REC
This is an AU in which Rodney is a composer/conductor and John is a concert violinist. Normally in fic, John and Rodney connect on a nerdy level or on a 'saving the galaxy' level, but this time they connect through music. John is really the only one who understands what Rodney is trying to convey in his concerto.

Toft writes about music and communicating through music in this fic.
TEASER
John puts the anger into it, makes what had sounded like mathematics in Rodney's head into furious, crashing downward runs that sound like punching a wall again and again, and suddenly Rodney's back in that dark, stuffy room with all the windows covered up over the three months after his breakdown, writing and writing as if he could find the right combination of notes to open the doors, make the walls fall away with music and not be afraid.
