Smart, perhaps? Did they fit you into that box too, along with all the others.

Did you take that label pridefully, the idea that you were good at everything?

You're still smart, aren't you?

As you aged, it became less a sticker of pride and more a burden.

"If you're so good at chemistry, why aren't you good at (completly unrelated subject)?"

'Smart' became a burden, didn't it?

oh, and how's that autism diagnosis working for you?

Since when did this become a place to recite slam poetry?? I didn’t request these kinds of comments or assumptions on how I feel about my own intelligence!!! I’m perfectly fine, I have been fine, I will be fine.

And I don’t have any diagnoses!

User has cut transmission, thank you for your patience and understanding.

Firsts answers!

Hi anon and thank you! (Sorry it took a minute to respond 😅) I'm interpreting this as being dailogue! I love me some good dailogue. So let's see...

No less cocky, No Less Neurotic is my Vegas!Rodney/Rodney fic. There are actually a lot of dailogue moments from it I quite like! Rodney does not really like McKay and they get into a couple little spats which I find very cute.

"We are the smartest men in this galaxy. If there was a way to make it go faster we would have seen it."

"Oh, so there's a 'we' now?" Rodney snipped rounding on the other man. He was standing just inside the doorway to the lab. Posture straight and with that fucking air of superiority, hands casually in his front pockets. What was with that? Some kind of tick or something? "I'm amazed you could take five seconds to actually acknowledge my existence in this universe," he continued, crossing his arms in an attempt to stand his ground.

Honeypot AU? Oh boy, there are soooo many moments to choose from. Let's go with something more light hearted! At one point, John has to be fitted for a suit and is stuck at the shop with Cadman and Teyla. I found the scene very fun to write. The whole thing is meant to be a touch of comic relief for the fic which I struggle with at times but do think it flows nicely.

“I’m not arm candy!” John protested.

“Oh please! You're kidding me, right? Why do you think he’s taking you?”

“Becasue,” John started to respond as he opened the curtain and returned to the small fitting stage. “You can’t go, and he needs an assistant in case anything comes up.”

Laura and Teyla exchanged looks but said nothing.

“What?” John demanded, giving them both a speculative look.

I JUST HEARD IT (I've lost track of time & I thought today was around the 12th??? Someone told me they released the teaser and it completely came outta nowhere and I'm reeling?)
