(no subject)

The plan was to spend the weekend reading Harry Potter but I got temporarily sidetracked by the shiny SGA fic. As a result I'm only on page 420 of Deathly Hallows so I still can't read LJ. Or any other site, for that matter.

Stuff I Read Saturday Instead Of Deathly Hallows... (SGA):
Salt Of The Earth by Dasha
75,000 words; McKay-centric, but nonetheless very much a team fic. Rating: R to PG-13

Rodney found himself sitting in the pilot's seat. On the best days, this made him a little sweaty. Instead of taking the other seat, Sheppard stood just behind him, a strong hand on Rodney's shoulder. "You'll be fine. This is jumper 7. She likes you."

There was something in his voice. Something satisfied and happy. It occurred to him then that this wasn't the usual tease about Rodney's flying. This was a present. If Sheppard had spent the better part of a month in the infirmary, *this* was what he'd be longing for. After just a few days, he'd be aching to sit in this seat again. He couldn't really believe that Rodney hadn't missed it at all. This was an attempt to help. Sheppard thought it would help a lot.

this one I forgot to link before... had me giggling like a maniac:
Whatever Can Go Wrong by friendshipper
Summary: Babysitting as a teen, Elizabeth learned that when kids are noisy, everything is okay. When they get quiet ... that's when you know they're up to something. Unfortunately, she is about to learn the same is true of scientists. 3,010 words; gen; humor


( two more character sketches: Ronon (as I've reached season two :) )

Next thing, I'll take the whole team planetside. *rubs hands* Hopefully I'll get around to drawing that today. All my work is done, I just have to sort the latest scans and email them off, and then, provided that I don't get that last-minute feedback for that last missing cover art, I'm (I almost don't dare say it) on vacation.
