-title- Born To Carry On: sister
-author- Sophonisba (saphanibaal)
-ratings/warnings- Gen. No warnings necessary that I can think of.
-timeframe- The first week in Atlantis.
-spoilers- Uh... "Rising"?
-characters- Teyla, Miko, Jinto
-notes- A bit of spackleness.
-disclaimer- Completely and utterly not mine, except perhaps for my conception of the Athosians. Oh, and Miko's nephew isn't mine either, he belongs to Aoyama Gosho.
-word count- 871
-summary- Jinto has a gift in mind, and goes after it.

( With this many cultures in one place... )

-title- Ex Machina (Redux)
-author- Sophonisba (saphanibaal)
-warnings- Gen. AU. Crossover, oh my yes. Variations in orthography to denote variations in understanding or meaning.
-timeframe- After "Sanctuary."
-spoilers- Well... more or less through "Progeny."
-characters- Teyla, Miko, an Ancient ^_^ and... others.
-disclaimer- Not mine. Completely and utterly not mine. Full disclaimer at end, so as to avoid spoilers.
-notes- This follows directly on the heels of the first part of Ex Machina. Part of my pet asymptotic-to-canon AU; there's also a slight reference to a bit of a fic I wrote called "Second String" (which would probably be much clearer if I'd gotten around to revising that last).
-word count- 10041
-summary- The further wanderings of Teyla and the helpful and enthusiastic Ancient (and knight-guardsman of Canada) that she met in the halls of Atlantis, and who they met upon them.

( The story so far: Teyla has happened across an Ancient who apparently has become a citizen of Canada (!) and who has been... persuaded... to come to Atlantis and turn off, shut down, or warn for various things the Ancients really should have taken care of before they left; when she asked, he said that his pre-Ascension name was Glaucus. He is very thorough. )

-title- Paradigmata ~ We Break Shit ~
-author- Sophonisba (saphanibaal)
-ratings/warnings- Occasional strong language (note the title); a digression into opera at one point; the Gatespeak hypothesis.
-timeframe- The first scene takes place between 2-05 "Condemned" and 2-06 "Trinity," and the last some time after 3-04 "Sateda."
-spoilers- Er... perhaps for "Runner" and "Trinity"? If they even still count as spoilers?
-characters- Ronon, his team, Elizabeth, Lorne, and cameos by Chuck and Zelenka.
-notes- This was rather heavily inspired by a show I've recently grown fond of, called Human Wrecking Balls. (I still want to see them break up a BMV branch.)
-disclaimer- You should all know by now whom SGA belongs to, and that I am not among them. Also referenced within are reasonably famous creations of Stephen J. Cannell, of Tôhô Studios, and of Wolfgang A. Mozart. (I'm not really sure who owns Human Wrecking Balls off the top of my head, or I'd credit them, too.)
-word count- 1787
-summary- Watching alien entertainment. Or entertainment from your homeland. It's all in how you look at it, really.

( As is the interpretation thereof. )

-title- Five (Open) Secrets Brought From Earth To Atlantis
-author- Sophonisba (saphanibaal)
-ratings/warnings- Part of my pet asymptotic-to-canon AU. Some crossoveriness. Discussion of matter that may be disturbing.
-timeframe- From well before the show began to, oh, early in the fourth season.
-spoilers- Through the beginning of fourth season. Also for SG-1's "New Order" and Buffy the Vampire Slayer's "Graduation Day."
-characters- Ford, Elizabeth, Jeanie, Sam, Sheppard, Holland, Rodney, Kavanagh, Teyla, cameos
-disclaimer- SGA, of course, is not mine. Nor are any of the other sources herein referenced; they belong to Joss Whedon et al., Raymond Chandler, Ten Thirteen Productions, Metro-Goldwyn-Meyer, Dorothy L. Sayers, Joe Darion, Lee David Zlotoff et al., Manly Wade Wellman, and Gainax.
-word count- 4044
-summary- Pretty much what the title says. ^_^

( To say nothing of the secrets they keep HIDDEN. )

-title- Days of the Dead: The First Day (Animaliorum)
-author- Sophonisba (saphanibaal)
-ratings/warnings- Mostly gen; mention of past Ronon/Melena.
-timeframe- Shortly before "Aurora."
-spoilers- For "Sateda," obviously.
-characters- Ronon, Sheppard, Melena, OCs, a few cameos
-disclaimer- SGA, of course, is not mine. Feel free to borrow any of the OCs you like. One of Ronon's lines was inspired by Terry Pratchett.
-word count- 2558
-summary- Ronon had found out where the ritual room was in Atlantis well before the summer had begun.

( The first day. )

-title- Face Afire
-author- Sophonisba (saphanibaal)
-ratings/warnings- Gen; mention of erotica.
-timeframe- Shortly after "Sanctuary."
-spoilers- I don't think this has any; it takes place right after another story of mine called "Secondary Source," but you shouldn't need to have read that one.
-characters- Grodin, Elizabeth, Heightmeyer, AR-1, Bates, etc.
-disclaimer- SGA, of course, is not mine. Miko's brother Kenji and his idea of barter goods are, but hey, feel free.
-word count- 566
-summary- "Could maybe one of you ladies make sure Dr. Kusanagi hasn't become Atlantis's first case of spontaneous human combustion in millennia?"

( Given that it's Atlantis, this might not be as silly a question as it turned out to be. )

-title- Born to Carry On: Tallit Ossaring
-author- Sophonisba (saphanibaal)
-warnings- Pre-industrial takes on age of consent and infant mortality. Not for those with hot buttons on either one. M/f sexual contact.
-timeframe- Preseries; set after an earlier story of mine, "Forever Young."
-spoilers- ...let us say through the end of the second season, to be safe (I don't think a name, devoid of context, should count as a spoiler).
-characters- Teyla, Halling, Charin, Jinto, Tagan, Sora, Kanaan, OCs
-disclaimer- SGA, of course, is not mine. The attitudes of the Athosians should not be taken as ones shared by the author. The Responsibility was inspired by that in Diane Duane's Tale of the Five; I considered renaming it, but could not think of a better way to phrase it, and while I think it makes a great deal of sense applied to Pegasus, I did not wish to obscure my sources. The Athosian's pre-Trev-Xenios attitudes towards foreigners were inspired by a story by miriel whose title I have forgotten and whose plot I cannot; Geron's alk story was inspired by this and by Arlo Guthrie's When Mooses Go Walking (sic), which I heard him recite on NPR the other day. The title of this work is drawn from a song called "And When I Die" by Laura Nyro, excellently sung by Peter, Paul, and Mary.
-word count- 4950
-summary- "You have been saying," Teyla said firmly if a little bluntly, "that you would like to be a father now, when the peak of your energy is upon you. I, in my turn, would prefer to fulfill my Responsibility as soon as may be, that it not hang over my head."

( I conceived what, in toto, would have been rather a long story; this first part consented to be completed in the alloted time. )

-title- Guises in Four Seasons: Summer
-author- Sophonisba (saphanibaal)
-warnings- Some strong language. Takes place in my pet diverging-reality AU, where Sheppard isn't quite Sheppard. Does it ever. Part of a loose series; it shouldn't be necessary to read the other parts, but they're here, here, and here should one wish to do so.
-timeframe- About the end of second year.
-spoilers- Through the beginning of third year, just to be safe.
-characters- Sheppard, Ford
-disclaimer- SGA, of course, is not mine. Nor are any of the tales I have drawn on, although most of them are public domain by now. Certain turns of phrase are directly borrowed from C. S. Lewis, A. A. Milne, and E. Nesbit; another, more loosely, from Robert E. Howard.
-word count- 1408
-summary- Even for the most necessary of conversations, Sheppard still finds it easier to talk about something peripherally related to the subject. At least this time it isn't football.

( And here at last is the set complete. )

-title- Second String; or, Loyauté me lie: a unified field theory of sheppard
-author- Sophonisba (saphanibaal)
-warnings- Mostly gen in plotline, with background het. Mentions of slash. Background crossoveriness. Strong language.
-timeframe- Late fourth season.
-spoilers- Up through "Outcast."
-characters- Sheppards original (in both senses of the word) and borrowed, various cameos.
-disclaimer- SGA, of course, is not mine, but belongs to MGM. So do some of the other works referenced herein. I am not sure of the current owners of the others, but can name among their various creators L. Frank Baum, Walt Disney, Bob Kane, Ian Fleming, Manly Wade Wellman, Jim Henson, George Lucas, Glen Larson, Don Bellisario, and William Goldman. Other such works include Doctor Who, MacGyver, and He-Man. The "Would Tegan Kick My Ass?" test was inspired by WKKMA. Leslie Fish's song "Hope Eyrie" is quoted from, although my mental image was more of the Julia Ecklar cover.
-word count- 9365
-summary- The first time Dave heard of his brother was well before he ever met him.

( Second String )

-title- Secondary Source
-author- Sophonisba (saphanibaal)
-warnings- Gen. Some minor strong language. A number of literary/popular references, and a lot of talking heads.
-timeframe- Tag to "Sanctuary."
-spoilers- Effectually all of first season.
-characters- Teyla, Ford, Sheppard, Elizabeth, Corrigan, Miko, and a number of OCs.
-disclaimer- SGA, of course, is not mine. Nor is the rest of the Stargate franchise, for that matter. Nor is the game "Final Fantasy VII" or any worldbuilding elements thereof which may have been seized upon as intriguingly similar. Nor, of course, are any of the fictional creations to whom parallels are being drawn.
-word count- 2127
-summary- "Everything one is," when shared, consists of a large number of data; many of which have indefinable anthropological value.

( This is, essentially, spackle. )
