Aww, this was really sweet. And I must agree with John, I wouldn't return Rodney's 'I'm with Genius' t-shirt either. =D

Poor Kolya though. *sniffles*

nice branch-off. I wouldn't call it AU just cuz it's preslash though. i mean, have you watched the show? preslash isn't slash after all.
I know it's been years, but perhaps you'll continue a fic in this vein, or even just more of the geek series? not that your supernatural fics aren't good too.
cheers.

Beautiful.

This was my first McShep and my first SGA fic.

A hundred fics and about twenty fanvids later, and I am hooked. Thank you for introducing me to this fandom in such a beautiful way.

This fic was everything.

Thank you.

Truly a masterpiece. Congratulations on your Award, this is a wonderful fic! Your Sheppard is unbelievably real, if there is a such a thing! Smurf ** hehe! He stole his t-shirt - fantastic! Great twist, terrific piece. Thanks.

That was great, so absolutely fabulous. Just enough to keep me sated. The situation seemed so right and real. I can see it happening on the show just like that. I bow at you worthy feet and ask that you accept this humble offering of praise.

I'm not even half-way through this fic, and I absolutely love it so much that I had to leave a review RIGHT NOW!

Flame retardant white marshmallow foam, newborn Rodney expounding on the way the doctor's delivery procedure was faulty...and the line that initiated this review:
'"Curse the primoridal ooze that spawned you and your mutant Chia-head."'

This is just so great.

:)

I can't wait to read the next in your "Geek" series. Sigh...I might be sitting in front of this computer for the next couple of hours at the rate I'm going!

Thanks for this!

I also have to add myself to the list of people who laughed until they cried over this line: "it looked like the Stay-Puft Marshmallow man had gotten into the Ipecac and bazooka barfed a few hundred gallons" Bazooka barfed is just way more funny than "projectile vomiting." And, of course, I also loved the "mutant Chia-head".

The relationship between John and Rodney in this piece is so well done. The part about it making things harder for Rodney if he survived, was just heartbreaking.

I've read all the stories in this series posted here and loved them all ;) (Isn't there another story published in a fanzine?)

I especially like the progression of the relationship. It's normal to want to touch those you're close to.

Whoa. I've been reading and loving all your Geeks and Goons stories but this one in particular really got to me. I'm almost physically ill at the thought of Sheppard being, well, human enough to do that. It's amazingly well-written; kudos to you for not shying away from such a controversial idea.

I must admit I'm not so happy with the pre-slash, as you call it. I much prefer McKay and Sheppard as you've previously portrayed them: friends, good friends, best friends even, but nothing more. I'm not going to stop reading you unless it goes too much farther but I just thought you ought to know.

Another wonderful piece from you. Thank you!

A sweet story with a kick to the end. To protect those we love, we must sometimes be willing to pay a cost to the soul.

Oh my gosh, this was a great fic! It was so hilarious that I was laughing so hard I was crying, and some times I actually had to get up and go compose myself so I could continue reading. But, it also had real, compassionate moments, too. I don't even like slash, but for some reason, this worked for me. Great job, and I'm now going to check out some of your other work.

ooh, a change in direction? interesting, though the end was disturbing with kolya and i'm not sure how that works but very good.

Hi,
I read your SGA stories after seeing them recced at Diana's Multifandom Ship Recs .

Wow. What a find. *g* Well written, insightful, witty dialogue, solid plots, and with spot on characterizations, especially Rodney. I hope you continue to share your writing. These are among the best SGA stories I've read.

BTW Even though I prefer slash, I thought the Gen stories were great. The relationship development in those stories provided a strong foundation for Super Geek. *bg*

Appreciatively,

I LOVED IT! I LOVED IT! Did I mentioned I loved
it? Your stories have been my absolute favorites,
and this one... As the others to review said, it was hilarous(sp? excuse my spelling all through
this),it was intelligent,heartbreaking and the
characters were (as always)PERFECT! My fear now
is that, since you lead from one story to the next, will we have to wait til July for more?
Though there are a few more episodes to the
season (and hopefully more reason for you to write) there won't be any ...relationship development til they're "safe" (if indeed you
are going to go from pre to slash- even if you
don't I'm sure their relationship will be just
as perfect and as believeable). PLEASE keep writing MANY MANY more stories! Your writing is
so good I may have to read your Harry Potter (which will probably get me to watch the movies and/or read the books (which I've avoided up til
now-just what I need, another fandom).
