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.
