Now, normally I don't read fanfictions all the much because...well, it's fiction stacked fiction and that annoys me, but this one was actually very well down. Scottish Rain
I just can't help but love this. I think it's one of the very few fics that actually get characters close to spot on. There wasn't excessive SLASH, which I hate, nothing ruins a good story like, "And gripping his hard cock". That my friends is the worst thing possible to EVER put in ANYTHING that isn't specifically stated as pornography.
Like I've said, I haven't read much fanfics, so I don't know the literature makeup as well as others, but I'm fairly well briefed in short story literature, and I do believe that this one is worth mentioning. I promise I wont ever mention these things again. But if you like Carson, Rodney, or Star Gate Atlantis, I suggest you check this out.

My thoughts on Carson Beckett(Paul Mcgillion), Rodney McKay(David Hewlett) and Star Gate atlantis(♥)
Ok, this is my first post, and I have no clue what I'm doing.
First of all, I'd like to draw attention to my utter confusion, and if anyone has any comments on how stupid I am, feel free to post them.
I'm a BIGBIG fan of Star Gate Atlantis and am one of the many fans who is royally pissed off about the write out of Carson Beckett. Since the write out, I have been devising a plan to meet the man who brought my favorite character to life, Paul McGillion. He is appearing at a convention in Chicago, IL, which is 3 hours away from me (I live in Michigan), and I plan on attending, but since I'm extremely short on cash, I wouldn't be able to afford an autograph, or a photo-op with him, which is extremely depressing, and with school starting the week of the convention, my mother is very hesitant on letting me go. I am now subscribed to a gigantic amount of convention websites, waiting to see if he will indeed be at any convention near me any time soon. I am looking for one that also has David Hewlett because I love him too. Their characters make up all that I love about Star Gate Atlantis. Their friendship is played out so well, that sometimes, I like to forget it's a television show. And then reality hits.
I realize this show has been on for almost 4 years now, but I've only been watching it for two, and in consequence am only on season 2, because Fox is behind or something (same thing happened on Buffy) and have not seen the actual episode where Beckett dies, "Sunday", which I am all too happy for. I watched numerous tributes on Youtube about it, and from what I can tell, I am going to be horribly depressed for a LONG time after seeing it. The last moments of Beckett are the worst, his last line, "Take care of yourself Rodney" and McKay's response, "Goodbye Carson" make me all mist-eyed just thinking about it. How could the producers kill him off in such a well thought out way? I must say, I am horribly stupefied at it, but at the same times can't be mad at the writers because they did it so tastefully.
Despite my age, I am as active as I can be in the SaveCarsonBeckett campaign, even though at the same time I can't help but be against it. I would love nothing more(besides meeting Paul) than to see Carson Beckett return to Star Gate Atlantis, but at the same time, I have to wonder, is it possible to do it tastefully rather than have it be a botched attempt and have Star Gate Atlantis ruined? I always pretend the answer is yes, but many times I have seen shows bring back a character and from then on, see the show plummet into the oblivion. I do hope to see Paul McGillion return to the set, as long as it is his desire he is going back, and not just because of all the fan support. If there was a clear statement from him that he had no desire to return to the show, I would give up my wishful thinking, and return to my mundane lifestyle of playing tennis/swimming everyday of the year, and studying to be an actor.
Now, with that being said, I wish those at MGM/The Scifi Channel/Universal/Paul McGillion/David Hewlett all the luck in the World in continuing their success.
Best Wishes,
