Angel drove his GTX convertible down into the covered parking lot and walked towards the elevator. Angel suddenly felt a sharp pain in the back of his neck and his vision went black, he tried desperately to stay conscious but the darkness wrapped itself around his mind and he slipped into unconsciousness, as someone pulled at his legs.

Angel lifted his drug filled head to look the man in the face as he was circled.

Fic: Sympathy for Eve, 13/? (NC-17)
Title: Sympathy for Eve, 13/?
Author: SGAtlantisLight
Characters: McKay, Beckett, Sheppard, Kusanagi, Zelenka, Kavanagh, Simpson
Relationships: McKay/Beckett, Sheppard/Kusanagi
Rating: NC-17
Warnings: mpreg, smut
Spoilers: None
Summary: Part 13 of the Sympathy for Eve series. When Rodney gets turned into a woman for a month, he decides to experiment, but little did he know it could have unforeseen consequences. Set somewhere in a nebulous third season after any cliffhanger-y stuff has been resolved.
Disclaimer: The characters, the setting, etc. are NOT mine, even if I wish they were.

Adults only

*SPORFLE*
Hi. I'm new. I was brought her by way of [info]nochi_san and I have a Rurouni Kenshin fic that I could not hold to myself. It's supposed to be Yumi/Sano, which I myself supported for a brief while, but...just look.



Can be seen @
http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2073745/1/

(Chapter 1 only. God-forbid if I read more. x_x)

Everyday she regretted having lived through the surgery that woman doctor gave her, she wished she died right there and then.

If I'm not mistaken...they didn't have the kind of technology to save someone who got stabbed through the HEART. Kthxbai.

Yumi then lifted her head from the water and took in a deep breath letting her hair swing back.

One word: COMMA. Two words: THIS SENTENCE SUCKS.

She couldn t bring herself to commit suicide today.

...Um, okay, WHAT? Today? Is she like, "Oh, I think I'll commit suicide tomorrow"?

Not yesterday, not tomorrow, not ever so it seemed. Something still made her hang on to this world, she didn t know what.

Obviously, it's because she doesn't want to DIE.

Tears started to glisten down her face and her face trembled as she pictured Shishio waiting on his fiery throne waiting for her to come.

That gives me such retarded mental image, like Shishio sitting on a throne that's on fire, then hopping up and down every few seconds because IT'S ON FIRE. This description does NOT work and the "tears start to glisten down her face" thing makes it sound like the tears don't glisten when they're in her eyes or anywhere else. They do when they read this fic, though. =.=

He shoulders started to shake and she brought her hands to her face sobbing. Shishio was gone and he wasn t coming back. Yumi moved her hand to her chest where she still carried the scar he gave her, the only memory she had of him.

SHISHIOOOOOOO!


MY FAVORITE PART! xDD What is this, X-Men?! "JEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAN!!!!!" Also, dear, I think you dropped your "r" on the first word of the sentence. And you dropped a comma. But obviously this fic is allergic to commas. And proper grammar. And a decent plot. They have medicine for this condition. It's called Proof Reading. It comes in easy-to-swallow tablets. *headdesk*

At first, I was overjoyed to see someone else shipped Sano/Yumi. Now...I weep.

Stargate Atlantis: Rising (Stargate Atlantis) (Stargate Atlantis) (Stargate Atlantis)

Stargate Atlantis: Rising (Stargate Atlantis) (Stargate Atlantis)

Atlantis will rise again

Following the discovery of an Ancient outpost buried deep in the Antarctic ice sheet, Stargate Command sends a new team of explorers through the Stargate to the distant Pegasus galaxy.

Emerging in an abandoned Ancient city, the team quickly confirms that they have found the Lost City of Atlantis. But, submerged beneath the sea on an alien planet, the city is in danger of catastrophic flooding unless it is raised to the surface. Things go from bad to worse when the team must confront a new enemy known as the Wraith who are bent on destroying Atlantis.

Stargate Atlantis is the exciting new spin-off of the hit TV show, Stargate SG-1. Based on the script of the pilot episode, Rising is a must-read for all fans and includes deleted scenes and dialog not seen on TV with photos from the pilot episode.
Customer Review: A fun read
I love Stargate Altantis, the show is smart and fun. The novelization of the pilot "Rising" is just the same. There are wonderful "inside their heads" moments for almost every character. This book is a quick, fun read, with lovely color photos in the center of the book.
The book is true to the script, which means that certain scenes are played out in a slightly different order than you see them in the aired pilot. Some lines are spoken by different people so that might be a little jarring if you've watched it as many times as I have. There are a few very good scenes that are not in the show that are in this book that I really liked.

So if you like novelizations, I hightly recommend this one. If you've never read one, this would be a good one to get. And if you've never seen SG-Atlantis, who knows, it might peek your interest in a really well made show.
Customer Review: Really enjoying this novelization!
I am currently reading Sally Malcolm's novelization of the Stargate Atlantis pilot episode, "Rising". I am a huge fan of this show and, therefore, very particular about the way the characters are portrayed in stories. I am finding that Ms. Malcolm has a very good grasp of the characters from the show. She writes them well and has, as far as I've read, kept the characters true to the premise of the tv show. She also has added some wonderful insights into the characters that would help explain the story to those readers who are not as familiar with the tv show. I would definitely recommend this book and I also hope that Sally Malcolm will write more Atlantis novels!

Stargate Atlantis: Reliquary (Stargate Atlantis) (Stargate Atlantis)

While exploring the unused sections of the Ancient city of Atlantis, Major John Sheppard and Dr. Rodney McKay stumble on a recording device that contains a new Stargate address. The address leads them to a world with a mysterious ruined city that may be part of an Ancient repository, or it may just be yet another trap for the unwary.

Stargate - Stargate Atlantis: The Chosen (Stargate Atlantis) (Stargate Atlantis)

Stargate Atlantis: The Chosen (Stargate Atlantis) (Stargate Atlantis)

The Stargate Atlantis team encounter a society where high priests of the local cult are able to protect the society from attacks by the Wraith by using technology left behind by the Ancients. However, the genetic ability to use the weapons has faded over successive generations, leaving the people increasingly vulnerable to attack. With the Wraith growing ever bolder in their attacks, the team must decide whether to inoculate the priests with a gene therapy which will restore their abilities, and also decide whether or not to withhold the therapy from the rest of the population in order to shore up the dominance of the high priests.

Stargate Atlantis

I have a new (Stargate) crack pairing


I have a new crack pairing
The moment Kakashi/Gai clicks into my deranged little brain, I go searching for it on FF.net. Almost immediately, I find a good one and a bad-but-I've-seen-worse-god-that's-depressing one. From the latter, paragraphs inserted to make the world a better place:

But you don t know what I want to say! Naruto whined.

And I don t care! She hauled.

Well I bet it will never work. I bet Gai has to ask Kakashi out on a date. Naruto told her in her face.


Maybe it's because I frequent a forum that regularly makes use of the expression "die in the face," but "told her in her face" is seriously cracking me up.

Also...hauled?

Fandom:Natuto
From the Pit. Everybody Has A Bad Day

This is supposed to be a humor fic, and might actually be funny. Unfortunately, I couldn't get past the first few paragraphs. Why do bad!fic writers feel the need to tell us every excrutiating detail of a character's appearance when they are introduced for the first time?

The first three paragraphs...

Three voices could be heard within a room that belonged to a thirteen year old that goes by the name 'Nikky' though her real name was Nicole that had mid-back length dark brown hair that was set up into layers and had dark blue eyes that changes color to green, light tan skin and at the moment wore nothing but a black shirt that said 'I like to blow up things', dark green baggy cargo pants and only white socks. "Dest! Come down! You'll see kiba soon jeez.." said Nicole towards another thirteen year old, as she clicked the 'episode 1' of Naruto for her friend Destiny whom she gave a nickname to which was, 'dest'.

Destiny, a girl that had shoulder length brown hair that had a tint of red in it, light brown skin and had dark brown eyes. She at the moment wore a white t-shirt, tan pants and socks as well. "Fine! I can wait for kiba-kun!" She said, crossing her arms as she sat back down on the beanbag. Dest was the more, crazy girl in the group. Though she has issues when dealing with boys, as Nikky puts it 'Boy obesity'. She just now got started into the show, after Nikky had told her about Kiba, saying there alike cause she loves dogs.

And there was one more in the group. Her name was Chandra, though Nicole and Destiny called her Chan, just for laughs. Chandra was the quiet one, never talked much only when she felt like telling someone about what happen in her life. She had mid-neck length dark red hair that was dyed a year ago and cut. Always spiking it with gel. Wear a black pull-over hoodie, black baggy t-shirt, a spiked collar around her neck, and a pair of baggy black cargo pants, also slight pale skin and dark green eyes. "Put it on full screen Nicole." she said, leaning over to see it better as she poked her dark purple glasses back up her nose with her index finger.


That's as far as I got.

First there was the blockbuster Stargate movie, then the smash hit TV series Stargate SG-1, and now there s the equally successful spinoff show: Stargate Atlantis!

A new Stargate team embarks on a dangerous mission to a distant galaxy, where they discover a mythical lost city and a deadly new enemy the Wraith. New characters, new planets, new alien encounters: but the same irresistible brand of Stargate adventure!

Here s the official companion to the first season, packed with behind the scenes interviews, an episode guide and scores of photos, including a 16pp colour gallery.
Customer Review: Good Stuff For Stargate Fans
One of my criteria for judging an episode guide is: Does it have anything to say about various minor recurring characters? Because typically I like them more than the main cast. So my question in reading this book was, did it find time to include an entry on Dr. Zelenka? Yes. Yes, it did. And all was right with the world.

This is a guide to the first season of "Stargate Atlantis", a spin-off, of course, to the popular "Stargate: SG-1" series. In this show, our group of heroes and heroines is stuck in the Pegasus Galaxy after a one-way transgalactic hop via a super-powered gate dial-out from the SGC on Earth. They hope to find the lost city of Atlantis, home of the long-ago-ascended Ancients, and find it they do. Unfortunately, they also discover that the Ancients bailed out of Pegasus some 10,000 years ago after accidentally creating their own nemeses in the form of the Wraith, who really enjoy treating humans as tasty lifeforce snacks. And while there are various human-settled worlds still to be found, not all of them are delighted to see the folks from Earth show up, especially once word gets around that the Stargate team sort of accidentally woke the Wraith back up way before schedule.

This book presents a brief summary of each episode of the first season, along with some minimal cast and crew notes. There's also commentary provided by cast and crew about what went on in the making of the episodes, what their original intentions had been, what worked and what didn't. There are brief character sketches of the main cast, which really have much more to do with details on the actors and how they got the roles and how they approach them.

Also included is a section on the development of the show and another on some of the departments or key players (stunts, production design) behind the scenes. A lot of photos are provided, mostly in black and white but a few publicity stills in color.

I had very low expectations for this book based on previous Stargate episode guides, but it very much exceeded them. It's not a classic of its kind nor indispensable, but if you're a keen fan of the show and you really want to know some of the details about what it takes to put together an episode, you won't be disappointed.


Stargate Atlantis: The Chosen (Stargate) (Stargate Atlantis) (Stargate Atlantis)

Stargate Atlantis: The Chosen (Stargate Atlantis) (Stargate Atlantis)

The Stargate Atlantis team encounter a society where high priests of the local cult are able to protect the society from attacks by the Wraith by using technology left behind by the Ancients. However, the genetic ability to use the weapons has faded over successive generations, leaving the people increasingly vulnerable to attack. With the Wraith growing ever bolder in their attacks, the team must decide whether to inoculate the priests with a gene therapy which will restore their abilities, and also decide whether or not to withhold the therapy from the rest of the population in order to shore up the dominance of the high priests.

Stargate Atlantis - Season 3 Wishlist


Season 3 Wishlist
1.) I want to see Carson whumped on. Injure him, give him a dose of the old retrovirus, something. It's always good drama to see the one guy who can fix it be the one who needs someone to fix it for him.

2.) More Radek. Specifically, more Radek and Sheppard. IMHO their moments were about the only thing worth watching in Grace Under Pressure. They're really cute together.

3.) Down time/personal moments. We need more of this. We get occasional comments about people's personal lives or interests, but can we get a few moments of the team watching a movie together before all hell breaks loose or at the end of the ep decompressing in someone's quarters with beer and pretzels?

4.) More Carson and John together. (yeah, like you couldn't see that coming from me. :)

5.) More humor. Duet was great. More like that, please.

6.) Daniel on Atlantis. Seriously, the poor boy's been trying for years.

7.) Follow up on "The Tower". Was there a baby? If so, what's John gonna do about it?

8.) Closure on Ford. Either kill him off or fix him or something, but I really hate the nebulous could be/might not be dead thing.

9.) And the cracked out thing I won't get but *really* want... Rodney becoming Gregory House's patient. The snark would hit astronomical levels! :) :) :)

Eyes, eyes, eyes...
Love the new theme here! What can I say about the boys of Atlantis? Well, it's all in the eyes, as [info]thegrrrl2002 said...

So, I present some caps of Rodney, Radek, Carson, John and Lorne:



Let's start with Lorne:

I just love his eyes here as he tells Elizabeth that it'll take time to find Team Shepard! Oh my, such pretty eyes...


I know that I say this a lot, but I'll get tired of saying it; I just love his green eyes.


One of those Carson moments when I love his baby blues!


And one of Ronon; the concern he shows for Sheppard when he's in the infirmary. There's a certain gentleness there!


Of course, where would I be if I didn't mention Rodney... Here's one of my favourites from Trinity, my fave episode!


And I'm still biased... but I can't help liking David Hewlett's eyes when he portrays Rodney...


A confrontation with Caldwell - I really really love Joe's portrayal of Sheppard and though not my favourite character initially, I really dig Sheppard! And once again, such lovely eyes..


More of John Sheppard!


And this is one of my favourites - I love David Nykl and just the way he plays Radek... This is from Allies, as he conveys the truth about the Wraith to Elizabeth!


Ok and then there's arms... ok, I mean, Rodney's arms...

Hehe, a gratuitous arm shot!


I changed the colouring slightly here, but I just loved this scene with Radek - Radek's smile, Rodney's arms and that pointy thing that only Hewlett does best!


And my last pic - gratuituous arm porn:


EDIT:
Strictly speaking, this is from Season 1 but
[info]newkidfan was the first to point it out. I then made a re-cap of it...




I should add that if you like them and want to take them, feel free to. I made them out of the HR res files that my cousin Bit gave me, and all I did was play around with the colourings. Some of them have been made into my banner for LJ but let me know if you want the original caps!

Stargate Atlantis: Rising (Stargate Atlantis) (Stargate Atlantis) (Stargate)

Stargate Atlantis: Rising (Stargate Atlantis) (Stargate Atlantis)

Atlantis will rise again

Following the discovery of an Ancient outpost buried deep in the Antarctic ice sheet, Stargate Command sends a new team of explorers through the Stargate to the distant Pegasus galaxy.

Emerging in an abandoned Ancient city, the team quickly confirms that they have found the Lost City of Atlantis. But, submerged beneath the sea on an alien planet, the city is in danger of catastrophic flooding unless it is raised to the surface. Things go from bad to worse when the team must confront a new enemy known as the Wraith who are bent on destroying Atlantis.

Stargate Atlantis is the exciting new spin-off of the hit TV show, Stargate SG-1. Based on the script of the pilot episode, Rising is a must-read for all fans and includes deleted scenes and dialog not seen on TV with photos from the pilot episode.
Customer Review: A fun read
I love Stargate Altantis, the show is smart and fun. The novelization of the pilot "Rising" is just the same. There are wonderful "inside their heads" moments for almost every character. This book is a quick, fun read, with lovely color photos in the center of the book.
The book is true to the script, which means that certain scenes are played out in a slightly different order than you see them in the aired pilot. Some lines are spoken by different people so that might be a little jarring if you've watched it as many times as I have. There are a few very good scenes that are not in the show that are in this book that I really liked.

So if you like novelizations, I hightly recommend this one. If you've never read one, this would be a good one to get. And if you've never seen SG-Atlantis, who knows, it might peek your interest in a really well made show.
Customer Review: Really enjoying this novelization!
I am currently reading Sally Malcolm's novelization of the Stargate Atlantis pilot episode, "Rising". I am a huge fan of this show and, therefore, very particular about the way the characters are portrayed in stories. I am finding that Ms. Malcolm has a very good grasp of the characters from the show. She writes them well and has, as far as I've read, kept the characters true to the premise of the tv show. She also has added some wonderful insights into the characters that would help explain the story to those readers who are not as familiar with the tv show. I would definitely recommend this book and I also hope that Sally Malcolm will write more Atlantis novels!

While exploring the unused sections of the Ancient city of Atlantis, Major John Sheppard and Dr. Rodney McKay stumble on a recording device that contains a new Stargate address. The address leads them to a world with a mysterious ruined city that may be part of an Ancient repository, or it may just be yet another trap for the unwary.
