John Sheppard And His Father

Posted by gettin_yiffy

Hi all, well, I haven't really had any luck here lately, but I'm hoping I'll have better luck this time. So, I'm looking for story recommendations for two different story lines. I'm looking for stories in which John and his father reconcile after their estrangement, with the estrangement being caused by either simple misunderstandings, and/or overprotectiveness, or even from his father being genuinely terrible but recognizing the error of his ways. And I'm also looking for stories where John tries to reconcile, and it turns out that his father is such a horrible person that John was completely justified in going no contact with him, and they end up not reconciling. Thanks in advance for any help.
