FANDOM: Stargate Atlantis
LENGTH: 295 words
MOOD/RATING: Silly/PG
PAIRING: None
CHALLENGE: sga_flashfic Secret Superpowers challenge
SUMMARY: Finding an ancient artifact that grants the user one wish seems like it would be a good thing... right? (Sadly not beta'd as I couldn't find a willing victim-- er reader)
"I don't care what you think, it's not a superpower.""
Rodney gave John an annoyed look, "Says who?"
"Well it’s just plain wrong for one thing."
"I thought you just said I didn't have any powers."
"I said no superpowers."
Teyla gestured to the rather messy battlefield. "He turned the wraith ship into-- was is it called again? Jehyoh?"
Ronon shrugged dismissively, "Jell-O."
"Yeah, like your amazing pudding powers are any better," Rodney glared at the warrior.
Ronon raised an eyebrow, "Chocolate pudding."
"The point is, you turned a perfectly good ship into Jell-O." Sheppard waved his arm at the food spattered field.
"So?"
"Ship. To. Jell-O. Evil."
Teyla frowned, "I believe you were the one that insisted we find the artifact prior to eating."
"Food is not a superpower!"
"Oh, and I suppose what you got was better?" Rodney snorted.
"yes."
"Oh, so turning the Wraith into cows somehow isn't a food related superpower?" Rodney rolled his eyes. "Way to split hairs there. Teyla was the only one who wasn't hungry when we touched that dammed thing, and I'll take pudding over livestock any day."
"How do we know she wasn't? She just hasn't tried using the powers yet."
The three gave Teyla a measuring look and she sighed.
"Fine. Here," she made a gesture at the nearest rock and it promptly turned into what appeared to be a very comfy chair.
There was a moment of silence as they regarded the rock-that-was.
"I was tired," she snapped. "And I didn't think turning wraith ships into plummeting furniture was a good idea. Happy?"
John sighed as the team started back towards the gate, with Rodney and Ronon taking potshots at the local flora with their newfound abilities. Maybe the comics had a point about secret superpowers...
