Another Mission Gone Wrong

[steammmpunk]

For Kink/Cliche Challenge. My prompt was Huddling for warmth/the sexual joys of hypothermia. There's no joy here, but after they get rescued by Teyla and Ronon (again), the 'omg-we're-not-dead' sex will ensue (again).

WOAH! ATMOSPHERE! Rodney's hands and the snowflakes are just amazing. Absolutely lovely work.

And also, the lighting on Rodney's right hand and the fade out on the left and the snowflakes going deep, oh man. ♥

What a fantastic comment to receive! I'm so glad you liked it, and especially that you mentioned the atmosphere and the snowflakes going deep, since I wasn't really sure it will work out. Thank you!!

There's something off about Rodney's mouth, but oh dear god, his hands, and John's nose--and face and the whole implied weight of him with the dark and the snow--LOVE. They really do feel like a spot of warmth in a cold night.

Yeah, I also think there's something off about Rodney's lower face, I suspected maybe his nose or his upper lip, but I couldn't pinpoint exactly what's wrong. I'm very glad you liked this, and especially that you thought they do feel like a spot of warmth in a cold night (prompt accomplished!). Thank you!

I'm finally getting around to checking out the Kink/Cliche challenge submissions, and just came across this. And wow...so amazing.

The only thing that's really off is Rodney's nose. Find a pic of Hewlett in profile - he has a very sharp nose, kind of like a young Bob Hope.

Thank you! I'm so glad you liked it.

I'm actually well aware of Hewlett's sharp nose (although it's possibly not as sharp at this angle), it's just my inability to make that work with his facial expression here. Thanks for letting me know what you think. :)
