skoosiepantsThere's so much excitement when starting to write in a new fandom!! As ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
maegunnbatt pointed out (who is writing super keen Plumfic right now and is just too cool for school), everything's just so fresh and shiny and... new. :D
Even though SGA really isn't new to me since I've been rabidly reading and fangirling since the summer but still! I think I'm really hitting my stride with this AU. I'm up to 15 pages and I've actually already written the end, which is really weird for me. I just have to go back and fill in the middle. I don't think I've ever written anything that way before. Huh.
The McShep banter is the hardest part, so...
Teyla bowed her head, soft pleasure curling her lips. “That is very generous of you, Prince John.”
“Just being neighborly.” He broke into a grin.
“Neighborly,” Rodney harrumphed, dropping down beside him and biting into a round of flat bread Teyla had wordlessly passed him. “You just want Atlantis to be as magical and cool as Athos.”
“Hey now,” John protested. “Atlantis already is cool. Two words, Rodney: glass. castle.”
Rodney rolled his eyes. “Yes, yes, and perhaps one day a rock will be thrown and you’ll have to build something more structurally sound.”
“Yeah, ‘cause it’s not like all of you over at Athos didn’t beg my parents for help with the Genii,” he cracked.
John had a point, of course, but Rodney wasn’t actually going to admit it. “That proves nothing about the impenetrability of Athos Castle—”
“Except it does,” John interrupted smugly.
“And anyway, there’s an extraordinarily hirsute man striding towards us, though man is really too restrictive a term. It may be a dog.”
......
An uncomfortable silence fell, then John clapped his hands together. “Well. You’re welcome to our camp, but we won’t be here for long.”
Ronon nodded. “I’ve been following you.”
“Great.” Rodney bobbed his head. “That’s just, ah, great. Really,” he said, then hissed to John, “what are you doing? He could be rabid!”
“Can it, Rodney,” he muttered out of the side of his mouth, then grinned brightly at Ronon. “Sit. Eat. Teyla has… bread.”
“Yes, but not an endless supply!” Rodney added desperately.
Your opinion is duly appreciated!!

Why do I feel like Rodney is the little known lovechild of McGonagall and Snape? And that Shepp is Harry's long lost older brother or uncle? My insanity you say? Ah yes, probably.
diggin it, keep it coming.

Dude, I was trying to write a Ginny/Draco fic and my Ginny get spouting things like Rodney, so I wrote this instead. But still, the lure of some sort of demented crossover was strong *laughs*

I can just see Rodney making calaculations against Ronon's size and their avaliable rations and panicking when he realises that is just ain't gonna work. Loved it, thanks for the laughs.

“What, like a cockroach?”

<.<; It just doesn't seem quite right to me. But your Rodney is excellently snarky. But, but.. where're his big/gigantic words?

Date: 2005-12-02 06:18 pm (UTC)let's see... how about
“Yeah, 'cause it’s not like all of you over at Athos begged my parents for help with the Genii,” he cracked.
Wow, maybe I should scrap that entire sentence all together...
And bigger words... well, Rodney doesn't say much in these two bits, but I'm also open to suggestions for that :)
Or did you mean bigger words in that sentence? 'cause John says it. So I may be confusing myself here...?
(no subject)
Date: 2005-12-02 08:06 pm (UTC)I just meant for Rodney to use big words at times. I knew that was John saying that sentence. *nods* Rodney = big word man. Use big words at least semi-often. :D
*looks back at what was just written and winces* That all sounded so eloquent...

Date: 2005-12-02 10:58 pm (UTC)urgle. If I scrap it I need him to say something else there *must ponder*
