fic: "To Serve A Queen" - The DVD Commentary - Part Five

TITLE: To Serve A Queen
PAIRING: Elizabeth Weir/Ronan Dex
RATING: R
NOTES: This chapter was mostly to establish Ronon in the setting of Elizabeth's court. Where he fit, who he talked to, and his status as a warrior. It also served as a confrontation point with John - one which allows both to get their natural aggression out, but also to walk away without injury to each other. That's more difficult than one might imagine when dealing with two powerful, possessive Warlord Princes.

fic: To Serve A Queen - The DVD Commentary Part Six

TITLE: To Serve A Queen - The DVD Commentary Part Six
SUMMARY: She was the Queen, but the people who served her belonged to themselves. It was all a balance of trust.
PAIRING: Elizabeth Weir/Ronan Dex
RATING: R
NOTES: Right. This chapter is full of references of all types and kinds. This is where things get (IMO) really interesting.

To Serve A Queen - Part Seven (The DVD Commentary Version)

TITLE: To Serve A Queen - Part Seven (The DVD Commentary Version)
SUMMARY: If he looked down at the empty courtyard, he could almost see her standing down there, dark-haired, fair-skinned, proud and graceful, and with the vital, vibrant aura of a Queen.
PAIRING: Elizabeth Weir/Ronan Dex
RATING: R
NOTES: It was around this time that I realised that this story was a monster, sucking the life out of me with more ferocity than a leech. I'd set up a scenario...now I had to write it to the bitter end! This chapter doesn't have as many comments in it as the last one did.

BTW, if you have any questions you'd like answered that I haven't answered, let me know and I'll try to include them!

fic: To Serve A Queen - Part Eight (the DVD Commentary)

TITLE: To Serve A Queen - Part Eight (the DVD Commentary)
SUMMARY: His choice. Her loss.
PAIRING: Ronan/Weir, implied Sheppard/Teyla
RATING: R
NOTES: You know, I'm not sure why I indicated implied Sheppard/Teyla. Because it's no more implied than any other chapter I've written so far. I might have been a bit over-sensitive to the Shep/Teyla hate in the fandom. Anyway, this has quite a few notes in it. Again, if I've missed something you want to ask about, go ahead and ask in the comments!

fic: To Serve A Queen - Part Nine - the DVD commentary

TITLE: To Serve A Queen - Part Nine - the DVD commentary
SUMMARY: Arrogant, overprotective, endearing - the males of her court caused her no end of frustration - but no end of joy. Which was, after all, the way it was supposed to be.
PAIRING: Liz/Ronan
RATING: R
NOTES: It's been a while since I posted up the last commentary, even if this comes out on the 2nd December like all the others. I'm getting a little weary of Atlantis fandom, to tell you true. The condescension is something dreadful.

To Serve A Queen - Part Ten - DVD commentary

TITLE: To Serve A Queen - Part Ten - DVD commentary
SUMMARY: He allowed himself a moment's regret that he wouldn't be staying in the court. He would have enjoyed the give-and-take among the Blood of this court, familiar with each other, and yet inclusive of the stranger their Queen had brought home.
PAIRING: Liz/Ronan
RATING: R
NOTES: I wanted some interaction between Ronon and the court - this was it.

To Serve A Queen - Part Eleven - The DVD Commentary

TITLE: To Serve A Queen - Part Eleven - The DVD Commentary
SUMMARY: Elizabeth was not willing to risk good relations with the Gennii on John. And she wasn't all that willing to risk John either.
PAIRING: Liz/Ronan
RATING: R
NOTES: I'm running out of things to say, to be honest. I don't know what people want to hear.

fic: "To Serve A Queen" - Part Twelve

TITLE: To Serve A Queen - Part Twelve
SUMMARY: It was almost service. Not quite, but almost. It would have to be enough.
PAIRING: Liz/Ronan
RATING: R
NOTES: Some cross-show crack references in this one. Okay, modification. I'll post every couple of days, could be two, could be three. But I have things on the go all over the place, so it'll be sporadic. Yeesh. And I'm not looking forwards to trying to post this up on the net.
