SGA: Fieldwork by Rheanna (and Homework by busaikko)
Mar. 10th, 2026 12:42 amFandom: Stargate Atlantis
Characters/Pairings: Ronon Dex/John Sheppard, Rodney McKay, Dave Sheppard
Rating: Teen, Gen
Length: 3158 (Homework is 963)
Content Notes: no AO3 warnings apply
Creator Links: Rheanna on AO3, busaikko on AO3, susan_voight on AO3
Themes: Siblings, Friendship, Going home, Established relationship
Summaries:
Ronon starts his e-mail correspondence with Sheppard's brother more or less by mistake.
For some reason, after his father's funeral Dave Sheppard keeps getting e-mail from Ronon Dex.
Reccer's Notes: This is a remix of Homework by busaikko, and they can be read in any order - this is basically a rec for both fics, Fieldwork being from Ronon's POV, and Homework, which is just as good, from Dave's POV. Ronon's in a relationship with John and as part of learning English he starts emailing John's estranged brother, Dave. Rodney then gets involved as Ronon goes to him for help. The characterisations of Ronon, John, and Rodney here are spot on, and it's both funny and moving - a wonderful set of stories.

I'm playing The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword (HD) on Switch 2, docked, with a Pro Controller. Last night, I ran into an "I must be doing this wrong" frustration that turned out to be a known glitch, apparently affecting most folks playing without the motion controls for which the game was originally designed on the Wii. The most accessible advice on the internet is to "just" switch over to joy cons, turn on motion controls, calibrate, complete the puzzle, switch back to the pro controller, and switch back to button controls. ;-) Happily, I found an alternative tip -- to "flick" the right stick in a certain way -- and it worked!
I'd like to share, in case this helps anyone else: ( Spoilers for which puzzle has this issue, the glitch, and how to proceed without motion controls )
The possibility that I'm doing something wrong in a game is always first and foremost. :-) In this case, though, it's an actual known imperfection in an otherwise very impressive port.
