Why This Must Be Read: Here is one of my rare SGA fics, although it's actually more of a kidfic rec, which is pretty rare for me, too... :)
Absolutely delightful kid!Rodney stream-of-consciousness as he meets this odd guy who needs to make a phone call from his house. Pitch-perfect, clever, and fun!
The man sobered and ran the tip of his tongue along his lips. "Uh. Look, this is going to sound weird, but, I need your help."
Rodney squinted at the man. He didn't trust grown-ups who asked for his help. Usually, it was an excuse to get him to do menial work like clean out the class hamster's cage. Besides, bum or not, the man could still be dangerous, right?
"What if I say no?"
The man's bushy eyebrows raised, scrunching wrinkles into his forehead. "Then, I guess I'd be pretty stuck."
Rodney frowned. The man seemed friendly. But not weird friendly. It was just that -- Rodney finally put his finger on it -- he talked to Rodney like Rodney was a grown-up too.
