Stargate LAS Roundup

$

In Round One of [info]stargate_las, I wrote 11 stories (7 SG1, 3 SGA and 1 SGU), mostly of the gen variety, and got six wins divided across all three series. I'm not doing Round Two, because I want to focus on my WIPs, but in general I thought it was a lot of fun, and was a great way to start writing again. Also, I learned that I kind of have a habit of playing fast and loose with time.

So, here's the roundup. Some stories were posted as I went along, but many were recently added and back-dated so as not to clog flists. I streamlined and standardized the boilerplate info, but it's still just too long to do without a cut. So, I'm just going to divide it up by series and give a little teaser, so there's an idea of what to expect.

Stargate SG-1
In this category, Cam, Daniel and Vala all get some interesting backstories, Jonas Quinn has a little bit of a breakdown, Teal'c compares Tauri children to Jaffa children, Divide and Conquer ends differently (but not really) and there's even a little bit of the smoochies (in a mildly tragic way).


Title: Looking Back
Character/Relationships: Daniel Jackson
Warnings: Hostage situation (nothing worse than has been on the show), childhood bullying, a contrived situation and bad made-up names.
Notes: Winner of LAS Challenge 2: A character does something brave but stupid.
Daniel had always been good at hiding. It wasn't cowardice; it was pragmatism.

Title: Crashing Down
Character/Relationships: Cameron Mitchell
Warnings: It might be a uncomfortable for anyone who's had a seriously ill/injured loved one recently,
Notes: Entry for LAS Challenge 4: A character at 10.
Cam's world came crashing down when he was 10 years old.

Title: Love, Hope and Sacrifice
Character/Relationships: Samantha Carter, Teal'c, Martouf
Warnings: Canon character death
Notes: Entry for LAS Challenge 6: Change a Canon Scene
There are some things Teal'c can't let his friends do.

Title: Speechless
Character/Relationships: Daniel/Sha're, Jack, Daniel
Warnings: Sha're is still dead, and I guess that's sad?
Notes: Winner of LAS Challenge 8: What the HELL was I thinking?
A couple dozen languages still can't supply Daniel with the right words to explain himself to Jack.

Title: Sound
Character/Relationships: Jonas Quinn, Dr. MacKenzie
Warnings: It's not a happy flashback, mentions of canon character death.
Notes: Winner of LAS Challenge 10: Flashback
"It was 15 shots -- I can hear them, plain as day -- and with each one I could feel my heart beating faster"

Title: You Always Hurt the Ones You Love
Character/Relationships: Teal'c
Warnings: None.
Notes: Winner of LAS Challenge 11: The Things We Do for Family
Toppling a god -- even a false one -- took greater effort than anything he had ever attempted and Teal'c could not afford the luxury of worrying over the ones he loved.

Title: Tricks of the Trade
Character/Relationships: Vala
Warnings: None
Notes: Winner of LAS Challenge 14: Breaking In.
Vala began learning the art of thievery when she was very young.

Stargate Atlantis
In this category, Rodney invokes the Three Stooges, argues with Sheppard over appropriate gifts for children, and Ronon learns to dance.

Title: Stooge
Character/Relationships: Rodney, team
Warning: None.
Notes: Entry for LAS Challenge 5: Alone. This is probably the closest to comedy I will ever get.
Trapped alone in a Genii bunker, Rodney turns to thoughts of his team and childhood memories to make his escape

Title: Just One Question
Character/Relationships: Carter, McKay, Sheppard
Warnings: None
Notes: Entry for LAS Challenge 12: As American as Apple Pie.
Gift-giving is hard.

Title: Let's Dance
Character/Relationships: Ronon/Melena (in flashback)
Warnings: If you're interested, you probably know what happened to Sateda and Melena.
Notes: Winner for LAS Challenge 13: Dancing the Night Away. Set pre-series, during Ronon's time as a runner.
Laughter and music filled the air, and an admirer's glance was all it took to get the townsfolk dancing.


Stargate Universe
In this category, Greer runs, because that's what he does. But not in a cowardly way.

Title: Run-time Error
Character/Relationships: Greer, OMC
Warnings: None
Notes: Winner of LAS Challenge 1: Routine:
I have no summary or single line from the story that will explain it. Just click the link for Greer being awesome.
