A/N: Inspired by "Trinity." Finished less than an hour after I finished watching said episode. I felt it needed a fic.

"I messed up today."

"I know."

"I destroyed almost an entire solar system."

"I know."

"Elizabeth is really mad at me."

"I know."

"John doesn't trust me anymore. Or respect me."

"I know."

"I don't know how to fix this."

"You could start by listing to the people in your department, especially Radek. He really does know what he's talking about."

"I know."

"Then you could try not to be right all the time. Sometimes you aren't you know."

"I know."

"And then, you might want to let things try and solve themselves."

Rodney raised his head and looked at his companion in bed. "Do you still love me?"

"Rodney, I will never stop loving you. You could destroy and entire solar system and I would still love you."

"Ha ha, very funny." Rodney paused. "I don't think the sun blew up."

"See, looking on the bright side!"

"Was that supposed to be a pun? Because if it was, I think that was the worst one I've ever heard."

"Now I know you've heard worse."

"You're probably right. But you do still love me, right?"

Carson sighed. "If you know one thing, know that I will love you with every breath I take. Everyone makes mistakes, its part of what being human is all about."

"But most mistakes don't blow up solar systems. Or get good people killed."

"Aye, that they don't."

Rodney laid his head back down on Carson's chest. "I love you too."

"I know, Rodney, I know."
