7th Jan - how awesome are pairings of emotionally reserved/ruthless women and more emotionally open men?

The simple answer to this is "really awesome".

The complex answer is...complex.

switching things up, emotional honesty, and relationship dynamics )

...or did you want me to ramble about my favourite pairings? Because I can do that, too!

[livejournal.com profile] mescott is giving page previews of SGA Legacy series book 5 "Secrets" over at her LJ. And I spotted this!
"Come on, Rodney," John said. "Can't you think of anybody to hit on besides Sam?"

"There's Teyla." Rodney stopped in the doorway as though the thought had just struck him. "She's hot."

"It took you almost six years to notice that?"
And, most strangely, I laughed and laughed and laughed...

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.

So, seeing as we've gone live for the [livejournal.com profile] sga_beya Elf Challenge 2011, I can link back my work!

My recip was [livejournal.com profile] foxyinthecity and she wanted fic. Fortunately, I was in a position to provide fic!

TITLE: Like Flying (a.k.a. "Five Times John Thought About Kissing Teyla And The One Time He Did
SUMMARY: He got the shorthand rules of Stargate travel from O'Neill. No-one gets left behind. Don't be a dick. Talk more than you shoot. Don't think with your dick.
RATING: PG-13
CATEGORY: Friendship, Attraction, UST.
NOTES: An old prompt from the [livejournal.com profile] sg_five_things challenge. As ever, it got long.
AO3 LINK: here

TITLE: The One Who Doesn't Walk Away
SUMMARY: Teyla won't walk away from the people she loves. John wouldn't ask her to.
RATING: PG-13
CATEGORY: Thoughts, Angst.
NOTES: Inspired by a scene from the SGA Legacy book Homecoming, but there are no major spoilers.
AO3 LINK: here

TITLE: Nothing To Say
SUMMARY: "There is nothing you need to say. There is nothing you could say to me that your actions have not said a thousand times."
RATING: PG-13
CATEGORY: Missing Scene, Friendship, Relationship
NOTES: Inspired by several scenes from the SGA Legacy book The Lost, but no spoilers.
AO3 LINK: here

TITLE: Better Than Sex
SUMMARY: John's never been good at talking about intimacy. Or, for that matter, at intimacy...
RATING: R
CATEGORY: Missing Scene, Relationship, Angst, Romance.
NOTES: A missing scene from the SGA Legacy book Allegiance, but you don't have to have read the book. No major spoilers, I think.
AO3 LINK: here

And the reveal gift!
TITLE: Sex In The City
SUMMARY: In the earliest days of the expedition, before things get complicated, there's speculation about whether or not the city really is sentient. John could tell them, but he soon realises that it's the argument that's important to most people - not the answer.
RATING: NC-17
CATEGORY: Relationship, Romance, Fluff, Porn.
NOTES: This took me forever to write. It started with an old prompt "John wants Teyla but can't bring himself to make a move. Atlantis knows John wants Teyla and starts 'helping' him out... Hilarity ensues." And then it...got bigger than I expected. (No dirty jokes, now!)

So, I got nominated in the Sunnydale Memorial Fanfiction Awards for a couple of odd fics:

Xander [Anya/Wesley]
Men were pigs. Good looking pigs, perhaps; occasionally good-in-bed pigs, but still pigs.

Puppies And Playthings [Willow/Xander, Willow/Anyanka, Xander/Anyanka, Angel/Willow]
Why should puppies have all the fun?
Warnings for torture, non-con, reasonably graphic violence.

It looks like the Porn Battle XII: The Dirty Dozen is coming to fandom in the first week of August!

And that makes me happy because not only will I have the [livejournal.com profile] teylafen Thing-A-Thon and [livejournal.com profile] sheppard_hc entries to read that first week, there will also be porn! (Although not as much for the pairings I like, which is sadmaking, but usual.)

--

There's a Summer Break Prompt Battle about to happen over at [livejournal.com profile] sga_beya - the prompt post is currently locked only to members due to the mod's concern about spam, but I'm hoping they'll allow everyone to make responses and not just members.

eta: I just remembered that [livejournal.com profile] apocalypse_kree is calling for prompts for the 2011 Stargate Apocalypse. This year, they're accepting SG1, SGA, and SGU prompts - so if you've had a Stargate Apocafic plotbunny for a while, you might like to offload it and see if anyone would like to write it!

Rodney's a chameleon, Ronon's a horse. Teyla has too much hair, and John's going to get his ass kicked if he doesn't stop laughing. Never let it be said that [livejournal.com profile] ileliberte doesn't bring the crack!

Psst! John! In this incarnation, she's got a FRYPAN...

I needed a good laugh today after writing 5,000 words to an SGA AU, to add to the 2,000 I wrote yesterday, and the 4,000 I wrote the day before that.

And I still don't know if I'm signed up for the challenge because the mod's gone AWOL...

Bird Watching (The Lofty Pigeon Remix) for [livejournal.com profile] gblvr

This was an interesting one to write, since my recipient and I share almost zero pairings or favourite characters. I figured that I could do Radek and Elizabeth, with a hint of Radek/Elizabeth, and pigeons. Very educational in the research factor!

Cops And Robbers (The All Out Of Vanilla Remix) for [livejournal.com profile] windandthestars
Sanctuary: Kate/Will, roleplay

I swore I wasn't going to pinch-hit. And then this came up in the list of pinch-hits and I went "OOOH! MUST REMIX A KATE/WILL FIC!" I liked the idea of roleplaying but wanted to see Kate being domme. Tie in Will's realisation that he likes it when Kate's domme and how he and she react to it, and, yeah, they're all out of vanilla, baby!

Four Times The Inception Team Were Hired To Extract Information From The Atlantis Team (The Good Son Remix) for [livejournal.com profile] bironic
SGA/Inception crossover; Patrick Sheppard, David Sheppard, OMC.

This was a random remix I picked out of the remix lottery, because I liked the original story. At first the remix was just a POV change - from the SGA team's perspective as the Inception team try to extract information from their brains - along with a conclusion as to exactly who was fishing for information about Atlantis. And what they did or didn't get. It felt...inadequate at the end. So I wrote this one instead. And I'm still not convinced it's the story I wanted to write, but it's all I could produce at the time.

A Beautiful Thing (The Birth, Death, and Rebirth Remix) for [livejournal.com profile] wojelah
SGA: Teyla, John, Ronon, Rodney - with a hint of John/Teyla

The idea that we betray who we are in the manner that we smile is one that's intrigued me for a while and I couldn't resist remixing Wojelah's story about Teyla and smiles.

NOTES: This was written for [livejournal.com profile] shetiger in the [livejournal.com profile] sga_santa 2010 challenge. I think she liked it, although I'm pretty sure it's not a patch on any of the other post-EATG fics that have been written in the last couple of years. Teyla-and-John-centric with team (as in, "Rodney and Ronon do things useful to the plot" kind of team). This got way longer than I originally intended. But then, the story unfolded somewhat differently to how I originally planned it, too.

Teyla could pity the shaken and shocked Earth personnel standing around her in the briefing room of the Daedalus. Earth had never known death such as this before.

She asked for "John/Teyla, Team; Season 2 or 3; A story that includes the following: A summer’s day, a wedding, a wedding feast, an unexpected complication (I would prefer if the complication was not the Wraith, but I leave that up to you), and dancing in the moonlight. It can be light and fluffy or dark and tragic or anything in between." I think this fills not only the light and fluffy, but the dark and tragic, too, as well as everything in between! And I'm so very sorry it's this late. I wanted to get it just right and somehow it just wouldn't come together until just this month.

I hope you enjoy it!
