Author's Notes: Again, haven't written anything in a long long time besides role playing, and it had no beta. Comments and critique encouraged, but please don't bitch me out. Got enough of that as it is. The title is from a story passage we had to read earlier this semester in my Humanities class. Enjoy! :D
Elizabeth wrinkled her nose in disgust as she approached the team. “That is an... interesting aroma.”
“We smell like shit,” John pointed out dryly, irritation dripping off his every word.
“Oh, come on,” Rodney griped, “it looked like a mud pit! How was I supposed to know the planet was rampant with giant mutant elephants?”
With a sigh, Dr. Weir held up a hand to stop the two men as they began bickering. “Enough. Is everyone alright?”
Muck plopped onto the floor as Teyla unclipped her P-90 from her tack vest. In the midst of all this brown mess, a clean white light shone off Elizabeth's finger and caught her eye. The Athosian smiled, remembering how she had knelt in the diplomat's office moments before they had departed to the “shit-hole,” as Colonel Sheppard referred to the planet. Meeting her lover's gaze, they exchanged a knowing smile.
“Are you okay?” Elizabeth asked her, ignoring Rodney as he began to whine about, once again, losing his tablet and Power Bar®s.
And Teyla smiled. “I am okay.”
