sgastoryfinders: Someone-Sam? Lorne? observes that John had the right to tease Rodney-he'd earned the right, and Rodney knew John would never endanger him. But in casually tossing that right to Cam, John made a big mistake which he seemed unaware of, and John is duly punished (physically, by Ronon) and then all is well. Or at least back to normal.
Okay, if Rodney is so insecure that he truly believes that Cam, an officer in the air force, respected by a lot of people who know what they're talking about, who's never done anything to make Rodney think otherwise, would actually hurt him, this is not John's problem, it is a sign that Rodney needs some serious therapy.
And Ronon beating John until he learns his lesson is a sign that he needs some serious therapy as well.
I'm sorry, I know most Rodney fans are lovely, rational people, but some of them have some really screwy ideas about what constitutes mental good health and an okay way to be with your friends.
Okay, in fairness, I suppose it's possible that the fic was written to show that this is extremely unhealthy and that someone needs to be protecting John from his clearly disturbed friends, but from the tone of the request, I kind of doubt it.

Oh God, if John had done it to Rodney - it would have been worse than Trinity. If Rodney had done it to Teyla... well, I imagine fandom's reaction overall would have been a lot stronger than it was, but I do wonder how the crazy Rodney fans would have taken it. I mean, particularly considering Teyla's never done anything they could even twist to make it seem like she picks on Rodney.
