Culture Clash Challenge - Novaya Zemblya by Casspeach

[casspeach.livejournal.com]

Title: Novaya Zemblya
Author: casspeach
Rating: 15 maybe
Pairing: Beckett/Zelenka
Category: hmm, maybe pre-slash, no almost certainly preslash, just haven't decided whether to keep going with it in future
Challenge: Culture Clash
Notes: Bit of a broad interpretation of the challenge and cut short before it got out of hand for a challenge fic. First stab at anything like this and still relatively new to both fandom and lj.
Summary: “There is no culture here,” he continued when Carson declined to respond.

ADMIN POST: The Swimming Challenge

[cesperanza.livejournal.com]

maryavatar asked to see a challenge about "Swimming. Atlantis is surrounded by water, yet we haven't seen a single person go into it voluntarily on the show." So let's do a water challenge: your story should feature water in some significant way, and they have to get wet. Beyond that, the how, why, and where is up to you.

It's Thursday morning by my watch. Stories will be due next Thursday, March 31, at midnight.

(Note: please keep those challenge suggestions coming!)

Challenge # 4: The Swimming Challenge [Drowning, Not Waving by Saeva]

Title: Drowning, Not Waving: First Act, Third Night
Author: saeva
Summary: 'Night swims are not part of the Major's usual repertoire of tricks.' Worksafe, but mature.
Notes: This is set post-Siege, and has oblique references to Siege and a spoiler from the rumours about the second season. I stole the idea from idiotparade; she plans to play too. Beginning of the "Drowning, Not Waving" Series.

( It was the third night he'd found John wandering around )

Comments, questions, general feedback welcomed.
