TITLE: Ways And No Ways
AUTHOR: Tielan
RATING: PG
SUMMARY: What could have been, what would have been, what should have been, are gone. There's only the present left to them.
WORD COUNT: 373
NOTES: I wrote this in the last...um...fifteen minutes. It's nearly 11pm and I was drawing an absolute blank as to what I could sub for today's
choc_fic challenge. Unfortunately, my brain has lately gone epic and anything that presented itself was no less than 30,000 words or so. *grimace* This was written for the prompt "
Stargate: Atlantis, Teyla/anyone/gen: alternatives - coulda, woulda, shoulda." I wanted to do more gen with a focus on Teyla, but it's just not presenting itself lately. The muse is all PWP, angst, or fricking epic right now.
With thanks to
ltcoljsheppard, who unconsciously prompted me with his fic "
When He Touches Her"!
"
There's a moment, with his hand on the swell of her belly, when John feels like the father of Teyla's child."
