Seriously. He deserves hugs and as much candy as he can eat. I also want to write him a happy ending, except this is all I have of this story. This is the one scene that I can see clearly -- John holding and protecting and knowing that what's safest for Rodney is to be away and also understanding why that would just *kill* Rodney emotionally -- and now that I read through it, it seems to be a fairly complete story.
(Well, apart from the mental image of Rodney yelling at Caldwell, and Caldwell saying it's proof that Rodney hadn't remained an emotional adult and Rodney saying that if he wasn't "emotionally an adult" he'd act like he did as a kid, and do this! And then give Caldwell a solid, vicious kick.)
So, yeah. Time to send it off to a beta, I guess. but I should probably wait until after Christmas because I'm guessing everyone's busy.
