Under the Skin 1/?

Well, it's finally happened. We have a fic to post for you.

But I guess, a little bit of background might be a good thing. Gategeeks includes four of us (
sgcgategirl ,
alasse_fae ,
girrlkitty , and
theyllek ) who have the urge to write some joint fics.

For this first fic,
sgcgategirl  and
girrlkitty  decided to spend some of their free time to put together a little Carson and Rodney whumper. It turned out a bit longer than either of them anticipated.

And, this fic is also a little different than other ones. It's told completely from Carson and Rodney's viewpoints. While other characters appear throughout the fic, it's shown through the eyes of the two doctors.

We're planning on posting a scene at a time, possibly more than one scene per day-depending on how long they run. And you'll also always know who's POV you're in by the icon at the top.

So, we hope you enjoy the fic!

Under the Skin
AUTHORS: SGC Gategirl and Girrlkitty (aka Gategeeks)
STATUS: Complete
RATING: Ages 15+ (T+)
CATEGORY: Drama, angst, hurt/comfort, whump
SUMMARY: A little accident with Ancient technology, puts Beckett and McKay a little closer in touch with the Ancients than they originally anticipated, but will they survive the encounter?
SPOILERS: Takes place immediately following the events in Season three's "Sateda"
WARNINGS: Language
AUTHORS' NOTES: This started out as something to do at work when we didn't feel like working and we wanted to try something a little different. With Girrlkitty writing Carson and SGC Gategirl writing Rodney, we kept every scene in one of the two perspectives, with the other author writing the other character's dialogue-whoever was in the scene. Trust us, it worked. We had no real plot, just a vague sense of "let's write something" and this is what happened. Hope you enjoy our first venture into joint fics. Much thanks to
triciabyrne1978  for the beta. Sorry for being a pain about it.

Under the Skin
By SGC Gategirl and Girrlkitty

Doctor Rodney McKay sighed, hunched over his metal coffee mug, staring into its light-brown depths as he tried to lean on only one cheek of his ass. It was harder than it looked and took far too much of his valuable concentration.

Why couldn't they be home already? He needed to lie down in his nice comfy bed-prescription mattress and all. He couldn't really rest here on the Daedalus. The guest quarters weren't any bigger than a closet and that was just a little too close for comfort.

So, here he was in the mess, "navel gazing" into his coffee and wishing he was anywhere else but here.

Until they got back to Atlantis, there wasn't much for him to do. Sheppard was sleeping-that man could fall asleep anywhere. Teyla was meditating or something. At least that's what she said she was going to do an hour or so ago. Ronon was in the infirmary, of course, staying put due to some of Beckett's good drugs.

Shifting a little, he winced. He wished Carson would cough up the good drugs for him. And if he went anywhere near the infirmary, he wasn't sure what the sheep-shearer would do to him. He'd spit off several comments when he'd been in there earlier-right after they'd brought Ronon back. While it might not have been the most…opportune time to ask for something, he certainly didn't need the name calling.

Hearing a shuffle of feet, McKay glanced up, finding himself staring at the devil himself-and a weary-looking one at that.

"Someone finally kick you out of the infirmary, too?"
