SGA: Always Crashing in the Same Car by WonkyElk
Aug. 15th, 2025 02:01 pmmific in fancakeFandom: Stargate Atlantis
Characters/Pairings: John Sheppard/Rodney McKay, Patrick Sheppard, Ronon Dex, Teyla Emmagan
Rating: M
Length: 11,758
Content Notes: no AO3 warnings apply
Creator Links: WonkyElk on AO3, cookiemom6067 on AO3, cookiemom6067 on the Audiofic Archive
Themes: Marriage of Convenience, First time, Hurt/comfort, Complete AU
Summary: “Damn it, John, you’re thirty-six, and you’ve never had a stable relationship.”
Patrick Sheppard adjusted his tie and gave him that familiar look, that 'I’m trying to love you, son, but you just keep on disappointing me’ expression, which had started somewhere around John’s eleventh or twelfth birthday - just as soon as he got an ounce of healthy rebellion - and had rarely left his dad’s face since.
Reccer's Notes: Ronon plays matchmaker in this marriage of convenience, recommending Rodney to John, who's undertaking the marriage mostly to piss off his father, but also to strengthen his place in the company hierarchy. Rodney seems the perfect spouse to annoy Patrick Sheppard, being brash, and, most importantly, male. But then it turns out they get on remarkably well, and eventually Rodney encourages John to be himself, not continue to try to please his (impossible to please) father. There's angst, character development, romance, and some action/adventure, until they work it out. An excellent read!

Smallville: Red Tape by Lenore

lenore
Theme: Marriage of convenience
Summary: Clark’s illegal, and Lex makes him a green card proposal.
Reccer's Notes: Here with another Smallville rec! This time, it's Clark who, ostensibly, needs to get married because he has no social security number, no legit adoption papers. Lex is the mayor of Metropolis in this story, and Clark is a reporter at the Daily Planet. Lex knows the secret of Clark's/Superman's identity, and he doesn't want to be the bad guy who has to deport a beloved superhero. Solution: marriage!
What I love about this story is how absolutely befuddled Clark is by Lex's proposal and the actuality of the marriage. It's SO CLARK. Lenore touches on another of my favorite Clark traits, which is his loneliness and his inability to sustain a relationship because of his secret. I don't recall the story explicitly stating Clark's age, but I think he's in his late twenties, maybe almost thirty. Those added years give more emotional weight to the (of course) eventual romance and falling in love.
Lois and the Kents feature in the narrative, and it never fails to delight me when Lois makes coffee or Mr. Kent talks farming with Lex.
Fanwork Links: Red Tape. This story was originally posted on LJ/Smallville Slash Archive and later moved to AO3, which resulted in a duplication. I was told by the author that this is the correct version.

The Ultimates #14
Aug. 14th, 2025 07:53 amlaughing_tree in scans_daily
If you’re picking up the Ultimates, for better or worse, you’re getting a Deniz Camp book. You know, it reads like a Deniz Camp book, hopefully different from the other ones that I’ve done because I’m trying not to repeat myself, but still, it’s a representation of me and my interests. I think, at least for me as a reader, that’s what I was always looking for, you know? Like when I was a kid and I realized that the comics I liked weren’t Justice League comics but were Grant Morrison comics. That was kind of like the first big revelation for me about how to read comics was, “Actually it’s not that JLA comics are better than the other comics. It’s that these specific ones written by this specific person are better,” you know, and hopefully that’s part of what the excitement of the Ultimate Universe is. [...] I think it’s totally normal when you’re younger to identify with the characters, or the universe or whatever. That’s just the normal life cycle of things. As you get deeper into something, only then, whatever it is, whether it’s novels or TV or whatever, then you start to realize you start to realize a little bit more about how they’re made and what you’re responding to is the work of people, not this amorphous concept or character. -- Deniz Camp
