What I'd love to see someone tackle is Rodney fixating on one of his allergies, like bees or citrus, as a way to repress/cope with the real trauma of losing Elizabeth or Carson. I think that would be far more interesting.
NOw, *that* I would read. I'd even read a Pegasus Project take on it - that he obsesses over Cam and the lemon instead of the possible loss of Earth to the Ori - as long as it didn't slide off into 'Cam's evil for not psychically knowing that's what it was.' Or, hmm, post-Trinity fic where Rodney's convinced they're all shunning him and actually most of them don't know anything about it, he's just blown normality out of all proportion. Again, as long as it doesn't wander off into 'they're all mean people for not realising he thinks that.'
