@cherish--these--times the 'Legacy' series was veeeeeery shippy and one of the writers said in an interview that she wanted to give them another little one, but MGM didn't let her 😱

Ooooh WIP Wednesday?

✨ for Rodney Raises Torren - sooo intrigued by the title!

WIP Wednesday!

ooh boy this is a sad but good one, i got the idea for this when watching search and rescue and rodney freaked about the complications of child birth, and i thought "well, what if...?" i'm taking your star to mean number 1 so i'm adding my favourite scene that i've written so far that's actually a bit from super late into the fic

✨ - Rodney Raises Torren

"John! Ronon! Guys, holy shit!" Rodney's voice crackled to life through John's radio, and he immediately started running towards their quarters.

"Rodney, what's wrong? Is Torren okay?"

"He's walking! All on his own, he's walking!! You need to get here right now, hurry up!" The anxiety that was rising in John was instantly replaced with pride and excitement, and he ran even faster. Ronon rounded the corner at the same time as him and they grinned at each other as they ran the rest of the way to their room.

"You're doing so good buddy, look at you go!"

John watched Torren with wide eyes, tears welling up as he watched their little boy take a few hesitant steps before finding his confidence and taking two big steps towards Rodney, who grabbed Torren right before he fell forwards.

Thank you so much for sending me this! As soon as I got it, I knew exactly what I wanted to do and I hope you enjoy it! @sparrowsarus Thank you for always enabling me. <3

"It's The Great Pumpkin, Torren John"

He’d never intended to go soft, as Rodney so often put it. He’d never been much of a kid person, but he hid it better than Rodney ever could, or at least, he tried to hide it up until Torren came along. He’d been angry with Teyla at first, angry with her for not telling him sooner, angry with her for knowingly putting herself and her unborn child in harm’s way, and if he’s honest with himself… maybe a little angry with her because he knew that their team dynamic was changing. He knew that after this, there was no going back to the way things were, how could it? He’d come around eventually, sort of. He still remembers the look on her face the first time the kid kicked and she beckoned him over, letting him put his hand on her belly, remembers the stirrings of something, maybe a slight longing for something he never would’ve let himself have. He’d come around, sure, even before she’d gone missing, but it wasn’t until him and Ronon came skidding to a halt in her cell on Michael’s Hive, Rodney kneeling down in front of her as she cradled her son so gently that John felt something shift inside of him, something hard and unwavering softening. Kanaan had come through, leading them to a dart and Teyla had tucked her child against John, trusting him with the most important piece of herself and John… John was a goner. He’d worried about how having a kid around would change their dynamic, but he never realized how it would enhance it in ways he never thought possible. Torren brought light to a place there had once been darkness hanging over them all, hope in place of the despair. Everyone felt it, even Rodney, no matter how often he protested when Teyla would plop Torren into his arms. John, who had been in love with Rodney for yearsby that point, hadn’t thought it was possible to love him anymore, but damn was he wrong. And then the Wraith came and John had no choice but to bring the fight to Earth’s very doorstep. The days, weeks, months dragged on, agonizingly slow, Teyla lost in a world of grief, drowning in her sorrow over being separated from her son, from Kanaan. Atlantis had sealed herself off from everyone, refusing to open until John himself had arrived and watching the way she came back to live beneath him was enough to convince the IOA and the US Government that she didn’t belong here, she belonged back there, her people with her. John had come around, but it wasn’t until Atlantis touched back down in New Lantea, the Gate opening to allow those they’d left behind safe passage back that John realized he’d do anything for that little boy and Teyla allowing him to be part of their lives was… well, maybe the best gift that anyone had ever given him. --- “You’re joking, right?” John turns, hands on his hips before he drops his arms to his side and shrugs. “Do I look like I’m joking, Rodney?” “You look like you’ve lost your mind. A Halloween party? Seriously?” “What are you complaining for?” John asks as he turns back to monitor Zelenka as he and Lorne manage to fasten a giant skeleton to one of the beams in the mess hall, while Ronon and Kanaan finishing adjusting the black and orange lights that he’d requisitioned from Earth. “It’s not like you’re actually helping.” “Well excuse me if some of us are too busy to worry about tablecloth décor for a ridiculous ‘holiday’, and I use that word very lightly, that no one in this galaxy knows anything about!” “I think it sounds fun,” Ronon contributes and John smirks at Rodney. “He thinks it sounds fun.” “Yes, I heard him, thank you,” Rodney says with a roll of his eyes and this time, John sidles up to Rodney, dropping a hand onto his shoulder, squeezing gently. “C’mon, Rodney,” John says and maybe he’s pouting just a little bit just because he knows that it’s the most surefire way to bring Rodney around to his line of thinking. “I’ll protect you from all the spooky, scary skeletons, I promise.” “Oh, don’t do that,” Rodney groans and John knows he has him right where he wants him. “C’mon, that’s so not fair!” And John drops

his chin onto Rodney’s shoulder, peering up at him from beneath his lashes. “Please?” “Whatever happened to Lieutenant Colonel Hard Ass?” Rodney sighs and John just shrugs, before he says simply: “It’s Torren’s first Halloween,” and if John’s ears go a little pink at the admission as to why he’s so adamant about doing this… well, that’s his own business. --- In the end, Rodney comes around. It could just be because John promises a spooktacularblow job after the party or the entire bag of candy that he’d been plied with, but he’d agreed to set up a makeshift sound system and fog machine for the festivities. There’s candy and there’s not-quite-apples, some dipped in caramel, some tossed in a barrel to float around in some water. The botany department had even found some gourd close enough to a pumpkin that there were several of those placed around the room, spooky and silly faces carved into them. John was pretty proud of his people. The highlight of the night, however, at least as far as most of the females on base were concerned, was Ronon dressed in nothing but a loin cloth, doing his best Tarzan impersonation, courtesy of John’s ridiculous movie collection and Brendan Frasier. “See?” John preens, leaning against Rodney’s shoulder as they sip some almost-cider, “this is fun, right?” “An absolute hoot,” Rodney deadpans but there’s something close to a smile on that crooked mouth, so John will take it. “You do realize that Torren is like, not even a year old yet, right? He’ll never remember this.” But John doesn’t care. John will remember, and so will Teyla and Kanaan, Ronon and Rodney, the entire base and maybe one day when he’s dead and gone, someone will tell the kid about how Uncle John threw the best damn party in two whole galaxies. Just for him.

Are you willing to elaborate on the "Teyla naming her son Torren John was tacky?" It's the only one where I don't quite see the reasoning.

sure!

(note: i love Teyla & John’s friendship. it’s apparent and given the space to develop in canon. it’s also one of my favorite ‘hetero’ friendships in sci-fi, so the Legacy books making them romantic rubs me the wrong way. it’s like making, say, Sisko & Jadzia romantic. *shudders*)

• I’m not the biggest fan of naming kids after real people, especially family / close friends of the parents. it puts undue pressure on the little guy. children should be born clean slates and shouldn’t have to live up to the reputations of their namesakes.

• we don’t know enough about Pegasus (or Athosian) naming conventions, but Torren being given two first names feels like it came out of nowhere. just a little too indulgent (on the writers’ part) for my taste.

• I know Teyla is obviously closer to Sheppard than her other teammates (this is also a sore spot for me. I would’ve welcomed more development for Rodney&Teyla and Rodney&Ronon. I’m looking at you, Farewell Scene In Sheppard’s Room During The Return Part One), but Teyla made it seem like she named her son after John because of the whole rescue mission, and that was hardly all Sheppard’s doing.

Did you know that? Torren John was not portrayed by Luttrell's actual Baby Caden, but by Annalize MacCulloch - and thus actually by a girl.

Inspired by Rodney fucking dropping him once

I also believe they would be absolutely cursed babysitters. Would probably teach him bad words and how to build nukes 

LMFAO

john and rodney are the worst baby sitters but also the best. torren can do complex math and shoot perfectly by the time he's 6 and teyla is both thankful and horrified (thankful they're teaching her son useful skills. horrified bc torren keeps making stupid earth humour jokes and she hates it)
