brainofck844,739 Ways to Eat a Hamburger is an SGA team roadtrip from Colorado to DC, in part via I-40 through Asheville and the research triangle area.
You can see why I must rec it. MiniBio for those who don't see the logic: Native of Charlotte. Former camp counselor in Asheville. UNC grad. Currently resident of DC 'burbs. I have probably driven the I-40 route they take 100 times, and missed the I-85 exit at least twice.
Includes Rodney being teased by a table full of Carolina co-eds. And Sheppard's memories of Asheville are mine, with less emphasis on the pretty girls.
Great Teyla and Ronon fish-out-of-water - completely in character.
Rodney's in character, though I don't totally buy him in this. I suspect he would have found a way to recharge the laptop batteries. And I had no idea that Rodney was supposed to be such a coffee addict. In this story, his fictional consumption rivals Daniel's. Possibly surpasses. Or maybe Daniel just has a bigger bladder.
And though I'm not the Ronon worshipper some people in this fandom can be, I have to agree with the big-haired belle in Memphis - he'll do.
Ironically, I cannot stand Waffle House.
Go. Read. Enjoy.

844,739 is more fall-down-funny and less schmoopy, but I really liked them both. The falling face-forward into the grits was just... I lost it there!
Re: Rodney and coffee, have you seen the Rodney vid Stress? One of the best vids ever made in any fandom, I think. You see some of the coffee drinking, and he's obviously caffeinated to a toxic level the rest of the time. ;-)
