Title: Grace and Good Aim
Rating: PG
Character: Elizabeth Weir
Summary: Now she gouges out hearts with bullets instead of words.


They understood the necessity of having every person in the city armed for the fight. So many were dead, and more were dying in the chaos of the Infirmary, that they couldn’t afford to leave any hands, calloused and rough or smooth and slender, empty.

This was war, they told themselves, this is a fight we have to win if we’re to survive. And ignoring the sickening feeling in their guts, they gave her a gun.

She took it from them, and the sight of their leader with a weapon, learning to kill, sent chills down their spines; but what terrified them was that she was good at it.


   
 
   

Since my comment exceeded the limit on comments by 96 characters, I figured I should post it over here. :)    (And Sela, I'm getting around to your prompt. I'm just watching some of that old-school SG-1 for "research purposes". )  The other ficlet-a-thon comments can be found over thataway.


Savior, SGA, Elizabeth & Caldwell, "End this." PG-13


   

Title: Building Bridges (Instead of Walls)

Challenge: Family - sga_flashfic
Character: Elizabeth Weir
Summary: And Atlantis has broken all the other rules; why should this one be any different?

She didn’t have to be told that those in power were alone.
  

   

Title: What The River Says
Rating: PG-13
Challenge: F**king freezing - sga_flashfic
Pairing: Sparky
Summary: And her heart still beats, her lungs still breathe, but she knows she might as well be dead. Maybe she is; maybe, if the ice ever thaws, she'll cease to live suspended in this godforsaken purgatory.

Author's Note: Sort of an alternate Elizabeth/nanite arc, minus the nanites. This was a fun experiment for me, trying to patchwork the story together without being too vague or too detailed. Inspired, partially, by this icon (just add more ice):

Note II: Title from William Stafford's poem Ask Me.

Title: Of Citrus, Caffeine and Clumsiness
Rating: PG-13
Pairing: Sparky
Summary: A pinch of food, a slice of conversation, and a dash of sweetness; mix thoroughly and set aside for several years until needed.   Atlantis' recipe for trust.


  

Things Change, Elizabeth & Janet, AU, PG
The warren of concrete tunnels was filled with bustling personnel in a permanent state of hurry, but the hallway where Elizabeth stood now had a silence about it that even the most determinedly cheerful personality could not disturb.

That We Dreamed Together, Elizabeth/John, ferris wheel, G
He builds her a Ferris wheel.
  

Light Up, Light Up, As If You Have A Chance, Elizabeth, burn, PG
She knew what they needed.

 

From Your Lips to God's Ears, Elizabeth & Kate, Control room defense, PG-13
In all the millions of trillions of code lines that course through Atlantis’ veins, there is a single string it has never had to use; an action it was instructed to take only in the direst of circumstances.

 

My Light-Bearing Shadow, Elizabeth/John, where you'll follow, I'll go, PG-13
You take another step through the mist, tendrils of the smoke-like substance rising around you.

 

Feathered Wings, SGA/Firefly, Elizabeth & Firefly crew, Barter, PG
“…and I’m sorry to hear of your predicament, but, if you mind my asking, what’s to keep me from leaving you on this here moon?”

  

If I posted each Elizabeth drabble for the First Annual Elizabeth Weir Drabble-a-Thon separately, I'd be spamming f-lists like there was no tomorrow (this is hope talking, here). So I'm going to collect them all in one post.

To Ride Pegasus, Elizabeth & President Henry Hayes, "I could sink or I could swim.", PG, Gen.
If there ever was a time for lying, now was that time.
  

Aah, freedom...

Well, I finished my "25 Fics of Christmas" project (though admittedly with a few a number of retroactive posts), and gave myself a day off yesterday. Unfortunately, my Muses don't know what the phrase "day off" means, so I ended up writing. xP

Title: A Thousand Unlit Candles
Rating: PG
Challenge: Darkness - sga_flashfic
Characters: Rodney McKay, Elizabeth Weir
Summary: They are the flamekeepers, the ones whose candles burn at both ends, and the ones who pass on the duty.

The next time hope started to slip out of his grasp and Elizabeth noticed, she put her hands flat on her desk and stood up with an exasperated sigh.

Title: Spark A Fire
Rating: PG-13
