Awesome story! (But then I look up at the author's name and say 'well, of course it is...') I love this way of John finding out when Elizabeth's birthday is; fascinating that Rodney of all people would know it but you make me believe it's possible.
So many great lines in this. I love Rodney's "Because Elizabeth wasn't" response and his thoughts about John and Elizabeth and how they're 'made for each other' with their denseness. But oh, poor Rodney; good on him for wanting Elizabeth to be happy. I really love the line "equations were infinitely preferable to emotions"; that's a very Rodney line and beautifully put.
This is a great story and I really enjoyed reading it. Thank you!
Good to finally know how he found out about her b-day :^D
HaHa, the secret is out, so thats how Sheppard found out about Elizabeth's bday! Great story!
Author's Response: Well, we never *did* find out how John found out, so.... Glad you liked the story, and thanks for the feedback! :)
