Questions Asked.

Carson Beckett prided himself on being a pretty good judge of character.

So why he kept underestimating Rodney McKay he would never know.

Generally, he considered himself to be one of the few who could look past the exterior to the man inside.

So why had he questioned Rodney's devotion to his team?

It wasn't just Rodney going after Ronon. The fact that he was willing to step into the firefight when, by his own admission, he couldn't hit the broad side of a barn door still surprised him even now.

After all this time he really should know better

Questions Answered

Carson had also thought he'd known Ronon Dex.

The man was a warrior, he didn't trust easily and he didn't like touching people.

Well, unless he was beating them up.

That was the reason the hug he'd given him had been such a shock.

But that could easily be blamed on adrenaline and the emotional turmoil that came with being back in the remains of Sateda.

What wasn't quite so easy to reason away was the kiss he'd hauled Rodney into straight after.

Especially considering how eagerly Rodney was kissing him back.

But, then again, it did explain a lot.
