Uh, this one's long!

For the [livejournal.com profile] sga_santa 2011, I got assigned [profile] starry_haze! And she got this:

TITLE: Widow's Pique
SUMMARY: Among the Blood, Black Widows are witches who are feared and distrusted for the skill with which they can weave tangled webs to see visions of the future - or entrap the mind. But when Teyla Emmagan of Athos village is called to the court of the Queen of Atlantis Territory, she is less concerned about being misunderstood, and more worried to step awry in the complex politics of the Atlantis court.

Then, too, there is the distracting presence of John Sheppard, a Warlord Prince whose interest in her is something Teyla cannot fathom. Does he distrust her motives? Is he merely protecting his Queen? Or is his interest something else - something that Teyla must learn to accept in order to best serve her Queen, her Territory, and her own heart?
RATING: R
WARNINGS: (highlight to see) rape in a character's history
CHARACTERS: Teyla, John, Elizabeth, Carson, Sumner, Rodney, Bates, assorted original characters
PAIRING: John/Teyla
NOTES: This is the first part of the prequel to 'To Serve A Queen', and has been added to a little bit at a time for the last five years. I didn't think [livejournal.com profile] starry_haze would mind too much if I completed it as her SGA Santa fic - it fit most of her requirements, the concerning one being "close-to-canon AUs". I made several other attempts at ficness - the original plan was to write EPIC LONGFIC "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road" for her, but that fizzled thanks to writing angst, and then my attempt to write the 'Dave Sheppard has to deal with John/Teyla' fic "My Brother's Keeper" went bye-byes so this was it.

There was a second part to 'Widow's Pique' planned - one which features Elizabeth's court in its full glory and deals with Michael, Kanaan, and John/Teyla. I started with a basic romance plot and then about 18 months ago, reshuffled the plot to be EPIC. *coughs* I don't think it will ever be written, though.

TITLE: In The Game: No Points For Stupidity
SUMMARY: John knows Teyla isn't going to like this, but it's not about her. Really.
RATING: PG-13
CATEGORY: crackerrific, high school AU, drama, action/adventure, angst.
DISCLAIMER: Not mine, making no money, etc.
WORDCOUNT: 3127
NOTES: So, this is from the ages-old High School AU I wrote back in 2007-ish. I blame its resurgence on [livejournal.com profile] ninja007 for asking for 'John and Michael fighting over Teyla'. She actually wanted it from The Prodigal but that wasn't going to happen. So, it was back to the high school AU and one of the ending scenes...

TITLE: The Good Guys
SUMMARY: They're the good guys. Don't get on their bad side.
CATEGORY: AU, team, crackerrific crossover
WORD COUNT: 5,714
RATING: PG-13
NOTES: Written for the [livejournal.com profile] sga_genficathon, which just went un-anon! I took some liberties with the prompt "Buyer beware" after [livejournal.com profile] arabel suggested: "biting off more than you can chew" as an approximation of the prompt. And then things just...uh...kinda got outta hand. (As they do with these characters.) Thank to [personal profile] ailelie, who was extremely helpful in beta! The quotations are from 'Murphy's Laws of War'. Interpret them as you will!

And yes, the poster is imitated from here. I tried putting Atlantis in the background, but it proved too much for my limited photoshopping skillz.

TITLE: Shattered Balances
SUMMARY: In that moment of focus, before the Meld broke, she felt the others reach for her - an instinctive clutch for the originator, the Nightwing. The reach was instinctive, reckless, doomed. They, too, splintered, as the mind torn loose its ties of loyalty shattered in pain and rage and grief.
CATEGORY: crackerrific AU, team
RATING: PG-13
DISCLAIMER: Stargate Atlantis does not belong to me, but the Shadowkin and everything about them are mine.
NOTES: This started out as something for the [livejournal.com profile] sga_flashfic "Not Human" challenge, although I've had the concepts of the Shadowkin and the Meld in my head for a long time. In the end, I posted it for the [livejournal.com profile] team_sga Team Teyla AU challenge on a 'quiet' day. Unfortunately, I still haven't managed to finish the other Team Teyla AU challenge I had planned for the books. *sigh*

TITLE: Share And Share Alike
SUMMARY: It is a truth universally acknowledged that in any shared household, the bathroom is always the first zone of war.
CATEGORY: Crackerrific AU, team, friendship
RATING: PG-13
NOTES: Written for the [livejournal.com profile] team_sga Team Teyla AU. College AU - "The four of them as college students: John's double-majoring in history and math, Ronon's an art history major, Teyla's in communications and econ, and Rodney's a grad student in the physics department, even though he's roughly the same age as the others. Because of the lack of available housing on campus and the limited options off-campus, they end up sharing a house. Wacky hijinks ensue."
