Stargate: Atlantis stories

First Contact
I got to wondering how Rodney was recruited to the Atlantis project, and this was the result.
Elizabeth knows how to get what she wants (~2,000 words)

Smitefulness
Sheer crack. Sometimes I despair in my hope of one day becoming a serious writer.
Don't you just wish you had one of these? (~1,300)

Making Sure
Episode tag for "Tabula Rasa".
Sheppard's not the only one still recovering from the events of the previous day. (~1180)

The Sounds of Silence
Comfort-fic, originally posted in comments to sheafrotherdon
It's been a long day (~500)

Exchanges
For the sga_flashfic "Stuck on You" Challenge.
Are we nearly there yet? (~3,200)

Finding Their Way
For the sga_flashfic Amnesty 2007, using the 38 minutes and First Night prompts. The original plot bunny was for a companion piece to "First Contact" (above), and there may be more along these lines.
"I have an office" (~1,200)

Defender
Written for pansychubb for sga_santa. This is a revised version without the typos.
"May I have your attention, please? This is Colonel Carter. Colonel Sheppard is to be considered an immediate and serious threat to the security of the city." (~7,300)

Some Assistance Required
Possibly the only SGA fic to ever have been inspired by the Office Paperclip. Thank you, greyias
What's a team for, if not to lend a helping hand? (~2,000)
And, five minutes later:
Aroma
Possibly the only time Rodney lets his coffee go cold.

Research
For bironic, from the prompt "Ronon + Amphiboly". My first SGA drabble.

Five Mission Reports Sheppard's Team Turned In (And One They Didn't) (McKay/Sheppard)
This was a pinch hit for sga_santa, now adapted to be gen rather than McKay/Sheppard, because that's what I'm happier with. (~2,600)

Watch the Birdie
SGA; Gen; G. This is what happens when fans get hold of set drawings.
Sheppard had long known that his football footage wasn't the most unusual personal item that had been brought to Atlantis. (~2,100)

Rise up and fight
SGA; Gen; PG. For the 'Not Dead Yet' challenge.
"A little I'm hurt, but yet not slayne. I'll but lye down and bleed awhile, and then I'll rise and fight again." Sir Andrew Barton. (~6,350)

Bibula Harena
For the sga_genficathon. My genre was 'Action/Adventure' and my prompt was 'Slavery, captives or hostages'
This is all there is, the stick in his hand, the knife in his belt, the crowd roaring around him, and the man he has to kill. (~17,000)

Five times McKay and Sheppard arrived back in Atlantis without their clothes (and one time they nearly had to leave without them)
For the sga_flashfic 'Five Things' Challenge
Animal, Vegetable, Mineral - the Pegasus Edition (~6,330)

True Colours (The Mother's Love Remix)
A remix of dossier's Habits of a Lifetime for gateverse_remix
When Meredith is four, she buys him a Big Chief tablet (~1,400)

Genus: Wraith (The Who Are You Remix)
Pinch-hit for gateverse_remix of cupidsbow's Class: Insecta
John is better, and it is good to have him back. She is relieved and happy. Of course she is. (~3,280)

Resonance
My sgabigbang 2008 entry.
As everyone tries to put Atlantis back together again, John has an accident that gives him more of an insight into the city and the Ancients than he ever could have wanted. Unfortunately, this also gives the city and the Ancients an insight into him. (~46,000)

In Memoriam
For leesa_perrie in the Fall 2008 fic Exchange at sgahcchallenges
Now he has new pain to pile on the old, a layer of scars so thick that he finds it hard to remember what lies beneath them. (~2,300)

Not Dead Yet
For archae_ology as part of the Fandom Free For All
"The box was large and striped, its lid flipped back and a small, handwritten note in front of it. Teyla paused as she passed.

Congratulations on not being dead.
O'Neill" (~3,750)


Milk Run
For pollitt as part of the Fandom Free For All
The life of a soldier is long periods of boredom interspersed with brief moments of terror. This is one of the former. (~1,300)

Port Call
So. Pirate fic then. Written for chensuu as part of the Fandom Free For All, although I feel a little guilty about that because it was too much fun to write.
Port Call. Being the True and Factual Account of the Adventures of Rodney McKay, Genius, and his Encounters with those Fearsome Criminals of the Pirate Ship Wraith. John Sheppard was also there. (~3,600)

Board Wars
Written with greyias for the 'Team' challenge over at sga_flashfic. This is a multimedia fic that's probably better read than described. All I can say is that it was more fun than is possibly legal...
"Earth seems to have a lot of games." "We get bored easily."
