Why This Must Be Read: Canon doesn't really deal with the emotional fallout of John's grand, self-sacrificing gestures. Cue one esteefee to the rescue. This is part 1 of a 3 part series, and you should read them all, but this particular one is just fantastic.
Sheppard had barely had a chance to look up and start to smile before his eyes widened and he went flying in a very satisfactory fashion to land sprawled on his ass with Rodney's furious, "You son of a bitch!" still ringing in the sudden silence.
Then there was a small bubble of people babbling, and Teyla shoving her forearm against Rodney's neck to stop him from charging forward to follow Sheppard down and maybe, who knows? Get in a couple of wild swings before Sheppard recovered enough to start hitting back. Which was a good thing, really, because even with the element of surprise and righteous fury on his side, Rodney was pretty sure Sheppard would have pummeled him into a sticky, bleeding mess, and he'd really just come by for some artificially-flavored blueberry pancakes and not to go, as Sheppard called it later, "three-eyed alien banana bugshit."
