Rating: PG-13
Challenge: Kidfic - [info]sga_flashfic 
Character: Teyla Emmagen
Warnings: Blood, death
Summary: Even in the womb, her people know this sound.

Author's Note: ...well, this did not turn out like I was thinking it would, but since it was written for this challenge and still has to do with "kids"...


There is a peace in this, a simple acceptance of the reality that lies around her without protest or illusion of control.

So I was just about to make a post complaining about the lack of inspiration and Muse!ness going on right now, despite the thirty-item long list of "To Be Written", when (of course) an idea hit me.

I'm not a proponent of McKay/Sheppard, but read into whatever you want.

While cleaning out my hard drive and going through scattered memory sticks, I came across a flash drive that has a good number of fics saved on it. Only a handful are actually finished, and most of those have already been posted, but there are a few that haven't seen the light of a LJ post. For my lack of anything coherent to say after watching Continuum, I offer this typically "me" piece.

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.

Title: Why We Will Survive Today (And Tomorrow, and Tomorrow)
Rating: PG-13
Challenge: "First Strike", 3x20 - [info]notjustclosets
Pairing: Sparky
Character: Colonel Ellis
Summary: He knows a good thing, a miracle when he sees one.

Author's Note: So. Watched First Strike for the first time yesterday. Procrastinator? Yes. Thank you.

Note II: My first reaction upon learning that I had First Strike as an episode? Dear Deity-of-Choice, the hardcore smut fans are going to flay me alive for this! Still, I stupidly stuck to my guns and wrote my answer for the challenge. With about ten minutes to spare until midnight, to boot. Say what you will, but I don't regret a thing. (Okay, wait, maybe I do. Damn. Oh well.)

Note III: "Sparkily" is the new nickname for this 'shipping. Gotta love typos. ;)




Colonel Ellis was a military man, sculpted head to toe exactly as the regulations dictated. )

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.

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
