Summary: Cut off from Earth on New Atlantis, John & Rodney stumble across a new race. Dragons! First story in the Atlantis Dragon Series. Set after the Season Three finale - this is my AU version of Season Four. Inspired by Naomi Novik's, Temeraire.
Reccer's Notes: This is just sweet and charming; despite its length, it feels like a vignette. The story doesn't go anywhere or do anything... but who can resist a sapient, talking, baby dragon? Certainly not John, who is immediately drawn to the egg he and Rodney were led to by its dying mother. Rodney snarks while John acts like a broody hen until it hatches, and supports John as he stays with the dragon until he grows large enough to make the flight to Atlantis. Totally Atlantis, not a Pern crossover.
