A/N: The challenge originated with an author Kiera Marcos as a celebration when she reached one million words. The original challenge was given on a friend-locked site and cannot be linked to. All drabbles contain one line from her stories and a few are based on her worlds within the fandom, and all are under 200 words to meet the requirements.

Drabble One

“Scientists do not whine.”

“Which scientists?” Ronan asked.

McKay frowned, “All scientists. Have I taught you nothing? They need theory, experiments, and proof, but no whining is allowed.”

“You whine.”

“I most certainly do not!” He said affronted. “I, more than anyone else in this galaxy, know how taxing the life of a scientist is and that years of hard work and intuition are the only things worth talking about. I lecture, instruct, reprimand and demand the best. Where on that list do you see the word whine? Nowhere, and I’ll tell you why, because Dr. Rodney McKay is a paragon of forbearance and…”

“McKay, you need to re-test for weaponry.”

“What, now? But there’s pudding and it won’t be here when I get back.”

“Don’t whine. I booked the firing range and you’re not getting out of it.”

Ronan shrugged and grabbed the second desert cup off the still protesting scientist’s tray with a smirk.


Drabble Two

“Yep. It’s a dog eat dog world you know. Can’t be afraid to pimp out your own father for cake.”

Patrick Sheppard winced when he heard his grandson say those words with satisfaction. There was no doubt that both John and Rodney deserved the pimping since this was the "Welcome Back Atlantis" party. The selection of cake was magnificent as well covering many of the national delicacies of the world, but there were times when he wished Sebastian hadn’t picked up his adopted father’s bluntness.

Like when he was speaking to the President and the Prime Minister of Canada, even if they did seem to agree.


Drabble Three

“So, you trained your astrophysicist to take headshots?”

“No sir, I did not.”

“You are in charge of training all the civilians on base in weapons before they step through the gate?”

“Yes, sir.”

“And I see here that Dr. McKay recently re-qualified for weaponry.”

“Yes, sir, he did, but I removed myself from his qualification testing. That was carried out by Maj. Lorne.”

It took over an hour for the colonel to make it out of the IOA’s “Oversight Room”, and General O’Neill was leaning against the wall as he left.

“You really didn’t train him to do that?”

“Of course not, sir. I can only imagine how crazy McKay would drive an instructor who had to teach him something like that, and as a Base Commander I’ve learned how to delegate.”

“Hmm...”

“I made Ronan do it.”


Drabble Four

The whole team sprinted through the gate like the hounds of hell were nipping at their feet. Chuck shut it down as fast as he could, but they still saw at least five thuds against the shield.

Sheppard looked at the gate room balcony and announced; “There’s only one woman out there that scared me like that priestess. She was absolutely vicious. I had to spend all of my time with her. I had to account for every cent I had. She hated my friends, my job and while I was in Iraq she even sold my car. I hoped I wouldn’t make it back when I was shot down.”

“Did you just compare your ex-wife to a terrorist who held you hostage in a cave for a month?” Rodney demanded.

“Hmm? No, Nancy was fine. I was talking about her mother.”


Drabble Five

Jim Ellison stepped through the Stargate and shook his head. He hated wormhole travel. It left him feeling so out of sorts, and travel to another galaxy made him… cranky. Blair stumbled out of the event horizon behind him and gave that little huff that emphasized the adrenaline/arousal pouring out of his scent. He hoped they’d get through whatever stuff they needed to do quickly so he could get some solo time with his guide.

Sheppard was their greeting party. Jim had read the mission briefings and knew things had happened to the man that left him a little iffy on the human scale, but this was a whole different scale than the Jaffa at the SGC. There was a smirk on the man’s face he would have a hard time ignoring on anyone else’s face. There was a subtle flare of his nostrils that showed he was scenting the air.

“Should I show the two of you to your room?”

He shot him a sharp eyed glance, “You’re a dangerous man, Colonel.”


Drabble Six

It started out as a slap fight over the placement of a decimal point, and then quickly grew to involve five scientists and a marine who had to call for back-up. John managed to control his laughter in the infirmary where no less than three tetanus shots were administered, but not one single punch had been thrown. He held back through the General’s public lecture, and the private one. Watching all the scientists involved cower from their new instructor in self defense was harder, although to be fair, Teyla may have gotten meaner since she gave birth.

He finally lost it on the way out of the mountain when two scientists and the marine glared at McKay until he reached the elevator. “Who knew you’d be a biter?” John chuckled.


Drabble Seven

John loved to hear Rodney croon.

“It’s stupid how hot you are. I mean, just look at you, you’re almost too perfect to touch.”

Sheppard shifted forward, completely intent on what he was saying.

“You’re everything that’s good in my world, other than science. The two of you are the light that fills my soul, and I don’t know that I could ever possibly succeed without you here with me. I know you were gone in the past and I could see the loss on every face here. The whole expedition was effected, but no one felt it more keenly than I did.”

“Rodney,” John said. “We were supposed to be in the briefing room five minutes ago. Can you stop making love to your coffee now?”


Drabble Eight

“I’ll be sure to verbally abuse her most stringently,” Rodney promised.

John recognized that tone in McKay’s voice and stayed hidden around the corner. The Doctor had a nearly no skill when it came to wooing the opposite sex, but he also had firm ideas about the equality between men and women on Atlantis. The tone he just heard meant someone had tripped a verbal bomb.

“Thank you.”

“Yes, I can’t believe she didn’t catch a moron like you at the gate. The fact that you made it all the way to a white board means she’s slipping. I do hope you haven’t unpacked yet, the dial out to Earth is at 1400 and you need to go through. I don’t plan on pissing Col. Caldwell off by sticking you in his ship for another three weeks.”

John watched the newly fired scientist stomp past him red-faced and muttering. He stepped around the corner to see Rodney back at work and Radek erasing a board.

“He called Teyla a warrior princess didn’t he?”
