I can weed clearly now the rain is gone

Thank Zod that we finally had gorgeous weather over the weekend, so I could get some outside work done.  (Yes, the weekend was several days ago, but as usual, it's taken me this long to catch up with my reading.) 

( Getting my hands dirty )

( The Emperor and his close friend, the PS2 )

( The neverending to-do list )

With that said, the long weekend is shaping up to be more fun than work.  A cookout, a trip to the zoo, and (hopefully) lots of sleeping in are on my forecast.

Up next, a warning – I've got lots of backlog stored up in my brain to post.  As always, feel free to skim.  Things to come – reposts of fic written elsewhere, my thoughts on TV, and cons.

Onward!

Wanting Contact (Shake Those Hands), SGA, McKay/Sheppard, R

Title: Wanting Contact (Shake Those Hands)
Fandom/Characters: Stargate: Atlantis, McKay/Sheppard
Rating: R
Word count: 970
Author's notes: Originally written almost two years ago for sheafrotherdon's Festival of Hands.  This was the first fic I ever posted, and I'm still rather chuffed with it.  In the interests of consolidating my work (*brief SQUEE at the notion*), I thought I'd put it up here.


( It occurred to him after the third time Elizabeth asked him if he was feeling OK, and if so he could attempt to focus on the briefing, that it might have been safer to stare at Teyla's legs. )

Punch Drunk (Lost in Ulaation), SGA, McKay/Sheppard, PG-13

Title: Punch Drunk (Lost in Ulaation)
Fandom/Characters: Stargate: Atlantis, McKay/Sheppard
Rating: PG-13
Word count: 3000

Author's Notes:  I posted this in mcsmooch back in January.  It's possible I had too much fun writing it.  It's certainly one of my favorite titles.

High praises to darsynia, my bestest brain twin.


( Alien fruit didn't make them do it, but it certainly helped. )

Corporate Spin, SGA (AU), McKay/Sheppard, PG

Title: Corporate Spin
Fandom/Characters: Stargate: Atlantis, McKay/Sheppard
Rating, Setting: PG, an Atlantis AU
Word count: 2100

Author's Notes:  I posted this in mcsmooch just a few weeks back, totally indulging myself in "write what you know" and perhaps over-indulging in the meta.  What can I say, I still have Issues with SGA's cancellation.


Corporate Spin

Step into My Parlor, Gilmore Girls RPF, Jared/Lauren, R

Title: Step into My Parlor
Fandom/Characters: Gilmore Girls RPF, Jared Padalecki/Lauren Graham
Rating: R
Word count: 1700

Author's Notes:  This was part of my Christmas writing madness, for amathela's request "Gilmore Girls, Jared Padalecki/Lauren Graham, bad judgement" in the 2008 round of prettylightsfic.  I am still battling a lingering sense of shame of having committed RPF, but I got such good stuff in return.

( Jared's a good kid. Lauren's a bad influence. )
