Jennifer was not in the best of moods. On the outside this meant that she was only slightly less perky than usual. On the inside, however, it was a different story ( Read more... )

On the day of John Sheppard's disappearance, Rodney is woken up by his dog barking up a storm in his abandoned hut. After searching the Island, he goes to see Jill, and they come to the reluctant and heart-wrenching conclusion that John may be gone before going to look for Carson and anyone else who might have seen him, in ( Read more... )

It had been exactly a month since the...weekend debacle, and everything seemed to be fine with Jill, which meant Rodney McKay didn't have an excuse to stay hidden in his hut for much longer. Avoiding Sheppard and everyone else seemed a little immature, and Rodney did not want such an unflattering adjective attached to his name ( Read more... )

Laura Cadman enjoyed living on the edge. The thrill of the chase, the adrenaline that coursed through her veins like wildfire whenever she or the team she was on got into a tight spot, the way the breath would hitch in her chest when she'd defuse a bomb, firing back at Wraiths, dealing with top secret nuclear issues that would have scared the ( Read more... )

Charlie had got the twins a corking pet, but now that it had learned where it was and all that, it had started to get a bit aggressive, flaring its spines and opening its mouth. Charlie learned two things quick. The iguana was more like a dragon than he'd assumed. Also, it was a quick bugger. Just shy of seven feet long, tip of his snout to the tip ( Read more... )

It's early yet, but the dawn light creeping in her window'd woken Terry up, and sleep hadn't returned. She's been sleeping better more nights out of the week than not, and she's feeling better than she has in the past six weeks.

It seems almost a small number, when put in those terms. Six weeks she's been here ( Read more... )

All things considered -- her near wedding to Rodney, for one, and the fact that John and Mayko had both witnessed her madness -- Jill was feeling relatively cheerful. The disaster had been averted with as little bloodshed as possible and she was determined not to let the clothes box and its endless supply of wedding dresses get her down. If Mayko ( Read more... )

Carson should have known that the second he'd decided to head up to the compound early for his clinic shift that something would go awry. He'd been in his hut, going through more of the translations from the wraith device Teyla'd had when she'd been on the island. The bit he was currently on was particularly dense, and admittedly, frustrating. ( Read more... )

Dated April 29th, 2009:
Rodney wakes up in the morning feeling different. He feels just gosh darn swell, in fact. He and Jill go to the Compound for the best breakfast - and the best proposal - ever.

Later, Rodney returns to New Atlantis to tell John and Carson (and anyone else he might run into) the ( Read more... )
