Stargate Atlantis ficlet: never been afraid to die, and not afraid to live

Jan 19, 2008 21:54

never been afraid to die, and not afraid to live [Stargate Atlantis, Ronon/Keller, PG-13, 625 words, spoilers for 4x13 - Quarantine. Written for Porn Battle V, prompts words: lockdown, protection. But not porny.]

( It's been a long time, and it's strange, this mixture of protect and want. Ronon's almost forgotten how it goes. )

You know, watching that scene, I was all, NO Ronon, Don't! But then as the ep progressed, JM and JS made it work, and I was pissed as hell when the lights came back on and they HADN't KISSED.

This takes away that pissedness. Because it was perfect! Thank you!

Yay, thank you - I'm so glad it was the right ending for you!

I was totally unspoiled, so I didn't know what to expect. And I hadn't thought of the pairing previously, but they completely sold me on it, just in one episode!

*flails* I finished watching the episode five minutes ago and then refreshed my flist and this was at the top! I love these two together and they are so completely adorable here. Eeeeeeeee!!!

Yay for good timing! I'm so glad you enjoyed it!

This is great! A perfect coda to last night. I *really* wanted them to kiss. These two are just so fantastic and adorable.

Yay! :-)

Thank you so much!

I hadn't actually considered the pairing before, but after that episode I feel for them. And yes, I was so hoping they'd get to kiss!

In some ways Keller is the complete opposite of Kaylee, confident about her brains and not her sexual/social skills. But they both have that sweetness that I suspect is pure Jewel.

This was a lovely coda to the ep!

Yes, I think you're so right there. And I'm really growing to love the character.

This was a lovely coda to the ep!

Thank you so much!

Oh, so beautiful! I love Ronon's longing and how new and wonderful this is for him, yes, he's finally coming back to life and he's not afraid of it. Beautiful!

Thank you so much! I'm so glad it rang true for you - just something about the way he talked about the woman on Sateda who Keller reminded him of made me think that he's finally trying to make his life something new and real again.
