Challenge #340 - Sacrifice
Title: Trade Negotiations
Author:
georgiesmith
Prompt: #340, sacrifice
Fandom: Stargate Atlantis
Pairing: John Sheppard/Rodney McKay
Rating: PG-13
Word Count: 100
“Rodney,” John said quietly trying not to attract the attention of the village elder only a few feet away, “every so often we’re all forced to do something we don’t want to do.”
“No. You’re asking too much."
“C’mon, do it for the team.”
“No.”
“For Atlantis.”
“No.”
John leaned in closer, to whisper in Rodney’s ear. “Do it for me and I promise you I will show you my appreciation when we get home.”
Sighing heavily, Rodney pulled the Cadbury Fruit and Nut bar from his pocket, handing it to John wordlessly.
That night John kept his promise. Twice.

You're comment in your 'Artistic' post about 'most of you not being interested' was a devious ploy (it worked of course) because here I am, reading a McShep drabble!
But then John's in it so.......*grins*
I'm developing an appreciation for the humble drabble as I've just started writing them myself.
This is lovely and so them :)

I love drabbles, I've just gotten out of the habit of writing them. This was fun. I'm glad you liked it.

It's a good technique you should keep using it
Sure did, and it reminds me of the ep where J&R are escorting the young queen to the ruins and she eats John's power bar and Rodney gets the blame. "Harmony" season 4
