*SQUEES AND LITERALLY BOUNCES IN HER CHAIR, CLAPPING HER HANDS*
...(AND ABUSING THE CAPSLOCK).
But, really, OH MY GOD! That is perfect and that is so gorgeous and I'm all a-squee.
First of all, the icon cracks me up and makexs me love it. The drawn eyebrows and the scowl (that's fairly close to an overgrown pout) and the expression in those blue eyes that reads, "You are so stupid and suck so much." I love it.
Secondly, the cover? Is *perfect*. I mean, absolutely, utterly *perfect*. John's room and that's the exact lighting, that semi-darkness where it's easier to admit your fears, and the straight, tense lines of Rodney's little shoulders, and the defeated/casual hunch of John's back, and the way that they're sitting so very close, and John's looking in the direction of the picture beside his bed, and , oh, PERFECT!!!
*squees a little more*
(though i keep imagining rodney coming back at 17 and engaging in big gay love with sheppard, which is just wrong!wrong!wrong! *g*)
You're not the only one. Rodney would come back and John would be in his early *forties*. There would be a twenty-five year age difference, and my mind keeps going, "Oh, it wouldn't be that bad. I mean, Rodney has lived all those years. He'd have some memories of it all. Even if he wasn't old enough to *drink*."
And then I back away from my brain and try to focus on one of the other wips.
