ask;jfa; I AM SO GLAD YOU THINK SO.

You hit on pretty much all of the reasons this show, and this pairing appeal to me...When you can look to them and see all the tiny and large ways they depends on each other. When you can't imagine either character without the other.

That was my goal - to try and explain why these two are so good together, why they work, with examples to support my feelings. I'm really glad I expressed what about them appealed to you! John and Rodney's lives are so intertwined, both professionally and personally; I imagine that kind of thing leads to a closeness that's undeniable, giving people a sense that they're a "pair". It's not often that it's just John or Rodney, it's usually "John and Rodney".

(in fact, if you notice the more 'perfect' shows rarely have big fan fic fandoms because there is nothing left for the fans to imagine)

You know, this never would have made sense to me if I hadn't seen Farscape or Castle (despite the drawn out will-they-or-won't-they of Castle). But those two shows handled the relationships between their respective leads so well that there's not much to be said in fic. There's not much to explore, because the show itself is so satisfying.

Haha, I'm tempted to post it to [livejournal.com profile] mckay_sheppard, but I'm so shy.

nihilvanum's words:

my dear
the problem is that
you love him so much
you would allow him
to drag you all the way to hell
if it meant you could
hold his hand
on the way down
