You write such pretty fic yourself that I will write my first ever Shep/Teyla fic for you (even if it is an entire month after you posted). ^_^ I'm normally a Shep/Weir fan, but I sat down a few weeks ago to try to understand Shep/Teyla, and I swear to god the ship is starting to take me over. ^_^
Also, do you mind if I friend you?

Teyla tipped her head curiously. "Why is this structure upside down?"
John flicked a piece of popcorn up in the air, valiantly attempting to catch it in his mouth--but failing. After wasting two more golden kernels, he turned his head towards her. "Well it's the 'Believe it or Not' museum. They specialize in weird."
Her lips curled into a smile. "I thought you were going to take me to Disneyworld?"
He choked on his popcorn. "Ah, well..." He laughed nervously. "See, there was a completely unforseeable issue that involved the Magic Kingdom being closed today..."
She knew full well that what he actually meant was 'I didn't check ahead and I'm sorry.' Her face lit up, especially when he gave her his trademark innocent look. "I'm sure it was unavoidable," she managed to say in a steady voice.
"Hey, give me a break! I was in another galaxy." John gave her a look of mock injury, but then he paused for a few seconds. When he turned back to her, his face was tinged with slight embarrassment. "Um...sorry?"
She gave him a lopsided smile before turning back to the peculiar building with interest. Looking down at the Orlando tourist book that John had purchased for her, she silently read the header: Ripley's Believe it or Not! Be shocked, be amazed! Believe the unbelievable!
"To be honest, I am quite curious as to some of these exhibits."
He perked up immediately. "Really? Hey, there's lots of cool stuff in there, you know. And--."
She held up a hand to stop him, her eyes still glued to the tourist guide. "John...?"
"Mmm?"
Her face twitched in horror. "What is an Aztec Shrunken Head?"
Honestly, I'm okay with John and Teyla just as friends, too - it doesn't have to be directly romantic. In fact, in a lot of cases, I prefer it when it's friends-with-a-little-UST. Weird, I know!
Thank you for the ficlet! And yes, people are free to friend me. I'm not big on the automatic friending, though, although when people comment on my LJ, I'm more likely to go have a look at their journal from time to time as an irregular thing.
