Title: Those Who Favor Fire
Author: [livejournal.com profile] anna_bird
Fandom: Stargate Atlantis
Rating: PG-13
Warnings: Some violence and swearing.
Prompt: No. 79: Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure or nothing. -- Helen Keller (1880-1968), deaf-blind American author, lecturer and political activist. She campaigned for women's suffrage, pacifism, people with disabilities, the Industrial Workers of the World (the IWW, or the "Wobblies"), socialism and birth control, and helped found the ACLU.
Summary: AU, after Enemy at the Gate (series finale). The City of Atlantis and inhabitants have returned to Pegasus from their heroic rescue of the planet Earth at the hands of the Wraith. But something is wrong.
Author's Notes: Roughly 17,000 words and posted in three parts! I strayed quite a bit from the original prompt, but I do think it serves as a good quote about the character of Teyla and her people in general. Boatloads of thanks to the best betas money cannot buy, [livejournal.com profile] sasha_feather, [livejournal.com profile] were_duck for their time and insightful comments/criticisms, and especially [livejournal.com profile] taste_is_sweet for her big damn overhaul, helpful comments and a better, much more interesting title (which comes from this poem). Thank you, ladies. I really appreciate it. Any inconsistencies or errors are mine alone.
