HOWEVER,

I think it's important (and many will agree) to make one thing very clear:

This is a very attractive man:

Yes, he's very pretty. Was then, is now, likely will be until he kicks it. The character he portrayed was complicated, infuriating, dorky and very angsty. We love John Sheppard.

BUT

This guy is the main event:

This page from one of my history books looks like a lesbian utopia.

Fandom: Stargate Atlantis Characters/Pairings: John Sheppard/Rodney McKay, Ronon Dex, Elizabeth Weir, Carson Beckett, Miller, et al Rating: Gen Length: 00:03:45 Content Notes: no AO3-type warnings. Rapid cuts, flashing lights esp. at 3 min mark, canon-typical violence. Creator Links: randommindtime on YouTube, and on AO3. The song's by Tom Odell. Themes: Just like canon, Action/adventure, Families of choice, Friendship, Teams

Summary: "I guess that's love. I can't pretend. I can't pretend."

Reccer's Notes: This is one of the best of randommindtimes' fanvids, and it's about the intense connection between John and Rodney in canon, through all their dramas, losses and vicissitudes. It doesn't matter if they're very close friends, or lovers - the intensity's the same and both are natural extensions of canon. It's a powerful distillation of the show - one of my favourites, and very much worth watching.
