Accidentally In Love with dating fics...

[roxy-palace.livejournal.com]

I have just been re-reading the gorgeous 'Accidentally In Love' by Tiger Lady 
( http://www.shetiger.com/fanfic/stargate/accidentally.html)  

Followed by reading the lovely 'Things to Do In Denver When You're Dead' by Speranza
(http://www.trickster.org/speranza/cesper/Denver.html)

And now I really want to find more stories where Rodney and John get together slowly, with nice dates and maybe a bit of emotional misdirection and a little angst.  You know, the slow build, chocolate boxes and roses, 'will they or wont they?'.  As opposed to the ever popular 'Oh?  You like me?!  Quick, trousers off and get on the bed!" (not that I'm knocking 'trousers off and get on the bed!', but you know, variety is nice too. :)) 

Longing and yearning are a definite plus.

Total AU's are deffinitely welcome.

Any rating.

In other words, bring the schmoop.

If AUs are OK, you might also like The Spare (http://mediafans.org/rachael/sga/atlantis_thespare.html) by wickedwords, in which prince-ly!John and scientist!Rodney have an arranged marriage to bring peace to their two countries, and the consumation takes some time to accomplish (on John's part, who's pretty willing for a trophy husband). It's nice and romantic, and an excellent read.

The other is a regency Harlequin-ish AU, A Dangerous Desire or McKay Makes a Match (http://janne-d.livejournal.com/32547.html) by janne_d, in which John saves Rodney from being kindnapped - wait, no, Rodney saves himself, punching John out in the process... They flirt in very regency fashion, and there's falling in love, angst and the like, plus a very nice and satisfying Harlequin-style happy end.

Also, a contemporary AU, in which stuff happens, and happens, before they jump into bed/being together for good: Push/Pull (http://jane-elliot.livejournal.com/29386.html) by jane_elliot. Summary: homeless!John AU

Wait, you want more? Fine. Rodney was having the worst day of his life even before he accidentally ran over a mysterious homeless man with his car. Now he finds himself without a job, with a new roomate, and with one burning question: Who is the enigmatic John Sheppard?
