Title: Lessons of Loss
Author: miriel
Beta: scififreak
Rating: PG
Author's Notes: I just about strangled cesperanza through the web over this one - I scrambled and scrambled to get it done for the midnight deadline, and then she extended it (so I went and got a beta to look it over). Written for the sga_flashfic prompt Backstory, at the behest of cupidsbow.

Summary: ( For as long as she can remember, Teyla has known death. )

Title: Choice
Author: miriel
Rating: PG?
Spoilers: Rising.
Author's Notes: Written for the Dopplegangers challenge over on sga_flashfic. A concept I've wanted to play with, and have never gotten around to really fulfilling. This isn't what I'd been planning for this, but I think it works passably. YMMV. 1800 Words. Written about John Sheppard for beaniesheppard's birthday, ( Read more... )

Rating: PG
Author's Note: Written for the "Scars" challenge over on sga_flashfic. This is a concept that occurred to me while I was getting trained in the electrical trade, and has refused to leave me alone. Also, please note that there is a secondary Author's Note after the story, explaining my take on a certain ( Read more... )

Title: Broken Promises
Author: miriel
Rating: PG
Author's Note: One of many snapshots into the future of The Enemy You Know, this one was written as a combination of the Return challenge on sga_flashfic and a request from hummingbird_ and fred_god_of for more of the Enemy 'verse. Roughly 1400 words, and does deal in part with the death of a child.

Summary: ( The healer continued on, oblivious to her inner struggle. 'I can’t help him if I can’t take a look at him. I’m not going to hurt your boy, I promise.'

Emma shook her head, speaking before she could think better of it. 'But you already have.' )

Title: Sand Through the Glass

Betae: ladyholder and druidspell were kind enough to stay on speaking terms with me throughout the publishing of this, and occasionally smack me in the head with a dead fish regarding comma splices.

Title: Healed, But Never Whole
Author: miriel
Rating: PG
Pairing: Kate Heightmeyer/OMC
Author's Notes: Written for the "Return" prompt on sga_flashfic. This piece is indirectly set in the Bridges universe, but like my other flashfics in that universe it's a sideline and not main plot arc. This can also be read as a sequel to Fibrosis, but it's not actually ( Read more... )

Title: Official Missive
Author: miriel
Spoilers: The Return Part 1 (3x10)
Author's Note: A thought that's been bugging me for a while, finally given short-form. The first thing that came to mind when I heard that sga_flashfic's new prompt was "Villains".

( Not the villain you would expect. Or, quite possibly, *exactly* the villain you would expect. )

Title: The Birds
Author: miriel
Rating: PG
Author's Note: Um, so this didn't go at all where I had expected it to. I am very interested to hear what anyone thinks of it. It's a look at an aspect of the Genii life that I'm not sure anyone has poked at, yet, as well as an unexpected look into Kolya's motivations.

ETA: Mild correlation with ( Read more... )

Title: Living Memory
Author: miriel
Universe: Indirect sequel to The Enemy You Know. Prior knowledge not necessary. Spoilers through Misbegotten.
Rating: PG
Author's Note: This is a short that I've been meaning to write for some time. I leave it to you to determine who is the villain, and who the victim.

Universe: Bridges
Pairing: Background Elizabeth Weir/Ladon Radim.
Author's Note: Apparently I'm on a roll, or something. This (like my other "Masks & Masquerade" submissions) is set in the Bridges universe, but doesn't require any detailed knowledge of it. For background on the Weir/Radim pairing, click here ( Read more... )
