouch)

Yay, I haven't read that second one and it's nice to be reminded of the first-- thanks so much!

You're Cool, I'm Fine: AU wherein they're actors. Rodney finds some slash, John is gay, and Rodney is uncomfortable. McShep, PG. http://community.livejournal.com/mcshep_match/103482.html#cutid1

Embrace Yourself (and others, too): A humorous take. They fake it for aliens and now Rodney wants John, but he's not gay or anything. McShep, R. http://deltacephei.livejournal.com/9114.html

Return to Normalcy: DADT is repealed, John wants to come out but Rodney doesn't. McShep, R. http://chelle.slashcity.org/atlantis/returntonormalcy.shtml

Fat My Dust: Rodney won't admit he's gay even when John does it first. McShep. http://community.livejournal.com/sga_flashfic/579080.html

Excellent! Some new ones, some rereads, I'm digging in now! :-)

(My Heart Goes) Bang Bang Boom by eternallycait — Rodney is homophobic and in denial but still insists on regular hot sexing with Sheppard; awesomely and on the cracky edge.

I wrote one too: Palm Springs. Something about the freedom John is displaying on leave in Palm Springs makes Rodney realllly uncomfortable. In his pants.

Thank you for both links! Your story was just the kind of thing I was looking for. Much appreciated. :-)
