Title: How Not To Eat An Elephant
Author:

tielan
Summary: You don't bite what's gonna bite you back. Some people learn this the hard way.
Rating: PG-13
Words: 1,650
Warnings: hostage situation (resolved)
Prompt: 45) 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)
Author's Notes: I didn't really use this prompt quite as I initially intended, so the connection with the story is somewhat tenuous. And there really should be more fic about Teyla and Vala causing havoc in Pegasus. Because they would. And it would be awesome.

Rating: PG
Warnings: Implied sexual abuse, discussion of psychological disorders
Prompt: 137) Reserve your right to think, for even to think wrongly is better than not to think at all. -- Hypatia of Alexandria (370-415)
Summary: The Atlantis team must save a village's women from a lifeless existence.
Author's Notes: Over 12k words, which is why I'm just linking to my fic journal. Thank you to

mnfiddledragon for reading it over for me! Thanks as well to everyone on my flist who replied to my question about psychiatric diagnoses and treatments. Any mistakes are, of course, entirely my own.

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,

sasha_feather,

were_duck for their time and insightful comments/criticisms, and especially

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.

Title: Order in Chaos
Author: Settiai
Rating: PG
Fandom: Stargate Atlantis
Prompt: #65 - There seems to be a kind of order in the universe, in the movement of the stars and the turning of the earth and the changing of the seasons, and even in the cycle of human life. But human life itself is almost pure chaos. Everyone takes his stance, asserts his own rights and feelings, mistaking the motives of others, and his own. - Katherine Anne Porter.
Summary: Looking back, Teyla should have known better than to trust the men on her team to behave during the ceremony.
Notes: Many thanks to

fugacious_love for beta'ing.

Prompt: #104. Winning may not be everything, but losing has little to recommend it. --Diane Feinstein.
Summary: She was questioning her sanity in ever agreeing to this. She had never seen war as a game.
Notes: Since this is over 10,000 words, I'm posting it in two parts. I've wanted to write this concept for a while - a kind of 'reverse situation' to what usually occurs in the show. Many, many thanks to my betas,

pandora_576 and

dzurlady, and many thanks to

gehayi for organising this round of the
