Title: A Trick of the Mind
Author: terrie01
Summary: There are better ways of dealing with stress than yelling.

Radek Zelenka could set things on fire with his mind. He'd never actually used the ability, not on purpose, but the knowledge that he could was a comfort. When Rodney's ranting took on a shrill tone or Kavanagh went on a little too long, he would remind himself that he could end the noise with only a thought.

And if experiments and equipment tended to explode or catch fire whenever he got frustrated, no one seemed to notice. Probably because thy were too busy staring in fascination at Rodney's latest tirade about the incompetncy of the science staff. And if he sometimes had the urge to do some yelling himself, well, it was okay that he couldn't. Because what he could do was so much more interesting.

Aww, nice. I can see Radek being comforted by the knowledge that he *could* do it, rather than actually doing it.

Heh. I could totally see Radek as a pryo. :-)
