Death-Defying Acts by irrelevant [amnesty 2008, not happening challenge]

Title: Death-Defying Acts
Rating: R
Pairing: Sheppard/McKay
Notes: 10,000 words, vague spoilers through season five, future-ish, as much snark as spark. This is a jigsaw: you've got most of the edge pieces, two corners and a pile of jumbled insides. Thanks as always to Q. If the fic makes any sense, she's why.

Serious doesn't live here. Not often, anyway. )

Then Rodney hit on an idea. "Fine," he said. "I'll do it -- if you'll be the elf."

In Case of Emergency, by Sophonisba [amnesty2007|ways to die/fight or flight/not happening]

-title- In Case of Emergency
-author- Sophonisba ([livejournal.com profile] saphanibaal)
-warnings- Gen. Strong language and some violence. In my head, this is part of my canon-asymptotic AU, but it isn't doing anything alternative in particular here.
-timeframe- Between "Hot Zone" and "Sanctuary."
-spoilers- For "Hot Zone," and... well, it references something that happened in early SG-1, but something that's fairly general knowledge (and I don't know the episode title, anyway).
-characters- AR-1, Miko, Zelenka, Kavanagh, Simpson, Elizabeth, Bates, et al.
-disclaimer- SGA, of course, is not mine.
-word count- 1464
-summary- The emergency failsafes in the Ancient labs are ATA-compliant.

In the movie, the device appeared to work on the same principle as the Stargate, so I see no reason why it couldn't be equally stolen here. )

Two-in-One by Foo (Amnesty 2006/Not Happening Challenge)

Title: Two-in-One
Author: Foo
Pairing: Sheppard/McKay, McKay/OFC... sort of
Rating: PG-13
Warnings: no beta, comma abuse
Summary: It started with an entry in one Ancient scientist’s journal that went something like—At last, the fruits of my labor were realized in Cerginthia, planet of the two-in-one.
Author's note: Well, this is my first fic in SGA. I also couldn't decide on which challenge to do, and it totally shows.

You're Pretty Good Looking (For a Girl) by trinityofone (Amnesty 2006/Not Happening Challenge) 1/2

Title: You're Pretty Good Looking (For a Girl)
Author: [livejournal.com profile] trinityofone
Rating: NC-17
Pairing: McKay/Sheppard
Length: ~13,300 words
Spoilers: Mostly written before S3, but now contains a few minor spoilers through 'The Game'
Warnings: Bodyswap, genderfuck, hetsex—it's a trifecta of sin!
Summary: Rodney crossed his arms under his breasts. "Well, this is stupid. And typical. Both my opportunities for hot gay sex and hot heterosexual sex are ruined!"
A/N: My intense gratitude to [livejournal.com profile] siriaeve, who helped me with this story from last Easter, when I was rambling on about the plot while lying in her sister's bed (note: said sister was not actually in said bed at the time), to this past Sunday, when I e-mailed her with the query, "Wanna beta 13,000 words of genderfuck? Oh, and Merry Christmas Eve!"

Fandom: Stargate: Atlantis
Rating: FRT
Disclaimer: I don't own concepts, characters, etc.

The Three Laws of Arthur C. Clarke (and corollaries thereof) by Sophonisba (Amnesty 2006)

-title- The Three Laws of Arthur C. Clarke (and corollaries thereof)
-author- Sophonisba, [livejournal.com profile] saphanibaal
-challenges- "This is not happening," First Contact
-warnings- General audiences. Mild scatological references. Third-person omniscient. Attempt to visually distinguish homographic heterophones. Takes place early in first season.
-characters- Ensemble; AR-1-centric
-disclaimer- The central plot device, not to mention many of the works referenced within, are of course the creation of the late great T. S. Geisel, long and justly famed as purveyor of the special crack. Also referenced are books by Eleanor Cameron and Armstrong Sperry. Two phrases of narration have been lifted from Maurice Sendak and (IIRC) Eric Flint, respectively. The corollaries to Clarke's Laws have been attributed to different people at different times, so I'm not sure whom to credit for those.
-spoilers- ..."Rising"?
-word count- 7829
-summary- They never did figure out what had caused it; it went down in the annals of Atlantis as "one of those things."

The Three Laws of Arthur C. Clarke (and corollaries thereof)

-1- When a distinguished [but elderly] scientist states that something is possible, he is almost certainly right. When he states that something is impossible, he is very probably wrong.
-2- The only way of discovering the limits of the possible is to venture a little way past them into the impossible.
-3- Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.

-- Any sufficiently advanced magic is indistinguishable from technology; any technology distinguishable from magic is insufficiently advanced; any sufficiently advanced magic is indistinguishable from a rigged demonstration; any sufficiently advanced anything is indistinguishable from utter nonsense. (Especially if it is sufficiently advanced nonsense to begin with.) )
