Summary
Rodney's Antarctica is a lot like Siberia in that it's full of scientists who work 16-hour days and bathe once a week (twice when they're feeling social), and who would slit your throat for a fresh banana. Also, you can't go for a walk without a survival kit, but that's fine - Rodney's never really been an outdoorsy person.

[Podfic] When I'm 64 by RevolutionaryJo for that_which (which)

Summary
Podfic reading of nymphaea1's When I'm 64.
Author's Summary:
The first time he woke up to John's body curling sweet and warm around him was the very next morning, John a comfortable presence along his side, their limbs in a tangle of post-coital exhaustion. He ran a hand up John’s side, already addicted to the way John pressed into his touch. He pulled himself in closer, enjoying the slide of skin on skin, and thought, maybe, it was about time he got started on the rest of his life.Bookmarked by A_Professional_Protagonist

Summary
And then the door chimed, and Woolsey came in looking mournful and anxious, and everything got derailed.
Death and life, hope and hopelessness, aren't just for the Pegasus galaxy. Eventually, inevitably, it's going to happen on Earth. John and Rodney, loss and family and what it means to be home.
Warning: Death of a minor canon character in a way integral to the plot; deals with bereavement and loss suffered by a major character. No major characters die in this story, however.

Summary
Rodney can’t stop himself from sputtering, “It is not a ‘special secret language,’ it’s Star Wars! It’s a cultural reference.”
“It’s an Earth cultural reference.” Ronon says skeptically.
“Not at all,” she says brightly, expression strained. “I have learned to ask for clarification. This…Jabba’s Palace maneuver? We have used it before.”
“Okay, that settles it,” John says, gaze locked on Rodney’s fingers as they deftly tie the last knot of the cuffs. “Once we rescue Zelenka and get back to Atlantis, McKay and I are gonna show you guys the Original Star Wars trilogy, and Star Trek, and Indiana Jones, and maybe some Batman. Then everyone will be caught up and in the loop. Sound good?”
or, John and Rodney take it upon themselves to educate Ronon and Teyla about all things Earth Nerdy. In the process, they realize they have wildly different interpretations of their shared favorite media.
