I do intend to finish it, hopefully even in a way that explains how the Atlanteans came to embrace their inner kink (in my head this somehow evolved from fanon as we know it). It´s probably gonna happen when I get back from Peru, cuz... writing hard core porn in an internet cafe? Er... no.
I totally agree with your squick. I can read almost anything, but BDSM makes me uncomfortable when it crosses into the day to day life of people like Rodney. He might manage to embarress himself an awful lot, but I do think he really needs the reasurance that his people respect him. And he does strike me as a private person when it comes to relationships. (I am of course basing this on the idea that that Rodney/Katie awkwardness was caused by both of them underplaying it in front of the subordinates, rather then... well, bad writing).
