Up for Grabs [Jun. 4th, 2008|07:00 pm]

thepouncer
Hey all,

[info]akire_yta and I are both out of Atlantis fandom and busy with other things, and consequently are not up to running another round of the Back to Basics challenge. Is there anyone out there who'd like to take over the community and associated challenge administration? We'd be glad to hand it over to an enthusiastic fan, if there's demand for another round. If not, no worries. The community will remain here unaltered, but quiet.

Thanks, and let us know if you want to volunteer,
Pouncer and Akire

Recipient: [info]let_fate_decide
Title: Celestial Navigation
Author: tigerlady ([info]shetiger)
Rating: PG
Category: Pre-slash
Spoilers: Through Aurora
Summary: John and Rodney on the Daedalus.

Notes: This is a very, very belated entry for this exchange. I most sincerely apologize to [info]let_fate_decide, and I hope this is at least a little of what you were wanting. Her prompt: Missing scene from Aurora, maybe? I love the ships, both Ancient and Earth-made.

Celestial Navigation.

FIC: In Dreams [Sep. 11th, 2007|05:13 pm]

roaringmice
Title: In Dreams

Author: RoaringMice

Written for: Rosie/LFD let_fate_decide

Rating: PG-13

Summary: “Now,” the man said. “It’s time for the trial to begin.”

Warnings: Swearing

Notes: Takes place early in Season One

Rosie’s request: Anything from season one, especially team!fic. (Ford!)

This is a pinch-hit, thus the lateness. Enjoy!

x-x

Ford’s fingers grasped at fabric as Sheppard pulled away. Ford froze, afraid that any movement on his part would only make things worse.

“Sir?” he said, keeping his voice purposefully low and even despite the mad beat of his heart. This was bad – the cliff’s edge was just in front of Sheppard, and Ford wasn’t sure of the stability of the terrain.

Story Index [Aug. 27th, 2007|11:38 am]

thepouncer
Under the cut tag, you'll find a detailed index of the stories written for the [info]atlantisbasics challenge. They're organized by genre (gen, slash, other – thus far we have no solely het submissions), then alphabetically by title. I'll be adding additional stories as they're posted.

[info]akire_yta and I want to extend our thanks to everybody who participated and created such wonderful works.

a/n: Wow. This took a long to plan out and actually complete, but I'm proud of it, and I hope it [somewhat] meets your expectations. If the plot is not clear to you by the end, I'll be putting in another a/n, so no worries.

Assignments List [Aug. 25th, 2007|04:37 pm]

thepouncer
[info] did all the matching up, and the list she sent me was a bit incomplete, I suspect to preserve an element of mystery as to who was writing for me. So there are some question marks down there, which I will fill in either as soon as something as posted, or as soon as Aki gets online (she's in New Zealand, I'm in Northern Virginia, so that'll be tonight EST at the earliest).

If I've made any mistakes, please let me know. My brain is all fuzzy today.

insight2
Recipient: [info]neierathima, written mostly for the last two prompts, in small ways.
a) Sheppard doing things (normal, actual, things) that would be
expected given he is an officer in the United States Air Force.
b) Anthropological of inhabiting a base in a completely different galaxy, interacting with other cultures. Well, anthropological anything, really.
c) Science. Experiments that would be occurring as planned (as opposed to weird Pegasus stuff/emergencies), by preference.

The Boy Who Didn't Need Stories (G), for [info]roaringmice [Aug. 25th, 2007|02:20 am]

wojelah
Recipient: [info]roaringmice 
Title: The Boy Who Didn't Need Stories
Author: [info]wojelah 
Rating: G
Category: gen, or mild pre-ship (Radek/Teyla)
Spoilers: None in particular.
Summary: Once upon a time, there lived a small boy who had no use for fairy tales. Many years later, his head pounding and blood on his shirt, opening his eyes and finding that he is sitting against a sealed bulkhead, with a ton of debris cutting three of his friends off from their only chance at safety, Radek Zelenka thinks about his grandmother, and the story of the golden bird, and realizes that he might, finally, have started to understand.
Recipient requested: a) Ronon observing the Sheppard/McKay dynamic; b) Adventure story where Radek gets hurt but saves the day; c) Teyla and Radek exchanging cultural tokens. This hits two of three?
