To start off the Fest, we are having a prompt roundup! Prompt suggestions should be left in a comment to this post.
What you consider a prompt is up to you.
Prompts may be anything including, but not limited to, pictures, poetry, or song. You may offer as many prompts for the fest as your romantic heart desires. We'll continue with our shameless begging for prompts until midnight (wherever you are) Jan 8th.
You may leave more than one prompt but please be clear and separate multiple prompts by using numbers or separate lines.
Remember too, since this is not an exchange there is no certainty that your prompt will be chosen but any offered inspiration is greatly appreciated.

Rodney is a renowned chef/baker. John is the irritating customer who tells him his food is "ok".

Date: 2016-01-07 01:35 am (UTC)When you (unwittingly) relieve a genius of all his distractions, what happens?
This ^^ is a great question.
And... not to hijack your prompt, but it makes me wonder if, at the happy resolution, Rodney might say to John that they need to tone down their "closeness" while he finishes his latest genius project. And John goes "Wut??? (but I am beautiful and charming and I forgive you and all). And Rodney goes, "Sorry, Working, Busy now, cya". I'm smiling just thinking about it.

Date: 2016-01-07 04:39 am (UTC)Good idea, but I probably would not read that story. I wanted to read the story where Elizabeth romances (in a professional way) Rodney back from his total commitment to research and projects, to resuming all the crap that comes from being head of multiple science departments, and going off world all the time.. How to convince an unbound genius to take back the bounds? McKay and Sheppard? I'm a Mcshep so for them, there is no good guy, there is no bad guy, there is them and they fight it out.
I think my point was that watching the episodes, how the hell did McKay handle it all? Head of a department that was over half the population of Atlantis, going off world ( don't get me started). What if his punishment ,for the first time , unbound his abilities?

Date: 2016-01-07 11:18 am (UTC)I didn't at all mean that Rodney would break up with John. I sort of pictured that Rodney, working on pure science, might be enraptured by some project or idea -- and how that might be distracting and joyous.
I really love your idea, and I'm sorry if I sounded as if I didn't. I'm not a writer, so sometimes my comments aren't very graceful.
What if his punishment ,for the first time , unbound his abilities?
I love this idea. ^^ I hope someone writes it.

Date: 2016-01-07 09:49 pm (UTC)Time Dilation Fluff
Date: 2016-01-08 12:29 pm (UTC)OR Maybe Rodney discovers it and sets the time dilation field up on a beach on the mainland, and they use it as a ‘vacation spot’ for everyone on Atlantis. People can have a week vacation without disrupting any schedules or daily functioning duties on Atlantis.
(So, basically I just want some fun PWP.)

Date: 2016-01-08 08:11 pm (UTC)Re: Time Dilation Fluff
Date: 2016-01-08 11:09 pm (UTC)Think of what Rodney and John could get up to if they had hours of uninterrupted time & it passes as minutes to Atlantis. Shep could go into Rodney's room have hours and hours of sex & leave his room with only minutes passing by. This just makes sense. It practically writes itself.

Date: 2016-01-09 05:10 am (UTC)Oh, I'm sure it's because it's as close as they'll ever get to actually pushing him out of a plane. :D
Re: More prompts
Date: 2016-01-09 05:17 am (UTC)Oh, thanks so much for that. Not just an earworm, but also a boggling mental exercise, trying to recast Monsters Inc with SGA chars.

Date: 2016-01-09 06:25 am (UTC)Rodney McKay spots the huge meteor heading directly for Earth, not as part of his job, but as part of his star-gazing hobby. Luckily, he has some ideas on how they can stop it.
John Sheppard is the astronaut who'll be piloting the shuttle carrying Rodney and his payload up to the meteor.
#######
After Rodney gets the gene, he starts waking up knowing things about Atlantis that he couldn't possibly know...unless she's telling him.
At first, he assumes he's dreaming - new galaxy, Ancient city, aliens out to kill him, he's actually surprised his nights aren't wall-to-wall nightmares - but then he absently uses some of his dream knowledge while under pressure, and it is pivotal in him saving the day.
John eventually confesses that, yeah, he's been getting the occasional update too, since the first day, some odder than others.
They start comparing notes, and notice the city has a plan...

John and Rodney work here (http://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/about-the-scp-foundation).
(sorry not sorry. I stumbled into a link to that wiki via a Hannigram fic and lost a few hours reading about artifact after artifact. The 'random SCP' button is evil and addictive.)
#######
How To Tame Your Dragon(ish) AU
John knows that if he could just get onto - and stay on - the back of one of those beasts, he could fly! He has an idea of how to make it happen, but needs help.
Rodney is the crazy/cranky genius blacksmith that all the adults avoid interacting with whenever possible and all the children take their broken toys to.
